The frequency(f) of this photon : 1 x 10¹⁵ Hz
Further explanation
Radiation energy is absorbed by photons
The energy in one photon can be formulated as
[tex]\large{\boxed{\bold{E\:=\:h\:.\:f}}}[/tex]
Where
h = Planck's constant (6,626.10⁻³⁴ Js)
f = Frequency of electromagnetic waves
f = c / λ
c = speed of light
= 3.10⁸
λ = wavelength
A photon has a wavelength of 299 nm.
λ = 299 nm = 299 x 10⁻⁹ m = 2.99 x 10⁻⁷ m
The frequency :
[tex]\tt f=\dfrac{3.10^8}{2.99\times 10^{-7}}\\\\f=\boxed{\bold{1\times 10^{15}~Hz}}[/tex]
