Best Answer

Assume that the question is referring to electromagnetic radiation, traveling in vacuum.

Speed = 3 x 108 meters/sec

Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) = (3 x 108) / (1,150 x 10-9) = 2.6087 x 1014 Hz

= 2.609 x 105 GHz (rounded)

What type of radiation causes sun burn?

UV, or "ultraviolet" radiation from the Sun. UV radiation has a higher frequency and shorter wavelength than visible light does, and carries more energy.


What are 3 forms of Electromagnetic Radiation with a wavelength less than visible light?

The wavelength of electromagnetic radiation is a measure of the frequency; multiply the frequency times the wavelength, and the answer is ALWAYS the "Speed of Light", which we abbreviate as "c". All of these are different "bands" of electromagnetic energy. Radio is the longest wavelength and lowest frequency. "Low Frequency" is the lowest, followed by "high frequency", "very high frequency" or VHF, "ultra-high frequency" or UHF. Beyond that are microwaves, and then heat, then "infrared", and then visible light. Higher frequency (and shorter wavelengths) than light are "ultra-violet", then X-rays, and then "gamma rays".


What is the name for the change in the star's spectrum when it moves away from earth?

That is called "redshift". The frequency of the radiation decreases.


How do you set up the equation for a FM radio has a frequency of 88.9 Mhz determine the wavelength in nanometers?

To determine the wavelenght of a signal, invert it. This would take 88.9 MHz, invert it (1/88.9) giving you 0.01125 microseconds. Now, determine the speed of the signal. Generally, for an FM radio signal, the speed is the speed of light, which is 3 x 108 meters per second. So multiply 0.01125 by 3 x 108, giving 3.75 meters. The question asked for nanometers, so multiply by 1 x 109, giving 3.75 x 109 nanometers for a signal frequency of 88.9 MHz.

What is the frequency range of visible radiation?

The frequency range of visible radiation is approximately 400 THz (terahertz) to 790 THz. This corresponds to wavelengths of approximately 380 nanometers to 750 nanometers.


How many meters in 1150 nanometers?

Do am radio waves have a lower frequency then ultra violet radiation?

Radio waves and ultraviolet waves are the same physical phenomenon.The difference is that radio waves have a much greater wavelength.(That's equivalent to saying that they have a much lower frequency.)


What is the wave frequency for 400 nanometers?

The wave frequency for 400 nanometers is approximately 750 terahertz (THz). This can be calculated using the formula: frequency = speed of light / wavelength.

The wave length is 670nm what is the frequency of the radiation?

The frequency of the radiation can be calculated using the formula: frequency (Hz) = speed of light (m/s) / wavelength (m). Given that the speed of light is approximately 3.00 x 10^8 m/s, converting the wavelength from nanometers to meters (670nm = 670 x 10^-9 m) and plugging the values into the formula, the frequency would be approximately 4.48 x 10^14 Hz.


What is the frequency of 506 nanometers?

The frequency of light with a wavelength of 506 nanometers is approximately 594 THz (terahertz). This can be calculated using the formula: frequency = speed of light / wavelength, where the speed of light is about 3.00 x 10^8 meters per second.
