Visible light has an average wavelength of 550 nm. How much energy would be in this wavelength of light? 5 x 10-19

E = 3.6×10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength = 550 nm  (550 ×10⁻⁹ nm)

Energy of wave = ?

Solution:

Formula:

E = h c/λ

c = 3×10⁸ m/s

h = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js

Now we will put the values in formula.

E = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js × 3×10⁸ m/s /550 ×10⁻⁹ nm

E = 19.89×10⁻²⁶ J.m /550 ×10⁻⁹ nm

E = 0.036×10⁻¹⁷ J

E = 3.6×10⁻¹⁹ J
