Calculate Frequency of Light

Formula

To calculate the Frequency of Light:

\[ f = \frac{c}{w} \]

Where:

Frequency of Light Definition

The frequency of light is defined as the inverse of the total time it takes light to travel one wavelength. It is a measure of how many wavelengths pass a given point per second and is typically measured in Hertz (Hz).

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ f = \frac{299792458}{500 \times 10^{-9}} = 5.99584916 \times 10^{14} \text{ Hz} \]

The Frequency of Light is approximately \(5.99584916 \times 10^{14}\) Hz.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ f = \frac{299792458}{700 \times 10^{-9}} = 4.2827494 \times 10^{14} \text{ Hz} \]

The Frequency of Light is approximately \(4.2827494 \times 10^{14}\) Hz.
