Hi there.
00:04
When working with the electromagnetic spectrum, there are several equations that we can use, depending on what we're trying to calculate, that relate energy, frequency, speed of light, and wavelength.
00:16
So the equation that we want here, since we are trying to calculate wavelength, and we are given the energy, is we want the one that says wavelength is equal to planks constant times the speed of light divided by the energy.
00:36
Okay, so two of these are constants, h and c are both constants, the energy we are given in the problem.
00:42
So we can calculate the wavelength by plugging in all of the appropriate values.
00:47
Planck's constant is 6 .626 times 10 to the negative 34 joules times seconds, whereas the speed of light is 3 .00 times 10 to the 8 meters per cent.
01:09
Second.
01:12
All right.
01:12
So those are both constants.
01:14
The energy you're given here in the problem.
01:17
We're told that it is 3 .58 times 10 to the negative 19th joules.
01:28
All right.
01:28
Let's look at units for a moment.
