Answer:

E = 2.85×10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength of light = 700 nm

Frequency of light = 4.3×10¹⁴ s⁻¹

What is the energy of light = ?

Solution:

Formula:

E = h × f

h = plancks constant = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js

by putting values,

E =  6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js × 4.3×10¹⁴ s⁻¹

E = 28.5×10⁻²⁰ J

E = 2.85×10⁻¹⁹ J
