Find the ratio of frequency of violet light `(lambda_(1) = 4.10 xx %^(-5) cm)` to that of red light `(lambda_(2) = 6.56 xx 10^(-5) cm)` Also determine the ratio of energies carried by them |

Answer» Using `c= v lambda` where c is speed of light v is frequency `lambda` is wavelength `(v_(1))/(v_(2)) = lambda_(2)/(lambda_(1)) [1 : "violet and 2 : red"]` `rArr (v_(1))/(v_(2)) = (6.56 xx 10^(-5))/(4.10 xx 10^(-5)) = 1.6: 1` Now the energy assciated with electromagnitic radiation is given by `E = hv` .THerefore `(E_(1))/(E_(2)) = (v_(1))/(v_(2)) = (lambda_(1))/(lambda_(2)) = 1.6 : 1` Hence the ratio of energies is same as that of frequencies. |
