Dual Nature of Light

Front

What is the dual nature of light?

Back

Light exhibits both wave-like and particle-like properties.

Front

How does the energy of light relate to its wavelength?

Back

Shorter wavelengths have higher energy, while longer wavelengths have lower energy.

Front

What is the formula to calculate the energy of a photon?

Back

Energy (E) = h * f, where h is Planck's constant and f is the frequency.

Front

What is the speed of light in a vacuum?

Back

The speed of light in a vacuum is approximately 3.0 x 10^8 m/s.

Front

What is the electromagnetic spectrum?

Back

The full range of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation.

Front

What is the relationship between wavelength (λ), frequency (f), and the speed of light (c)?

Back

The relationship is given by the formula λ = c/f.

Front

How do you convert nanometers to meters?

Back

To convert nanometers to meters, multiply by 10^-9.

Front

What is the energy of a photon with a wavelength of 1.06 x 10^3 nm?

Back

The energy of the photon is 1.87 x 10^-19 J.

Front

Calculate the wavelength of light with a frequency of 5.2 x 10^12 Hz.

Back

The wavelength is 5.8 x 10^-5 m.

Front

What is Planck's constant?

Back

Planck's constant (h) is approximately 6.626 x 10^-34 J·s.
