Electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light
(29,979,245,800 centimeters per second) and their frequency and wavelength can
be determined by the formulas:
1) f = c/w
2) w = c/f
where 'c' is the speed of light, 'f' is frequency and 'w'
is wavelength.
Also, the photon energy can be calculated by the formulas:
1) e = h · f 2) e = (c ·
h)/wwhere 'e' is energy and 'h' is Planck's constant (4.13566 x
10-15 electron volts/second).
Remember, when using this calculator that input and output will always be in
Hertz (1 cycle per second), centimeters and electron volts.
