Answer:
λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm
Explanation:
The relationship between the velocity of electromagnetic waves (UV rays) and the their frequency is:
v = fλ
where,
v = c = speed of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = speed of light
c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
f = frequency of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = 9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz
λ = wavelength of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = ?
Therefore, substituting the values in the relation, we get:
3 x 10⁸ m/s = (9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)(λ)
λ = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)
λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm
So, the radiation of 320 nm wavelength is absorbed by Ozone.
