A radio wave has a frequency of 3.20 × 108 hz. what is the energy (in j) of one photon of this radiation? enter your answer in scientific notation. × 10 j
The formula to be used in this problem is:E = hν Where: ν = frequency in Hz, or s^-1. From time to time you see E = hf. h = 6.636 x 10^-34 J.s and is named as Planck's constant.
E = (6.636 x 10^-34 J.s)(3.20 x 10^8 s^-1)= 2.12352 x 10^-25 JThis is the energy of 1 photon.
