    1) Speed of light (c) visible, X-rays

    2) λ = 0.221 nm X-rays

    3) λ = 673 nm Visible

    4). f = 2.39 10¹⁸ Hz X-rays

    5). f = 4.85 10¹⁴ Hz Visible

    Explanation:

    Electromagnetic radiation has several characteristics

    The speed of the wave regardless of its wavelength or frequency is

    c = 3 10⁸ m / s²

    There is a relationship with speed

    c = λ f

    The speed c is for all waves (x-rays, visible)

    Visible light has a wavelength between 400 nm to 700 nm,

    X-ray light corresponds to wavelengths less than 10 nm

    Light gamma rays for wavelength less than 0.1 nm

    Let's look for the frequencies for the two ranges

    Visible

    f = c / λ

    f = 3 10⁸/400 10⁻⁹ = 7.5 10¹⁴ Hz

    f = 3 10⁸ ( / 700 10⁻⁹ = 4.29 10¹⁴ Hz

    Visible range of the order of 10¹⁴ Hz

    X-rays

    f = 3 10⁸/10 10⁻⁹ = 3 10¹⁶ Hz

    f = 3 10⁸ / 0.1 10⁻⁹ = 3 10¹⁸ Hz

    X-ray higher frequency 10¹⁶ Hz

    1) Speed of light (c) visible, X-rays

    2) λ = 0.221 nm X-rays

    3) λ = 673 nm Visible

    4). f = 2.39 10¹⁸ Hz X-rays

    5). f = 4.85 10¹⁴ Hz Visible
