Question
Hello I was wondering if you could please create an answer key with no work since the paper is asking us for both however I’d just like the answer key to see as a reference that my answers will be correct thank you so much sorry for the bother :)
**Wavelength, Frequency, and Energy Worksheet**

**Directions:** Complete this worksheet on a separate piece of paper. Show all equations, work, units, and 3 significant figures for full credit. Below are equations and conversions that you may find useful.

\[C = \lambda \nu \]
\[E = h \nu = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\]
\[C = 3.00 \times 10^8 \, \text{m/s} \]
\[h = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{J} \cdot \text{s} \]
\[1 \, \text{nm} = 10^{-9} \, \text{m} \]

1. **An AM station broadcasts rock music at “950 on your radio dial.” Units for AM frequencies are given in kilohertz (kHz). Find the wavelength of the station’s radio waves in meters (m) and nanometers (nm).**

2. **An FM station broadcasts music at 93.5 MHz (Megahertz or \(10^6\) Hz). Find the wavelength in m and nm of these waves.**

3. **A radio wave has a frequency of \(3.8 \times 10^{10}\) Hz. What is the energy (in J) of one photon of this radiation?**

4. **An X-ray has a wavelength of \(1.3 \times 10^{-10}\) m. Calculate the energy (in J) of one photon of this radiation.**

5. **Rank the following photons in terms of increasing energy: blue (\(\lambda = 453\) nm), red (\(\lambda = 660\) nm), and yellow (\(\lambda = 595\) nm).**

6. **Rank the following photons in terms of decreasing energy: IR (\(\nu = 6.5 \times 10^{13}\) Hz), microwave (\(\nu = 9.8 \times 10^{11}\) Hz), and UV (\(\nu = 8.0 \times 10^{15}\) Hz).**

7. **What is the wavelength of a wave having a frequency of \(3.76 \times 10^{14}\) Hz?**

8. **What is the frequency of a \(6.9 \times 10^{-13}\) m wave?**
