**Question 2 of 20**

What is the frequency of green light that has a wavelength of 509 nm?  
(c = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s)

**Answer Calculation:**

To find the frequency (\(f\)) of light, use the equation:

\[
f = \frac{c}{\lambda}
\]

where:
- \(c\) is the speed of light (\(3.00 \times 10^8 \, \text{m/s}\))
- \(\lambda\) is the wavelength (509 nm, which is \(509 \times 10^{-9} \, \text{m}\))

**Keypad for Calculation:**

- Digit buttons: 0-9
- Sign change (\(+/-\))
- Decimal point (\(. \))
- Clear (C)
- Multiply by 10 (\(x10^{}\))
- Delete (Backspace)

Use these buttons to input and calculate the frequency. Additional resources can be accessed as required.
