  • Yellow Light Frequency Calculation: A Detailed Explanation
    The frequency of light is given by the equation:

    $$f = \frac{c}{\lambda}$$

    where:

    * f is the frequency in hertz (Hz)

    * c is the speed of light in meters per second (m/s)

    * λ is the wavelength in meters (m)

    In this case, we have:

    * λ = 5.56 x 10^-7m

    * c = 3.00 x 10^8m/s

    So, the frequency of yellow light is:

    $$f = \frac{3.00 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}}{5.56 \times 10^{-7} \text{ m}} = \boxed{5.40 \times 10^{14} \text{ Hz}}$$
