    How to Calculate the Frequency of Lightwave at 500nm Wavelength

    6 x 10^14 perhaps? How could i cock it up that much? TWICE! But I see the logic now. Thankyou.

    How to Calculate the Frequency of Lightwave at 500nm Wavelength

    err, V = fXh Divide out the f... f/V = h. So you would have to multiply out the V to get/ f = vh ?? 0.0000005m x 3000 000 00ms = ? so F=150? ?

    How to Calculate the Frequency of Lightwave at 500nm Wavelength

    This sounds like a stupid question. However my teacher didnt really explain it well. Its my first day back at school, cut me some slack thx. - Calculate the frequency of a lightwave of wavelengh 500nm. Travelling at speed of light (3x10^8 ms-1) ----------------------------------------- I...

    New to physics - throw me a bone here

    Yeah I am in NSW. Yes I am on the same boat as everyone else. However, I would just like to get ahead. I'm a global learner, and I think if I get a lot of the other physics concepts It will help me absorb more in class. I am aiming for a UAI of >90, so i am keeping my options open. But at the...

    New to physics - throw me a bone here

    Jobs on the cards: - Medical Doctor. - Musician. Yeah they are very different, But I will probably end up doing both.

    New to physics - throw me a bone here

    Oh sorry, I am in Australia and have just come from year 10 into year 11. Year 11 and Year 12 is ONE course here (hence senior physics). I have done 'science' up until now, which was mandatory (there were no elective sciences either). I am fairly good at maths, except there was a really bad...

    What is the rarity of a straight-A student?

    I hear your A levels are a bit of a breeze...

    Requirements for making it to MIT

    Darn CS&E. Heh, thx. Yeah I'd suppose that everyone trying for MIT would be v.smart and have top grades. You need to show these people something that sets you apart.

    Requirements for making it to MIT

    hehe, I love trying to figure out other countries systems. I'll venture a guess and see if i win a prize: - CSE - Chemical Structural Engineering? - CPI - Cumulative Point Index?

    New to physics - throw me a bone here

    I have just started Senior physics at high school and am relitavely new to physics. I am unsure if I wish to pursue physics as a career or not. Can someone post some starting points? Some sites to go thru step-by-step and teach physics?

    Job opportunities for an Astrophysics?

    I agree about needing to change to the metric system. Damn you backward americans. heh. j/k The metric system is much more logical, however I thought there was worldwide scientific stds of measurement?
