About the Wavelength to Frequency Converter 🌐
The Wavelength to Frequency Converter is a tool that calculates the frequency of electromagnetic waves based on their wavelength. This is particularly useful in fields like physics, engineering, and telecommunications. The relationship between wavelength (λ) and frequency (f) is given by: \[ f = \frac{c}{\lambda} \] where:
- \( f \) = frequency in Hertz (Hz)
- \( c \) = speed of light (\( 299,792,458 \, \text{m/s} \))
- \( \lambda \) = wavelength in meters (m)
How to Use 🛠️
- Enter the wavelength value in the input field.
- Select the unit of the wavelength (meters, nanometers, or micrometers).
- Click “Convert” to calculate the frequency.
Examples 📊
| Wavelength | Unit | Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| 500 | Nanometers (nm) | 5.996 × 10¹⁴ Hz |
| 0.5 | Micrometers (µm) | 5.996 × 10¹⁴ Hz |
| 500 | Meters (m) | 5.996 × 10⁵ Hz |
Key Features ✨
- Dynamic Calculation: Instantly converts wavelength to frequency.
