The energy of a wave : 8.835.10⁻¹⁷ J

Further explanation

The energy in one photon can be formulated as

E = h. f

Where

h = Planck's constant (6.626.10⁻³⁴ Js)

f = Frequency of electromagnetic waves

f = c / λ

c = speed of light

= 3,10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength

λ = wavelength of a wave = 2.25 nm = 2.25 x 10⁻⁹m


\tt E=h.(c)/(\lambda)\\\\E=6.626.10^(-34)* (3.10^8)/(2.25.10^(-9))\\\\E=8.835* 10^(-17)~J
