Okay, I just need to grasp what the equation C = Vλ means
.
Correct me if I am wrong.
c = speed of light
v = speed of frequency
λ = wavelength
So if I wanted to find the speed of the frequency of a photon with a wavelength of 450nm
So I would use
v = c/λ
v = 299,792,458/4.5 * 10^(-11)
= 6.662054622 * 10^18
Then, if I wanted to find the energy of the photon, I would just multiply that number by planks constant (6.26 * 10^-34) and I get the energy of a quantum leap from an atom and the photon's energy itself, right?
