Question 12 • 26-27 LISD TX-Physics B-CR (rev. 5/25)

A photon has 8.0 × 10–15 J of energy. Planck’s constant is 6.63 × 10–34 J•s.

Answer
A
1.21 × 1019 Hz
B
8.3 × 10–20 Hz
C
1.21 × 10–19 Hz
D
8.3 × 1020 Hz

Explanation

Use the photon-energy relationship E = hf, so the frequency is f = E/h. Substituting gives f = (8.0 × 10⁻¹⁵ J)/(6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J·s) ≈ 1.21 × 10¹⁹ Hz. Therefore, the correct choice is A, 1.21 × 10¹⁹ Hz.
