A photon interacts with a ground state electron in a hydrogen atom and is absorbed. The electron is ejected from the atom and exhibits a de Broglie wavelength of 0.468×10−10 m. Determine the frequency (in hz) of the interacting photon.

6 answers

frequency*wavelength=speed of light
not correct answer - this is a de Broglie wave ;)
First find: E = P^2/2Me + E(first ionization)

P= h / BroglieWavelength

E(first ionization)=21.7*10^-19

Me= 9.1*10^-31

h= 6.626*10^-34

Once E is found the find frequency:

frequency(hz)= E / h
5.032*10^15
1.71*10^17
It is wrong rex.
