    The frequency of a wave of light is\[12\times {{10}^{14}}{{s}^{-1}}\]. The wave number associated with this light is.

    A) \[5\times {{10}^{-7}}m\]                              

    B) \[4\times {{10}^{-8}}c{{m}^{-1}}\]

    C) \[2\times {{10}^{-7}}{{m}^{-1}}\]                             

    D) \[4\times {{10}^{4}}c{{m}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Here: Frequency\[(v)=12\times {{10}^{14}}{{s}^{-1}}\]and velocity of light\[(c)=3\times {{10}^{10}}cm\,\,{{s}^{-1}}\] We know that the wave number\[(\bar{v})=\frac{v}{c}=\frac{12\times {{10}^{14}}}{3\times {{10}^{10}}}=4\times {{10}^{4}}\,\,c{{m}^{-1}}\]
