MCQ
If wavelength of a wave is $\lambda = 6000Å.$ Then wave number will be
  • A
    $166 \times {10^3}m^{-1}$ 
  • B
    $16.6 \times {10^{ - 1}}m^{-1}$ 
  • $1.66 \times {10^6}m^{-1}$ 
  • D
    $1.66 \times {10^7}m^{-1}$ 

Answer

Correct option: C.
$1.66 \times {10^6}m^{-1}$ 
c
(c) $\bar n = \frac{1}{\lambda } = \frac{1}{{6000 \times {{10}^{ - 10}}}}$

$ = 1.66 \times {10^6}{m^{ - 1}}$
