Is there a formula to convert Hertz frequency of sound to Nanometers of light?

All light has a velocity of "c."  c is ~ 3*10^8m/s.  With this knowledge you can say that frequency is the inverse of time/distance.  Thus, you can use the formula C(meters/sec) / Freq.(cycles/sec) = Wavelength(meter/cycle) to solve the question.\n\nDo your own work from there.

Wave length and frequency are inversions.\n\nThe average speed of sound is 343 meters per second.\n\nA 1 meter wavelength then would be a frequency of 1/343 hertz.\n\nA tube will produce most easily a wavelength equal to it's length.  It can also produce a wave length of twice it's length.\n\nAll other tones will be some division of these lengths.\n\nA 12 meter tube would produce wave lengths of 24m (twice the tube) 12m (equal), 6m (half), 4m (a third), 3m (a quarter), 2m (a sixth) etc.  They will all will be completely divisible into the tube.\n\nThat makes frequencies of 12/343 Hz, etc.

1) 10 full wave-length passed by 120 sec so the wave period is 12 sec. f=1/T so f=0.083333 Hz\n2) First of all, light speed=3 x 10^8 m/s.\nSecondly, f=v/lambda\n(where v=light speed and lambda=wave-length)\nso f=3X10^8 / 6.6 x10^(-7)=4.5454 x 10^14 Hz (approx. 4500 GHz = Giga Hertz)

Frequency = velocity of propagation / wavelength.\n\nFor light, we assume it is moving in a vacuum, so vp is 3e8 m/s.  The wavelength of 310nm is 310e-9 meters.  Then we plug the numbers in, and we get (3e8 m/s) / (310e-9 m) = 967.742e12 Hz because 1/s is the same as cycles/sec, which is a Hertz.

None, sound is a wave not a particle. Sound is just a wave of vibrations travelling through atoms.

The hertz (symbol: Hz) is the SI unit of frequency. In English, hertz is used as both singular and plural.

The answer depends upon what sort of wave you are talking about and the medium it is travelling. Say for example if it is a light wave through vacuum, then \n\nWavelength = (2.99875 X 10^8) / Frequency.\n\nIf the same is sound through air at 60% humidity and at sea level, then\n\nWavelength = (340) / Frequency.\n\nIf it is a sound wave through water (4 degrees celsius), then\n\nWavelength = (1440) / Frequency.\n\nThe value inside the bracket is the speed of the wave in the respective medium under respective conditions.

You mean a 'frequency of 5.10^12Hz'\n\nCan you work it out yourself?:\n\nRemember that the speed (v) of the wave is 3×10^8 m/s,\nand that the wavelength is given by v/f\n\n[Edit: Darn, Kirchwey - don't do Glow's homework for her! ;-) ]

You can use the equation c = fλ.\nNow f = c/λ = 3 x 10*8/600 x 10-9 = 5 x 10*14 Hz

The frequency range is generally accepted to be 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. With the speed of sound = 334 m/s, 20 Hz has a wavelength of 16.7 m, 20,000 Hz a wavelength of 16.7 mm. (Ubergeek, the answerer in your link slipped a decimal place.)

We can use the formula c=v(lambda) where c=speed of light (=3.0x10^8 m/s), v is the frequency, and lambda is the wavelength\n\nSo we get:\n3x10^8 m/s = (3.22x10^16 s^-1)(lambda)\nlamda = 9.32x10^-9 m\nLambda = 932 nm

The frequency in the number of times the wave vibrates in one second. \nIn your question, you probably have light.  The speed of light is 300,000km/s.  If you multiply the frequency and the wavelength, you get the speed.  That is v=lf\nThat 595nm is actually 595x10e-9m or 0,000000595m\nThe speed of light is 3x10e8m/s\nSo the frequency is\nf=v/l\nf=300000000/0.000000595\nf=504201680672268.91\nf=5.1e14 hertz

WL = c / frequency, where c is the speed of light.\n\nWL = 3 x 10^8  (m/s) / 6 x 10^14 (1/s) = 5 x 10^(-7) m = 500 nm\n\nThe result is compatible with green light (577 - 492 nm).
