To calculate the frequency of light, you can use the equation:

frequency = speed of light / wavelength

The speed of light is approximately 299,792,458 meters per second.

First, convert the wavelength from nanometers (nm) to meters (m):

250 nm = 250 × 10^(-9) m

Now, substitute the values into the formula:

frequency = (299,792,458 m/s) / (250 × 10^(-9) m)

Calculating the frequency:

frequency ≈ 1.199 × 10^(15) Hz

Therefore, the frequency of light with a wavelength of 250 nm is approximately 1.199 × 10^(15) Hz.
