Engineer, will help you understand Math, and Physics
we can use light velocity, frequency and wavelength equation C = λf
C = 3 * 10^8 m/s is velocity of light
f = 2.50 * 10^15 Hz frequency of ultraviolet light
λ = ultraviolet light wavelength (called labmda )
so
C = λf -----> λ = C / f -----> λ = 3*10^8 / 2.50*10^15 ----> λ = 1.2 * 10^(-7) m
and we can write 120* 10^(-9) m which is 120 nm (nano meter)
