You can demonstrate your understanding of the light equations.

 

Content Standards being covered:

The currently accepted best model of the atom is based on the quantum mechanical model. (EK 1.C.2)

The interaction of electromagnetic waves or light with matter is a powerful means to probe the structure of atoms and molecules and to measure their concentration. (EK 1.D.3)

The electronic structure of the atom can be described using an electron configuration that reflects the concept of electrons in quantized energy levels or shells, the energetics of the electron in the atom can be understood by consideration of Coulomb's law (EK 1.B.2)
