Symbolized by the Greek letter lambda and equal to velocity divided by frequency, the colors of visible light correspond to values between 400 and 700 nanometers.
According to the Rayleigh-Jeans (RAY-lee JEENS) law, spectral radiance varies inversely with the fourth power of this quantity. Radio telescopes must compensate for scintillation at high values of this quantity, and Planck's constant divided by momentum yields one of these quantities named for de Broglie [d' BROY]. In the double-slit experiment, differences of integer multiples of this quantity produced constructive interference. Symbolized by the Greek letter lambda and equal to velocity divided by frequency, the colors of visible light correspond to values between 400 and 700 nanometers. Name this quantity often measured as the distance between two consecutive crests.
