The energy of a photon is proportional to its frequency, as stated by the Planck - Einstein's equation

E

=

h

⋅

ν

, where

E

- the energy of the photon

h

- Planck's constant, equal to

6.626

J s

ν

- the frequency of the photon

Now, notice that you are given the wavelength of the photon,

λ

. As you know, frequency and wavelength have an inverse relationship described by the equation

λ

⋅

ν

=

c

, where

c

- the speed of light in vacuum, approximately equal to

This means that the relationship between energy and wavelength looks like this

⇒

Another important thing to notice here is that the wavelength of the photon is given in nanometers,

nm

. You need to convert this to meters, the unit used for the value of the speed of light.
