Solution

The energy of a photon can be calculated using the formula E = hf, where E is the energy, h is Planck's constant, and f is the frequency. We can rearrange this formula to solve for frequency: f = E/h.

Given that E = 3.3 x 10^-12 J and h = 6.6 x 10^-34 J*s, we can substitute these values into the formula:

f = (3.3 x 10^-12 J) / (6.6 x 10^-34 J*s) = 5 x 10^21 s^-1

So, the frequency of the wave is 5 x 10^21 Hz. This is not an option in the multiple choice answers provided. There may be a mistake in the question or the answer choices.
