If you haven't already done so, you should read the information available at these two web pages:

They work through several problems for you. You may also want to check out the jing videos available at

Useful equations and constants:

c = λ ν         E = h ν

c (the speed of light) = 3.00e8 m/s   

h (Planck's constant) = 6.626e-34 Js

For answers between 0.001 and 1000, use decimal notation -- for example: 54.8 nm, 0.034 Hz, etc

For answers smaller than 0.001 or larger than 1000, use scientific notation -- for example: 3.4e7 m, 8.10e-13 J, etc
