Like the optical part of the spectrum, radio waves can be described in terms of photons, although they are very difficult to detect. Consider the photons in radio waves from an FM station that has a 88.3-MHz broadcast frequency. Energy in joules of a photon in radio waves is E = 5.85 10 26
Find the energy, in electron volts, of a photon in the radio waves.

Energy of photon in Joule is
E = 5.85 × 10 26   J
In electron volts unit
E = 5.85 × 10 26 1.6 × 10 19 e V E = 3.656 × 10 7 e V
