Question

The name of the symbol ν is ____ and it is used for _____.

  1. Lambda, wavelength
  2. Nu, frequency
  3. Lambda, frequency
  4. Nu, wavelength

hintHint:

The name of the symbol ν is Nu and it is used for frequency

The correct answer is: Nu, frequency


    • The frequency is represented by the Greek letter υ, pronounced as nu.
    • The Wavelength is represented by the Greek letter λ, pronounced as lambda.
    • So, the correct option is b.
