Answer:


\lambda=10^(-4)\ m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,
\lambda=10^(-4)\ m

The frequency of infrared wave,
f=3* 10^(12)\ Hz

We need to find the wavelength of infrared wave. The relation between the frequency and the wavelength is given by :


c=f\lambda

where

c is the speed of light


\lambda=(c)/(f)\\\\\lambda=(3* 10^8)/(3* 10^(12))\\\\=0.0001\ m\\\\=10^(-4)\ m

So, the wavelength of the infrared wave is
10^(-4)\ m.
