Answer: 0.03 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

The frequency
f of a light with a wavelength
\lambda=1(10)^(10) m is calculated by the following equation:


f=(c)/(\lambda)

Where
c=3(10)^(8)m/s is the speed of light

Then:


f=(3(10)^(8)m/s)/(1(10)^(10) m)


f=0.03 s^(-1)=0.03 Hz This is the frequency
