Given

Light tavels with a speed


v=2*10^8\text{ m/s}

Frequency is


n=4.4*10^(14)\text{ Hz}

To find

What is the wavelength of the light?

Step-by-step explanation

We know,


\begin{gathered} v=n\lambda \\ \Rightarrow2*10^8=4.4*10^(14)\lambda \\ \Rightarrow\lambda=4.5*10^(-7)m \end{gathered}

Conclusion

The wavelength is


a.\text{ }4.5*10^(-7)m
