v (speed) = f (frequency) ­* y (meant to be lambda) (wavelength)
y = v/f (v is speed of light --3.0*10^8m/s)
y = 3.0*10^8/1.5*10^13
The answer is y = 2.0*10-5.

Answer : The frequency of the light is,
2.0* 10^(-5)m

Explanation : Given,

Frequency of the light =
1.50* 10^(13)Hz

Formula used :


\\u=(c)/(\lambda)

where,


\\u = frequency of light =
1.50* 10^(13)Hz=1.50* 10^(13)s^(-1)


\lambda = wavelength of light = ?

c = speed of light =
3* 10^8m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the wavelength of the light.


1.50* 10^(13)s^(-1)=(3* 10^8m/s)/(\lambda)


\lambda=2.0* 10^(-5)m

Therefore, the frequency of the light is,
2.0* 10^(-5)m
