Answer:

Wavelength,
\lambda=0.5\ m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The frequency f an electromagnetic wave is,
f=6* 10^8\ Hz

We need to find the wavelength of the wave.

The frequency, wavelength and speed is given by :


c=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=(c)/(f)\\\\\lambda=(3* 10^8)/(6* 10^8)\\\\\lambda=0.5\ m

So, the wavelength of the wave is 0.5 m.
