Answer:


\huge{5.77 * {10}^( - 5) m}

Step-by-step explanation:

The wavelength of a wave can be found by using the formula


\lambda = (c)/(f) \\

where

c is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

From the question we have


\lambda = \frac{3 * {10}^(8) }{5.2 * {10}^( 12) } \\ \\ \\ \\ \large{ = 5.77 * {10}^( - 5) m}

Hope this helps you
