Answer:

frequency = 0.47×10⁴ Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength of wave = 6.4× 10⁴ m

Frequency of wave = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Speed of wave = wavelength × frequency

Speed of wave = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Now we will put the values in formula.

3 × 10⁸ m/s = 6.4× 10⁴ m × frequency

frequency = 3 × 10⁸ m/s / 6.4× 10⁴ m

frequency = 0.47×10⁴ /s

s⁻¹ = Hz

frequency = 0.47×10⁴ Hz

Thus the wave with wavelength of 6.4× 10⁴ m have 0.47×10⁴ Hz frequency.
