Frequency represents the number of complete oscillations in one second. it is measured in Hertz (Hz). Electromagnetic waves are waves which do not require a material media for transmission. They travel with a speed of light.
The speed (m/s) of a wave is given by  frequency (Hz) × Wavelength (m)
Speed is 300,000 km/sec or 300,000,000 m/s and the wavelength is 300,000  km or 300,000,000 m.
Frequency = speed÷ wavelength
                 = 300000000 ÷ 300000000 = 1
Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 1Hz

What is the approximate wavelength of a light whose first-order bright band forms a diffraction angle of 45.0° when it passes
sp2606 [1]
** Missing info: Lines per mm = 500 **

Ans: The wavelength is =  λ = 1414.21 nm

Explanation:
The formula for diffraction grading is:

dsinθ = mλ --- (1)

Where
d = 1/lines-per-meter = (1/500)*10^-3 = 2 * 10^-6
m = order = 1
λ = wavelength
θ = 45°

Plug in the values in (1):
(1) => 2*10^-6*sin(45°) = (1)λ
=> λ = 1414.21 nm
