The wavelength of the wave of light having the frequency of  6.44 \times {10^{13}}\,{\text{Hz}} will be \boxed{4.658 \times {{10}^{ - 6}}\,{\text{m}}} or  \boxed{4658\,{\text{nm}}}.

Further Explanation:

Given:

The frequency of the light is  6.44 \times {10^{13}}\,{\text{Hz}}.

Concept:

The light wave is an electromagnetic wave. An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave. All the electromagnetic waves having different frequencies and wavelength are considered to be moving at the speed of light.

The transverse waves are the waves in which the direction of vibration of the medium particle is perpendicular to the propagation of the wave.

The light rays are called as the electromagnetic waves because they have the electric field as well as the magnetic field oscillating perpendicular to each other and also perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.

The relation between the wavelength of the electromagnetic waves and its frequency is:

\boxed{\lambda=\frac{c}{f}}

Here, \lambda is the wavelength, c is the speed of light and f is the frequency of the light.

The speed of light is 3 \times {10^8}\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/{\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}.

Substitute the values in above expression.

\begin{aligned}\lambda&= \frac{{3 \times {{10}^8}}}{{6.44 \times {{10}^{13}}}}\,{\text{m}}\\&= 4.{\text{658}}\times {\text{1}}{{\text{0}}^{ - 6}}\,{\text{m}}\\&= 4658\,{\text{nm}}\\\end{aligned}

Thus, the wavelength of the wave of light having the frequency of 6.44\times {10^{13}}\,{\text{Hz}} will be \boxed{4.658 \times {{10}^{ - 6}}\,{\text{m}}} or \boxed{4658\,{\text{nm}}}
