Answer:

Wavelength, λ  = 6.7 x 10^-11 m

Explanation:

Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other.

In this problem;

f =  4.5 x 10^18 Hz

wavelength, λ = ?

Speed of light, c = 3 x 108 m/s.

These variables are related by the following equation;

c = λ * f

Making λ subject of focus, we have;

λ = c / f

λ = 3 x 10^8 / 4.5 x 10^18

λ  = 0.67 x 10^-10

λ  = 6.7 x 10^-11 m
