Answer:

The wavelength of the EM wave is 7.5 * 10⁻⁴ m

Explanation:

The velocity of a wave is related to its wavelength by the following formula;

velocity = wavelength * frequency

For an electromagnetic (EM) wave, its velocity is equal to the velocity of light, c = 3.0 * 10⁸ m/s

Given that the frequency and veloity of the given EM wave in the question is known, its wavelength is calculated as follows:

wavelength = velocity/frequency

where velocity of the EM wave = 3.0 * 10⁸ m/s;

frequency = 4THz = 4 * 10¹² Hz

wavelength = 3.0 * 10⁸m/s / 4 * 10¹² Hz

wavelength = 7.5 * 10⁻⁴ m

Therefore, the wavelength of the EM wave is 7.5 * 10⁻⁴ m
