Answer:

0.714 m

Explanation:

From the question,

v = λf......................... Equation 1

Where v = velocity of visible light, f = frequency of visible light, λ = wave length of visible light.

make λ the subject of the equation

λ = v/f.................. Equation 2

Given: f = 4.2×10⁸ Hz

Note: Light is an electromagnetic wave, and all electromagnetic waves travels with the same speed (3×10⁸ m/s)

Constant: v = 3×10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

λ = 3×10⁸/4.2×10⁸

λ = 0.714 m
