You determine the correct number of significant figure of a measurement in a graduated cylinder by looking at the smallest division on the graduated cylinder. If the division is divided up to the ones place, you can still read the half of that division or the .50 measurement. So, you can have until the tenths place in your measurement.
The equation relating velocity and wavelength is written below:
v = λf
where λ is the wavelength in m while f is frequency in 1/s.
Let's determine first the frequency from the speed of light:
c = distance/time, where c is the speed of light equal to 3×10⁸ m/s
3×10⁸ m/s = (300 mm)(1 m/1000 mm)/ time
time = 1×10⁻⁹ seconds
Since f = 1/t,
f = 1/1×10⁻⁹ seconds = 10⁹ s⁻¹
Thus,
v = (795×10⁻⁹ m)(10⁹ s⁻¹)
v = 795 m/s
