Depends on what the speed of the wave is. The wavelength is equal to the speed of the wave divided by its frequency.
For light in a vaccum, for instance, the speed is c, or about 3.00 x 10e8 meters/second. If the frequency was in Hertz (cycles/second), then the wavelength would be 448,000 meters. So, this probably is a light frequency.
If it were the sound at sea level, the speed is 340 meters/second, so the resulting wavelength would be 0.507 meters. The sound would be nearly an "E".

What is the frequency of a red laser beam with a wavelength of 670 nm?
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)Wavelength = 700 nmFor speed of light, use 3 x 108 meters/secFrequency = (3 x 108) / (0.7 10-6) = 4.286 x 1014 Hz = 4.286 x 105 GHz
Does the frequency increase when the wavelength increases?
No, the frequency decreases as the wavelength lengthens. The shorter the wavelength the higher the frequency.
What determine the color of a light wave?
Its wavelength (or frequency).
What is the equation for the relationship between frquency and wavelength?
For a single wave: Speed = (frequency) x (wavelength) Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)
How do you calculate light wavelength to frequency?
To find (wavelength): Divide (speed) by (frequency). To find (frequency): Divide (speed) by (wavelength).
The wave length is 670 nm what is the freguency of the radiation?
Use wavelength = frequency/300 000 with wavelength in metres and transpose.

Can you find volocity if you have wavelength and frequency?
Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency So, Velocity = Wavelength * Frequency
Relationship between frequency velocity and wavelength?
Wavelength = (speed) divided by (frequency) Frequency = (speed) divided by (wavelength) Speed = (frequency) times (wavelength)
Does the frequency increase when the wavelength increases?
No, the frequency decreases as the wavelength lengthens. The shorter the wavelength the higher the frequency.
How do you find the frequency of a wavelength?
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)
How are frequency speed and wavelength related?
they are related by the equation velocity=frequency*wavelength
What determine the color of a light wave?
Its wavelength (or frequency).

What is the relationship betwen wavelength and frequency?
wavelength = velocity / frequency
How do you calculate light wavelength to frequency?
To find (wavelength): Divide (speed) by (frequency). To find (frequency): Divide (speed) by (wavelength).
What is the relationship between the velocity frequency and wavelength of a wave?
The shorter the wavelength is, the higher the frequency will be and the longer the wavelength is, the lower the frequency will be.
