assuming that the electrons travel very close to C (the speed of light, i.e. 299 792 458 m / s) then simply using:Wavelength = Velocity / frequency
it is given:
Wavelength @50Hz= (299 792 458 (m*sec-1))/(50 (sec-1))=599584917 m = ~6000km
(remember that once the distance gets to factors of 25%, 50%, 100%, 125% ... of the wavelength, funny stuff happens to your transmission line due to the equivalent impedance at the receiving point!)
There is no inherent disadvantage of 50 Hz compared with 60 Hz, bearing in mind that systems that run at 50 Hz are designed to run at 50 Hz.
No, these are two different distribution systems. The North American system uses 60 Hz and the European system uses 50 Hz.
10 Hz 10 Hz
Supplies are nearly always 50 Hz or 60 Hz. India's choice of 50 Hz probably goes back to the days when India took its technology infrastucture from the UK, so they probably imported the choice of 50 Hz at that time.
60 Hz in North America, 50 Hz in Europe.
The frequency that electricity is generated at in the UK is 50 Hertz.

No. Lots of countries use 50 hertz for their national electricity services.
50 hertz.
230 volts at 50 Hz
A Frequency of 50 Hertz has a Wavelength of 5.9958e+8 Centimeters 1.9671e+7 Feet 5.9958e+6 Meters
Hz is a frequency UK Electricity goes through 50 cycles per second = 50 hz , Watts is the power so there is no conversion as they are different things
"50 Hz" is the shortened form of "50 hertz" which means "50 cycles per second". 50 Hz is the frequency of alternating current (ac) used by national electricity power services in many countries in Europe and elsewhere in the world whilst in USA, Canada and many other countries it is 60 Hz.
The wavelength is (the speed of the wave) / (350) .
Wavelength = speed/frequency = 2/15 Hz = roughly 0.133... Hz.
