Usually, no. The wavelength of visible light is usually measured in nanometers. Only larger forms of electromagnetic radiation, like radio waves, are measured in meters.

What units is wavelength measured in usually?

Answer - meters or derivations of meters e.g micrometers, nanometers etc


What are the metric units for wavelength frequency?

Wavelength is a length. Hence, the metric unit for it is "meter". Frequency is a reciprocal of time. Hence, the unit for it is "per second", named "Hertz".


What is the wavelength of 60 hertz?

60Hz has a wavelength of 5000 meters.


If blue light has a frequency of 6.98 10 14 hertz what is the wavelength in nanometers?

Just divide the speed of light (in meters/second) by the frequency (in hertz) - that will give you the wavelength (in meters). You can then convert that to nm.


What unit do you get when you multiply hertz by meters?

You get a speed. If the 'Hertz' is the frequency of a particular wave, and the 'meters' is the wavelength of the same wave, then their product is the speed of that wave.


What do you mean by using the word wavelength?

The word "wavelength" refers to the frequency of a wave. Wavelength is measured in hertz; the number of vibrations per second.


What is the speed of a wave if its wavelength is 0.02meters its frequencyis 400hz?

If you multiply the wavelength (in meters) and the frequency (in Hertz), you will get the speed of the wave (in meters per second).


What is the velocity of a wave with frequency of 6 hertz and a wavelength of 2 meters?

The velocity of a wave is calculated using the formula: velocity = frequency × wavelength. Therefore, the velocity of a wave with a frequency of 6 hertz and a wavelength of 2 meters is 12 m/s.


What is the speed when wavelength equals 27 meters and frequency equals 97 hertz?

Just multiply the wavelength (in meters) with the frequency (in Hertz) to get the speed (in m/s).


A wave has a wavelength of 2mm and a frequency of 3Hz At what speed does the wave travel?

the formula for wave velocity/speed is: velocity= wavelength * wave frequencyvelocity is measured in meters/second (m/s), wavelength is measured in meters(m), and wave frequency is measured in hertz(hz).your wavelength is in millimeters, so convert it to meters and you get .002 meters.now, fill[replace] in the numbers you know for the variables in the formula.velocity(m/s)= .002(m) * 3(hz) do the multiplication and you get .006 the speed is .006 meters/second(m/s)you're welcome! :)


What is the wavelength of a wave with a speed of 30 meters per second and a frequency of 10 hertz?

Wavelength = speed/frequency = 30/10 = 3 meters


What is the wavelength if the speed 331 meters per second and the hertz is 20.0?

331/20 = 16.55 meters.And by the way ... The hertz is not 20. The 'frequency' is 20 hertz.
