Frequency is in cycles per unit time
Wavelength is in length per cycle
To convert between the two you need the speed of the wave - which for light is the speed of light - which is given in length per unit time
Frequency = Speed of light/Wavelength
For a wavelength of 469 nanometers
Frequency is 639 Terahertz (THz) or 639,000 Gigahertz (GHz) ... rounded to 3 significant digits since the wavelength is only given to 3 significant digits
Red, Blue and Green light occupy a very narrow, but unbroken, part of the full range of electromagnetic radiation curve
Wavelength is speed, of light, in this case, divided by frequency. 3 x 108 meters per second divided by 6.82 x 1014 Hertz is 0.4 micrometers.
Yes. Blue light has a lower wavelength than yellow light, which is why it is perceived by out eyes as a different color. Blue light's wavelength is around 450 nanometers and yellow light's wavelength is around 575 nanometers. since the speed of light is constant for all light, and frequency is the speed of light over the wavelength of the light, the larger the wavelength, the lower the frequency. And the lower the frequency, the lower the energy. So the shorter wavelength of light (in this case, blue colored light) has a faster frequency, and therefore more energy.
Red light waves are almost double the length of blue or violet light waves. Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency; red light has a higher frequency than blue light.
Blue light has a higher frequency compared to yellow light.

blueee!!
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.
Red light waves are almost double the length of blue or violet light waves. Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency; red light has a higher frequency than blue light.
The frequency of Ultra violet is about twice as high as infrared light. 400 nanometers to 800 nanometers. The quantum side says they are packets of energy and blue packs a bigger wallop than red.
Blue light has a higher frequency compared to yellow light.

The light spectrum with a wavelength of 450 to 420 nanometers falls within the blue-violet region. Colors in this range appear as varying shades of blue and violet.
Red light has a longer wavelength than blue light. In the visible light spectrum, red light has wavelengths between approximately 620-750 nanometers, while blue light has wavelengths between approximately 450-495 nanometers.
