c = λf, where c is the speed of light, 3.0 x 108m/s; λ is the wavelength; and f is the frequency in Hz or /s.
λ = c/f = (3.0 x 108m/s)/(1014Hz) = *3.0 x 105m
*Answer is rounded to correct number of significant figures.

What is the correlation between wavelengths and frequency?
Wavelength = wave speed/frequency Frequency = wave speed/wavelength (Wavelength) x (Frequency) = Wave speed
How does frequencey relate to wavelength?
Frequency = (wave speed) divided by (wavelength)Wavelength = (wave speed) divided by (frequency)Wave speed = (frequency) multiplied by (wavelength)
What does infrared wave mean?
It is an electromagnetic wave, which means it is similar to light, but invisible to the human eye. Infrared light (or infrared waves) have a longer wavelength and a smaller frequency than visible light.
What is the quantitative relationship between frequency and wavelength?
speed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelength
What has a longer wave length a infrared radiation or red light?
Infrared radiation has a lower frequency and longer wavelength than red light. Note that "infra" means "below" in this case referring to the lower frequency.
What is the difference between unltraviolet light and infrared light?
wavelength and frequency. ultravoilet light has a short wave length and therefore a high frequency, while infrared light has a longer wave length and lower frequency
What is a radio wave's relative wavelength and frequency is?
The wave length and frequency of course vary, the frequency ranges from 3kHz to 300 GHz. The wavelengths are longer than infrared.
What is the correlation between wavelengths and frequency?
Wavelength = wave speed/frequency Frequency = wave speed/wavelength (Wavelength) x (Frequency) = Wave speed

What is the quantitative relationship between frequency and wavelength?
speed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelength
How the wavelength of a sound wave changes if the frequency of the wave increases?
frequency of wave is inversely proportional to wavelength
How the wavelength of a sound wave changes if frequency of the wave increase?
frequency of wave is inversely proportional to wavelength
How is frequency related to wavelength for a given wave?
(frequency) multiplied by (wavelength) = (speed of the wave)
Which has the greatest frequency out of radio wave microwave infrared wave visible light ultraviolet light x ray gamma ray?
X-rays have the highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum.
What is the formula for finding the frequency of a wave?
The wavelength of a wave is calculated using the formula: Wavelength = speed of the wave divided by the frequency of the wave. For radio waves and other wireless signals as well as the speed a signal travels along a wire, the speed of the wave is approximately 299,792,458 meters per second (the speed of light).
How does speed of wave relate to wavelength and frequency?
The product of (wavelength x frequency) is the wave's speed.
