Answer:

f = 7.87×10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

Given data:

Speed of light = 3×10⁸ m/s

Wavelength of light = 3.81 ×10⁻⁷ m

Frequency of light = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Speed of wave = wavelength × frequency

Now we will put the values in formula.

3×10⁸ m/s = 3.81 ×10⁻⁷ m × f

f = 3×10⁸ m/s /  3.81 ×10⁻⁷ m

f = 0.787 ×10¹⁵ s⁻¹

   s⁻¹  = Hz

f =  0.787 ×10¹⁵ Hz

f = 7.87×10¹⁴ Hz
