Yellow light has a frequency of 5.2 * 1014 Hz and travels at a speed of 3.0 * 108 m/s. What is the wavelength of yellow light, in meters?

(A) 5.8 * 10-7 m

(B) 2.2 * 10-6 m

(C) 1.7 * 106 m

(D) 8.2 * 1022 m

Wave frequency and length are inversely related through velocity.

frequency = velocity / length

Ligth velocity is 3.0 * 10^8 m/s

Then, frequency of yellow light = (3.0 * 10^8 m/s) / wavelength

frequency of yellow light = (3.0 * 10^8 m. s^-1) / (5.2 * 10^14 hertz) = 5.8 * 10^ - 7 m

Answer: Option (A) 5.8 * 10 ^ - 7 m
