    Electromagnetic radiation are represented in waves. Each type of wave has a certain shape and length. The distance between two peaks in a wave is called the wavelength. It is indirectly related to the frequency which is the number of wave that pass per unit of time. Wavelength is equal to the speed of light divided by the frequency. We calculate as follows:

    Wavelength = 300,000,000 m/sec / 650,000,000,000,000 per second

    Wavelength = 4.62x10^-4 m
