Answer:
The wavelength of the wave is 2.34 nm.
Explanation:
It is required to find the wavelength of a [tex]1.28\times 10^{17}\ Hz[/tex] wave. A wave moves with a speed of light. Speed of a wave is given in terms of wavelength and frequency. So,
[tex]v=f\lambda[/tex]
[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{1.28\times 10^{17}}\\\\\lambda=2.34\times 10^{-9}\ m\\\\\text{or}\\\\\lambda=2.34\ nm[/tex]
So, the wavelength of the wave is 2.34 nm.
