Answer:
7.86×10⁻⁷ m
Explanation:
Using,
v = λf……………… Equation 1
Where v = velocity of electromagnetic wave, λ = wave length, f = frequency.
make λ the subject of the equation
λ = v/f…………… Equation 2
Note: All electromagnetic wave have the same speed which is 3×10⁸ m/s.
Given: f = 3.818×10¹⁴ Hz
Constant: v = 3×10⁸ m/s
Substitute these values into equation 2
λ = 3×10⁸/3.818×10¹⁴
λ = 7.86×10⁻⁷ m
Hence the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation is 7.86×10⁻⁷ m
