Q. Determine the wavelength of light wave?

Ans. The frequency of an infrared wave is 2.07 x 1014Hz. What is the wavelength? 

c = λv

Since we know the speed of light we can just solve for wavelength.

Notice how the units cancel leaving us with units of m, for wavelength.

Notice that wavelength is a very small number because the frequency was so big.
