Problem 4 : The wavelength of a wave is 0.02 meters. Calculate the frequency of the wave in hertz (Hz) if it travels at the speed of light $((3 \times 10^{8}) m / s) .$

Solution :

The speed of a wave ((v)) is related to its frequency ((f)) and wavelength ((λ)) by the formula: $[v = f λ]$ Rearrange the formula to solve for frequency: $[f = \frac{v}{λ}]$

Substituting the values: $[f = \frac{3 \times 10^{8}, m/s}{0.02, m} = 1.5 \times 10^{10}, Hz]$
