    4.835 * 10^-7 m

    Explanation:

    We are given;

    The frequency of the wave as 6.2*10^14 Hz

    We are supposed to calculate the wavelength;

    Assuming the wave has a speed equivalent to the speed of light, 2.998 * 10^8 m/s, then we can calculate the wavelength. We know that;

    Velocity, c = frequency, f * wavelength, λ

    Therefore, rearranging the formula;

    λ = c : f

    In this case;

    Wavelength, λ = 2.998 * 10^8 m/s : 6.2*10^14 Hz

    = 4.835 * 10^-7 m

    Therefore; wavelength of the wave is 4.835 * 10^-7 m
