Answer:

[tex]4.74\cdot 10^{14}Hz[/tex]

Explanation:

The frequency of an electromagnetic wave is given by

[tex]f=\frac{c}{\lambda}[/tex]

where

[tex]c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s[/tex] is the speed of light

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength

For the light wave in this problem, the wavelength is

[tex]\lambda=6.33\cdot 10^{-7}m[/tex]

So by using the equation above, we find its frequency:

[tex]f=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{6.33\cdot 10^{-7} m}=4.74\cdot 10^{14}Hz[/tex]
