Wavelength Calculator

A wavelength calculator is a tool that calculates the wavelength of a wave based on its frequency and speed. In physics, wavelength is the distance between two consecutive peaks or troughs of a wave. It is usually represented by the Greek letter lambda (λ) and is measured in units of meters, centimeters, or nanometers.

The formula for calculating wavelength is:

Wavelength = Speed of light / Frequency

Where:

• Speed of light is the speed at which light travels in a vacuum, which is approximately 299,792,458 meters per second (m/s)
• Frequency is the number of cycles of the wave that occur per second and is measured in Hertz (Hz)

To use a wavelength calculator, you need to input the values of frequency and speed of light, and the calculator will calculate the wavelength for you. This can be useful in a variety of fields, such as physics, optics, and telecommunications, where understanding the properties of waves is important for designing and analyzing systems and devices.
