Answer:

[tex]9.93\times 10^{19}Hz[/tex]

Explanation:

Speed of light is the product of its wavelength and frequency, expressed as

S=fw

Where s represent speed, f is frequency while w is wavelength

Making f the subject of the formula then

f=s/w

Substituting 2.99x10^8 m/s for s and 3.012x10^-12 m for w then

[tex]f=\frac {2.99\times 10^{8}}{3.012\times 10^{-12}}=9.926958831341\times 10^{19}\\f\approx 9.93\times 10^{19}Hz[/tex]

Therefore, the frequency equals to [tex]9.93\times 10^{19}Hz[/tex]
