Question

100%

What would be the speed of light through a particular medium if the frequency is 6.14 x 10⁶ Hz and the wavelength is 61.53 m? Your answer for this problem will not have any decimal places.

Definition Definition Rate at which light travels, measured in a vacuum. The speed of light is a universal physical constant used in many areas of physics, most commonly denoted by the letter c . The value of the speed of light c = 299,792,458 m/s, but for most of the calculations, the value of the speed of light is approximated as c = 3 x 10 8 m/s.
