To determine the frequency associated with a given wavelength, you can use the equation:

c = λν

Where: c is the speed of light in a vacuum (approximately 3.00 × 10^8 m/s), λ (lambda) is the wavelength, and ν (nu) is the frequency.

Rearranging the equation to solve for frequency, we have:

ν = c / λ

Plugging in the values given:

λ = 4.57 × 10^(-7) m

ν = (3.00 × 10^8 m/s) / (4.57 × 10^(-7) m)

Calculating the frequency:

ν ≈ 6.56 × 10^14 Hz

Therefore, the frequency associated with the given wavelength is approximately 6.56 × 10^14 Hz.
