To determine the frequency of a green light with a wavelength of 5x10^5 meters, we can use the formula:

c = λν

Where: c = speed of light (approximately 3x10^8 meters per second) λ = wavelength ν = frequency

Rearranging the formula to solve for frequency (ν), we get:

ν = c / λ

Plugging in the values:

ν = (3x10^8 m/s) / (5x10^5 m)

Simplifying:

ν = 600 Hz

Therefore, the frequency of a green light with a wavelength of 5x10^5 meters is approximately 600 Hz.
