What is the relationship between wavelength and frequency of light?

Question

aaronq · Answer

if you multiply the wavelength, $\lambda$, and the frequency, $\nu$, of the same wave, you get the speed of light, c.      $\lambda*\nu=c$

anonymous · Answer

The wavelength and frequency of light are closely related. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength. That number, also known as the frequency, will be larger for a short-wavelength wave than for a long-wavelength wave. 

The equation that relates wavelength and frequency for electromagnetic waves is: λν=c where λ is the wavelength, ν is the frequency and c is the speed of light.
