![### Wavelength/Frequency Calculations
#### Question
**The wavelength of a particular color of green light is 528 nm.**
The frequency of this color is:
\[ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \text{ sec}^{-1} \]
*Conversion Information:*
\[1 \text{ nm} = 10^{-9} \text{ m}\]

**Note:** This is your final group attempt for **3. Wavelength/Frequency Calculations**.
---
To find the frequency (f) of the green light, you may use the equation that relates the speed of light (c), wavelength (λ), and frequency:
\[ c = \lambda \cdot f \]
Where:
- \( c \) is the speed of light in a vacuum (\( 3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s} \))
- \( \lambda \) is the wavelength
- \( f \) is the frequency
Given:
- \( \lambda = 528 \text{ nm} = 528 \times 10^{-9} \text{ m} \)
Rearrange for frequency:
\[ f = \frac{c}{\lambda} \]
