From the expression,

λ=c/v

we get,

v=c/λ

Where, ν = frequency of yellow light

c = velocity of light in vacuum = 3 × 108m/s 
λ = wavelength of yellow light = 580 nm = 580 × 10–9 m 
Substituting the values in expression (i):

v=3*108/580*10-9=5.17*1014 s-1

Thus, frequency of yellow light emitted from the sodium lamp = 5.17 × 1014 s–1 
Wave number of yellow light v=1/λ

1/580*10-9=1.72*106 m-1
