                                         VIOLET 
                                       --------------
Wavelength ( λ ) = 400 nm
                           = 400 × 10⁻9 m

We know, 
Frequency ( F )  = C / λ
                           = (3 × 10⁸) ÷ (400 × 10⁻⁹ )
                           =  7.5 × 10¹⁴ Hz //
    
                                           Red
                                        ------------


Wavelength ( λ ) = 750 nm
                           = 750 × 10  ⁻⁹ m

We know, 
Frequency ( F )  = C / λ
                           = (3 × 10⁸) ÷ (750 × 10⁻⁹ )
                           = 4 ×  10¹⁴ Hz //


Kimmus: Hope this helps ^_^ nd if u hav any doubts in this answer, kindly ask it to me. Thank you (:
Rubia5: crystal clear
Rubia5: Thank you :D

As we know that.
speed = frequency×wavelength
⇒v =f×λ
;v = 3×10⁸ m/s
⇒f = v/λ

For violet color,
λ= 400 nm = 400×10⁻⁹ m

f = v/λ
 = ( 3×10⁸ )/(400×10⁻⁹)
 =7.5×10¹⁴ Hz

now, Red color

λ = 750 nm = 750×10⁻⁹ m
so, f =  ( 3×10⁸ )/(750×10⁻⁹)
        = 4
×10¹⁴ Hz


Rubia5: Thank you so much :D
qais: my pleasure :)
