The relationship between frequency and wavelength of light is given by:

[tex]f=\frac{c}{\lambda}[/tex]

where

f is the frequency

c is the speed of the light

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength

Therefore, from this equation we see that frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength: the longer the wavelength, the smaller the frequency, and the shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency.
