Identify the given quantities: frequency \(f = 6.0 \times 10^{14}\) Hz and speed of light \(v = 3.0 \times 10^{8}\) m/s.
Recall the relationship between the speed of a wave, its frequency, and its wavelength: \(v = f \times \lambda\), where \(\lambda\) is the wavelength.
Rearrange the formula to solve for the wavelength: \(\lambda = \frac{v}{f}\).
Substitute the known values into the equation: \(\lambda = \frac{3.0 \times 10^{8} \text{ m/s}}{6.0 \times 10^{14} \text{ Hz}}\).
Perform the division of the coefficients and subtract the exponents in the powers of ten to find the wavelength \(\lambda\).
