    2307.7 Angstrom

    Explanation:

    frequency, f = 1.30 x 10^15 per second

    Planks's constant, h = 6.63 x 10^-34 Js

    velocity of light, c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

    Let λ be the wavelength.

    λ = c / f

    λ = (3 x 10^8) / (1.30 x 10^15) = 2.308 x 10^-7 m

    λ = 2307.7 Angstrom

    Thus, the wavelength is 2307.7 Angstrom.
