Answers (1)

I think question is incomplete.

If it is

A plane polarized monochromatic EM wave is traveling in vacuum along z direction such that at t=t_{1} it is found that the electric field is zero at a spatial point z_{1}. The next zero that occurs in its neighbourhood is at z_{2}. The frequency of the electromagnetic wave is :

then answer is

 Wavelength=2(z_{2}-z_{1})

\therefore frequency = \frac{c}{\lambda }=\frac{3*10^{8}}{2\left |z_{2}-z_{1} \right |}

                                         =\frac{1.5*10^{8}}{\left | z_{2}-z_{1} \right |}
