No, the speed of light is the speed at which a photon (the particles that make light) travels. While frequency is the number of times per a unit of time a wave cycles from peak to peak. Different frequencies produce different colours.

∙ 6y agoThe speed of light IN A VACUUM is always the same. In substances other than the vacuum, the speed of light is usually slower than in a vacuum.
The frequency of a light ray does not change when it undergoes refraction. The wavelength and speed of light can change, but the frequency remains constant. This is because frequency is a characteristic of the light source, not of the medium through which light is traveling.
Radio waves and light are the same exact physical phenomenon, and differ only in their wavelength (frequency). Their speeds are identical.
The formula relating the speed of light (c), frequency (f), and wavelength (λ) is: c = fλ. This formula shows that the speed of light is equal to the frequency multiplied by the wavelength.
Light with a lower frequency will have a longer wavelength. Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other (i.e. as one increases, the other decreases and vice-a-versa). The product of frequency and wavelength is the speed of light.
wavelength frequency energy are different. speed should be the same.
In a vacuum the speed of red and blue light are the same as all light, 300,000,000m/s. Their frequency and wavelength will be different but the speed remains the same.
speed of light is always the same, regardless of frequency/colour.
Its speed changes but its frequency remains the same.
The speed of light IN A VACUUM is always the same. In substances other than the vacuum, the speed of light is usually slower than in a vacuum.
Radio waves and light are the same exact physical phenomenon, and differ only in their wavelength (frequency). Their speeds are identical.
Wavelength times frequency is the speed. To know the wavelength, you have to divide the speed by the frequency of the light.
they have the same velocity but have different wavelength and frequency
The speed of a wave doesn't depend on its frequency.REASON:According to the formulaV=frequency * Lambdaso,V/ Lambda= frequencyHere,Frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength. so, If we increase the value of frequency then by same amount frequency will decrease and will cancel out the effect of each other the "V" will remain constant.
Light with a lower frequency will have a longer wavelength. Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other (i.e. as one increases, the other decreases and vice-a-versa). The product of frequency and wavelength is the speed of light.
'Radio' waves are physically and electrically identical to light waves except for their frequency (wavelength), and they travel at the same speed as light does.
Electromagnetic waves have an associated frequency and wavelength. They are related by c = λν, where c is the speed of light, λ is the wavelength, and ν is the frequency. All electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light. A change in frequency results in a change in wavelength (as required by the given equation). In short, yes. They're the same.
