The discussion focuses on the experimental measurement of the wavelength and frequency of light, emphasizing the relationship between these properties and the oscillation frequencies of electric and magnetic fields. It highlights the use of standard spectrometers and diffraction gratings as effective tools for measuring light wavelengths. The conversation confirms that the frequency of light corresponds directly to the frequency of its associated electric and magnetic fields, establishing a clear connection between these fundamental concepts in electromagnetism.
