EMR Wavelength: Frequency & Electric Fields

[namanjain]

How are the wavelength and frequency of light measured experimentally, are the equal to frequency of their consistent electric and magnetic field motion's frequency...

 

[janhaa]

For example;
standard spectrometer and diffraction grating experiment will allow you to measure the wavelength of light...
