Solution

To find the wavelength of light, we can use the formula for the speed of light:

c = λν

where: c is the speed of light, which is approximately 3.00 x 10^8 m/s, λ is the wavelength, ν is the frequency.

We can rearrange the formula to solve for the wavelength:

λ = c / ν

Substituting the given values:

λ = (3.00 x 10^8 m/s) / (4.47 x 10^14 Hz)

λ = 0.671 x 10^-6 m

To convert from meters to nanometers, we multiply by 10^9:

λ = 0.671 x 10^-6 m x 10^9 nm/m = 671 nm

So, the wavelength of the light is approximately 671 nm, which corresponds to option C.
