Detailed Solution

The distance separating a wave's highest peak from its adjacent highest point, or its lowest point from its adjacent lowest point, is known as the wavelength. It is represented by the letter Lambda (λ). Since wavelength is defined as length in the definition provided, the S.I. unit of wavelength should be the same as the S.I. unit of length. Since we already know that a meter is the SI unit for length, a meter is also the SI unit for wavelength.

The distance between two crests or two troughs is called as wavelength in a wave. As wavelength is measured in distance, its SI unit is meters.
