What does one femtohertz represent?

One femtohertz corresponds to a frequency of 10^-15 hertz, which equals a cycle period of roughly 31.7 million years.

How is wavelength in terametres related to frequency in femtohertz?

Wavelength in terametres is calculated by dividing the speed of light by the frequency in femtohertz, translating extremely low frequencies into enormous spatial wavelengths.

Why use wavelength in terametres for these conversions?

Terametres allow expression of extremely long wavelengths, which are typical in astrophysical and gravitational wave studies involving interplanetary or larger distances.
