What does microhertz (µHz) represent?

Microhertz (µHz) is a frequency unit equal to one millionth of a hertz, used to measure extremely low frequency oscillations such as those in geophysics and astrophysics.

How is wavelength in terametres related to frequency in microhertz?

Wavelength in terametres corresponds to the spatial distance between wave crests and can be calculated from frequency in microhertz using the defined physical relation involving the speed of light.

Can this converter be used for waves other than electromagnetic waves?

No, the conversion here assumes electromagnetic wave propagation in vacuum and may not be accurate for non-electromagnetic waves or media with different wave speeds.
