What does wavelength in centimetres represent?

It represents the physical distance between identical points on a wave, expressed in centimetres, often used in antenna and microwave engineering as well as acoustic system design.

When should I use wavelength in exametres?

Wavelength in exametres is best used for describing extremely large wave periods relevant to astrophysics and cosmology, such as ultra–low-frequency gravitational waves or large-scale cosmological perturbations.

How does the conversion between centimetres and exametres work?

One centimetre wavelength equals 1 × 10⁻²⁰ exametres, reflecting the huge difference in scale between the two units.
