I've been researching how to measure the speed of light with an egg. It tells me what I need to figure it out, but I don't know the math process between electromagnetic waves and the microwaves frequency. Can some body help?

Hi Jacob,
I am guessing you are doing this experiment?
https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... background

Unfortunately, I am afraid I don't understand your question. The equation,given in this background section is: "The frequency (f), wavelength (λ, and wave speed (v) are related by the equation: v = fλ. "

Please let us know if this is what you are looking for or there's something else.
Thanks and Good Luck with your experiment!
