  Standing waves and light speed

+ 0 like - 3 dislike

If light speed is equal to frequency times full wavelength where C = f λ then light speed must be twice that on half wavelengths from standing waves, assuming photons are standing packets or quanta.

Does this logic make sense ? 

Closed as per community consensus as the post is not graduate-level

This is not a graduate-level question and would therefore be a better fit on PhysicsForums.

Voting to close.
