Which instrument is used to measure frequency of electromagnetic waves?
A
Ohmmeter
B
Ondometer
C
Pyrometer
D
Nephetometer
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -wavemeter, device for determining the distance between successive wavefronts of equal phase along an electromagnetic wave. The determination is often made indirectly, by measuring the frequency of the wave.

Detailed explanation-2: -A device designed to detect, measure, and analyze the spectral content of the incident electromagnetic radiation is called a spectrometer. Conventional, imaging spectrometers use gratings or prisms to disperse the radiation for spectral discrimination.
