The video 'Science in Five' explains the relationship between frequency and wavelength of waves, focusing on electromagnetic radiation. It introduces the equation C = λF, where C is the speed of light, and demonstrates how frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional. Through examples of red, green, and purple wave patterns, the video illustrates how frequency increases as wavelength decreases. The video concludes with a call to action for viewers to engage with the channel.
