Wavelength size around a circle

The Wavelength size around a circle equation is used to calculate the size of a wavelengths that could wrap around the circumference of some circular shape given a circumference and the desired number of wavelengths, where:

• `C` = circumference
• `ℓ` = number of wavelengths

Wavelength(`lambda`): The equations returns the wavelength in meters. However, this can be automatically converted to other wavelength measurements via the pull-down menu.
