The accurate statements about the frequency of an electromagnetic wave are:
1. **The frequency of an electromagnetic wave is the number of wavelengths that pass a point in one second.**
2. **The frequency of an electromagnetic wave is the same as the frequency of the vibrations of the charge that produces the wave.**
3. **Frequency is measured in hertz.**
The statement **"Frequency is measured in meters per second or kilometers per minute"** is inaccurate. Frequency is specifically measured in hertz (Hz), which is defined as one cycle per second. Meters per second and kilometers per minute are units of speed or velocity, not frequency.
