White light contains all the frequencies of the visible spectrum and beyond on either side - that is infrared and ultraviolet.

You already answered you own question. White light is a mixture of all the other colors of the spectrum. So it's wavelength is all of them. It has no one, particular wavelength.

Thats the problem, white light is composed of photons having various wavelengths and not a single wavelength.

The white and the yellow light would give the same clarity. In both cases the yellow section would reflect yellow and the black text would not reflect anything.

The white standard for colour TV in the UK is Illuminant D 6500 i.e. 6500nM.
