Question

Calculate the wavelength of 100-MHz microwaves in muscle and in fat.

Answer 1

Wavelength of microwaves is 3 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we need to find the wavelength of 100 MHz microwaves in muscle and in fat.

Frequency of the microwaves,
`\\u=100\ MHz=100* 10^6\ Hz=10^8\ Hz`

The relation between the frequency and the wavelength is given by :

`c=\\u* \lambda`

`\lambda=(c)/(\\u)`

Where

c is the sped of light

`\lambda=(3* 10^8\ m/s)/(10^8\ Hz)`

`\lambda=3\ m`

So, the wavelength of microwaves is 3 m. Hence, this is the required solution.
