Question

5. What is the wavelength of a radio station emitting its signal at 95.5 MHz? Estimate your

answer to the nearest power of ten.

Answer 1

`\lambda=314* 10^(-2)\ m`

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Frequency, f = 95.5 MHz

We need to find the wavelength of a radio station emitting its signal.

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

`c=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=(c)/(f)\\\\\lambda=(3* 10^8)/(95.5* 10^6)\\\\=3.14\ m`

or

`\lambda=314* 10^(-2)\ m`

So, the wavelength of a radio station is
`314* 10^(-2)\ m`.
