The wavelength of the radio waves is
9.38 * 10^{{3} m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Frequency= 3.20 x 1010 Hz

Wave speed or speed of light=
3.00*10^8

To Find:

Wavelength of radio waves= ?

Solution:

Wavelength of radio waves is mathematically expressed as


\lambda= (c)/(f)

where

f = frequency

c= wave speed or speed of light


\lambda = wavelength of radio.

So,


\lambda=(c)/(f)


\lambda= (3.00*10^8)/( 3.20 *10^(10))


\lambda=0. 938* 10^ {{-2}


\lambda= 9.38* 10^ {{-3}
