Question

The frequency of a microwave is 6Ghz. Calculate the wavelength of the wave in the air.

Answer 1

`\lambda=0.05\ m`

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The frequency of a microwave is 6Ghz.

We know that,
`1\ GHz=10^9\ Hz`

We need to find the wavelength of the wave in the air.

The relation between wavelength, frequency and speed is given by :

`c=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=(c)/(f)\\\\\lambda=(3* 10^8)/(6* 10^9)\\\\\lambda=0.05\ m`

So, the wavelength of the wave in the air is 0.05 m.
