Given:

The wavelength of the wave, λ=3.25 m

The frequency of the wave, f=92.3 MHz

To find:

The velocity of the wave.

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity of a wave is given by the product of the wavelength and the frequency.

Thus, the velocity of the given wave is calculated using the formula,


v=\lambda f

On substituting the known values,


\begin{gathered} v=3.25*92.3*10^6 \\ =300* \end{gathered}
