Question

The period of a carrier wave is T=0.005 seconds. Determine the frequency and wavelength of the carrier wave.

Answer 1

f = 200[Hz]; L=1500[km]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that frequency is the reciprocal of the period, therefore.

`f=(1)/(T) \\f=1/0.005\\f=200[Hz]`

And the wavelength is determined using the following equation.

`L=(c)/(f) \\where:\\c = light speed = 3*10^(8)[m/s]\\ f = frecuency [Hz]\\L = wavelength [m]\\L= 3*10^(8)/ 200\\ L = 1500000[m] = 1500[km]`
