Answer: 0.3m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Speed of radio wave(V) = 3 × 10^8 m/s

If 1M = 10^6

Frequency(F) = 90MHz = 90 × 10^6

Wavelength (λ) =?

Speed of wave (V) = frequency(F) × wavelength(λ)

V = fλ

(3 × 10^8) = (90 × 10^6) × λ

λ = (90 × 10^6) / (3 × 10^8)

λ = 30 × 10^(6 - 8)

λ = 30 × 10^-2

λ = 0.3m
