Question

If the frequency of the radio waves that are broadcast from the radio station FM 100 is 100,000,000 Hertz, what is the wavelength of those waves? Remember the speed of light is 300,000,000 meters per second. Show or explain your work.

Answer 1

λ = 3m

By using the formula,

λ =
`(V)/(f)`

where,

λ = wavelength

v = speed of light

f = frequency of radio waves

so,

λ =
`(3 x 10^8)/(1 x 10^8)`

so your ans is,

3m
