Answer:

wavelength = 345.62 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of signal, f = 868 kHz

We need to find the wavelength of its signal.

The relation between wavelength and frequency is given by :


c=f\lambda

c is speed of light


\lambda=(c)/(f)\\\\\lambda=(3* 10^8)/(868* 10^3)\\\\\lambda=345.62\ m

So, the wavelength of its signal is 345.62 m
