A radio wave signal,which transmits at a frequency of 5.77 MHz,has what wavelength? (c = 3.00 × 10⁸ m/s) A) 520 m B) 104 m C) 52.0 m D) 163 m E) 27.0 m

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The formula for the wavelength of a wave is:

wavelength = speed of light / frequency

Plugging in the values given:

wavelength = 3.00 × 10^8 m/s / 5.77 × 10^6 Hz

wavelength = 52.05 meters

Therefore, the wavelength of the radio wave signal is approximately 52.0 meters. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
