An FM radio station broadcasts electromagnetic radiation at a frequency of 101.2 MHz.The wavelength of this radiation is ________ m. A) 2.964 × 10⁶ B) 2.964 C) 3.036 × 10¹⁶ D) 3.036 × 10¹⁰ E) 0.3373

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The wavelength (λ) can be calculated using the formula λ = c/f, where c is the speed of light (approximately 3.00 × 10^8 m/s) and f is the frequency. For 101.2 MHz, λ = 3.00 × 10^8 m/s / 101.2 × 10^6 Hz = 2.964 meters.
