What is the wavelength (in meters) of radio waves that have a frequency of 89.9 MHz? (wavelength × frequency = speed of light; speed of light = 3.0 × 10⁸ meters/sec.)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The wavelength can be calculated using the formula: wavelength = speed of light / frequency. Given the speed of light as 3.0 × 10^8 meters/sec and the frequency as 89.9 MHz (which is 89.9 × 10^6 Hz), the wavelength = (3.0 × 10^8) / (89.9 × 10^6) = 3.34 meters, which rounds to 3.3 meters.
