A radio station transmits waves at a frequency of 120 MHz and a speed of 300 million m/s. Calculate the wavelength.

Asked by chloeer123

Answer (2)

wavelength = (speed)/(frequency) = 300,000,000/120,000,000 = 2.5 meters

The wavelength of the radio waves transmitted by a station with a frequency of 120 MHz and a speed of 300 million m/s is 2.5 meters. This is calculated using the formula λ = f c ​ . Hence, the wavelength signifies the distance between successive peaks in the radio wave.
