Radio waves travel at the speed of light, 3.0 × 108 m/s. What is the wavelength of a radio wave from an AM station broadcasting at a frequency of 7.5 × 105 Hz? (λ = v/ f)

4 × 10^2 M

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Speed of light as 3.0 × 10^8 m/s

Frequency of radio wave as 7.5 × 10^5 Hz

We are required to determine the wavelength.

Using the formula;

wavelength, λ = v/f

Note; Radio wave is an electromagnetic wave, therefore travels with the speed of light.

Therefore;

wavelength, λ = 3.0 × 10^8 m/s ÷ 7.5 × 10^5 Hz

                      = 4 × 10^2 M

Hence, the wavelength of the radio wave is 4 × 10^2 M
