The following are given in the problem:
c = 300 000 k m s
= 3 × 10 8 m s
f = 100 × 10 6 H z
The problem requires us to determine the wavelength, this can be determined by incorporating the formulas below;
λ = c f ...(1)
Now solving for the wave;ength, we can substitute the determined values to Equation I given above which gives us;
λ = c f
= 3 × 10 8 100 × 10 6
=3m
Result:
λ = 3 m
