The wavelength of an electromagnetic wave that travels at 3 x 108 m/s and has a frequency of 60 MHz is 5m
The formula for calculating the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave is expressed as:
λ =v/f where
- v is the velocity
- f is the frequency
Given the following parameters
f = 60MHz = 60,000,000Hz
v = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
Substitute the given parameters into the formula as shown:
[tex]\lambda =\frac{3 \times 10^8}{6 \times 10^7} \\\lambda = \frac{3}{6} \times 10^{8-7}\\\lambda = \frac{1}{2} \times 10\\\lambda = 5m[/tex]
Hence the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave that travels at 3 x 108 m/s and has a frequency of 60 MHz is 5m.
