Imma back! Yo! Whasuuuuuuup!? cool

 

Lol. Hi guys I'm back and I've got a question for you; i) A radio station produces radio waves of frequency 200,000 Hz (Hertz) and a wave length of 1,500m. What is the speed of the radio waves? (I got this ans)

 

Ans= 200,000*1,500= 3,000,000,000m/s

 

ii) Another station produces waves at 500k Hz, what is their wave length?

ALL electromagnetic waves(including radio waves) travel at the speed of light, which is about 3 X 10^8 meters per second.

Wavelength=Speed of light / Frequecy,

Wavelength=3 X10^8/500,000=600 meters

P.S. Your first answer should be 300,000,000m/s. You got wrong by 10.
