Question

AM radio signals have frequencies between 550 kHz and 1600 kHz (kilohertz) and travel with a speed of 3.0 $\times$ 10$^8$ m$/$s. What are the wavelengths of these signals? On FM the frequencies range from 88 MHz to 108 MHz (megahertz) and travel at the same speed. What are their wavelengths?

Step 1

The relationship between the speed of a wave (v), its frequency (f), and its wavelength (λ) is given by the equation: v = f × λ. This means that the speed of the wave is equal to the product of its frequency and wavelength. We can rearrange this equation to solve Show more…
