What is the wavelength of radio waves transmitted by a radio station with a frequency of 980 million cycles per second?

The wavelength of a radiowave depends on its frequency. You take the speed of light and divide by the frequency, and you will get wavelength. For instance, a particular radiostation broadcasts at 97.5 MHz (WALK, Long Island, NY). Take the speed of light, 2.99x108 meters per second and divide by 9.75x107 cycles per second(1), and you get 3.07 meters per cycle. (1) I used cycles per second instead of hertz so that you could see dimensionally how the seconds cancel out.


How do you convert meters per second to hertz?

Hertz are a measurement of frequency, where meters per second is a measurement of velocity (speed). The two cannot be converted. Hertz is cycles per second, like a radio wave or sound wave. An example is a radio station transmitting on 10.0 MegaHertz (MHz) This indicates the radio wave oscillates 10 Million times per second. Meters per second can be used to measure, for example, the velocity of a car or bullet. Trying to convert frequency to speed would be like trying to convert Miles per hour to liters... it doesn't work.


What are the SI units for speed of light?

Wavelength is in meters, the frequency is in hertz. period is in seconds and the wave speed is in meters per second.


How are the energy and the frequency of an electromagnetic wave related?

For any point on the electromagnetic spectrum, the product of(wavelength) multiplied by (frequency) is 299,792,458 meters per second.That's the speed of the wave.


What is thetemperature of 20c?

It depends on the frequency f. The speed of sound c is 343 meters per second at 20 degrees Celsius or 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Wavelength lambda is speed of sound c divided by frequency f.

What is the speed of a sound wave that has a wavelenght of 102 meters and a frequency of 250hz?

speed = wavelength * frequency wavelength = 102 meters frequency = 250 Hz = 250 cycles/second 102 * 250 = 25500 meters/second


How do you convert frequency from meters to megahertz?

"Meters" is not frequency. It's wavelength. If you know the wavelength in meters, divide 300 by it, and the result is the frequency in MHz. If you know the frequency in MHz, divide 300 by it, and the result is the wavelength in meters.


What is the relationship wavelength and frequency?

Frequency is the number of wavelenghts passing though a given point in one second. Wavelength is the distance between two crest or troughs. The relationship between wavelenght and frequency is given by f = 1/wavelength. where f = frequency


What is the speed of a wave that has a frequency of 250 hertz and a length of 1.3 meters?

The equation to use in this case is:speed (of the wave) = wavelength x frequency If the frequency is in hertz, and the wavelength is in meters, the speed will be in meters/second.


What is the wavelength of radio waves transmitted by a radio station with a frequency of 1760 million cycles per second?

Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) = (300 million meters/sec) / (1.760 GHz) = 17 centimetersDivide the speed of light (in meters/second) by the frequency (cycles/second). The answer will be in meters.


What is the wavelength of a wave with a speed of 30 meters per second and a frequency of 10 hertz?

Wavelength = speed/frequency = 30/10 = 3 meters


What is the speed of wave if it has a wavelength of 4 meters and a frequency of 3 hertz?

(4 meters) x (3 per second) = 12 meters per second


The frequency of a wave that travels at a speed of 900 meters per second and a wavelength of 9 meters?

Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) = 900/9 = 100 Hz.


What is the frequency of a wave with a wavelength of 5 meters and a speed of 10 meters per second?

2 Hz


How are radio wavelengths measured?

The frequency, or number of cycles per second is measured, then divide the speed of light in meters per second (299,792,458) by frequency to get wavelength in meters. Example: 7 Mhz = 7,000,000 hz 299792458 / 7000000 = 42.8 meters.


What is the speed of a wave that has a wavelength of 2 m and a frequency?

The speed is (2 times the frequency) meters per second.


If you have a frequency of 670 what is it wavelength?

Depends on what the speed of the wave is. The wavelength is equal to the speed of the wave divided by its frequency. For light in a vaccum, for instance, the speed is c, or about 3.00 x 10e8 meters/second. If the frequency was in Hertz (cycles/second), then the wavelength would be 448,000 meters. So, this probably is a light frequency. If it were the sound at sea level, the speed is 340 meters/second, so the resulting wavelength would be 0.507 meters. The sound would be nearly an "E".
