Answer :

Answer:

[tex]\lambda=0.06\ m[/tex]

Explanation:

Given:

  • frequency of the broadcast, [tex]f=5000\ MHz=5\times 10^9\ Hz[/tex]
  • we have the speed of the radiation equal to the speed of light, [tex]c=3\times 10^8\ m.s^{-1}[/tex]

The broadcast waves are the electromagnetic waves but it can travel only upto a hundred kilometers without any loss of information carried by it.

The relation between the frequency and the wavelength:

[tex]\lambda=\frac{c}{f}[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=\frac{3\times 10^8}{5\times 10^9}[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=0.06\ m[/tex]

Answer:

The wavelength of this radiation is 0.06 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency = 5000 MHz

We know that,

Speed of light [tex]c= 3\times10^{8}\ m/s[/tex]

We need to calculate the wavelength of this radiation

Using formula of wavelength

[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{c}{\nu}[/tex]

Where, [tex]\lambda[/tex] = wavelength

[tex]\nu[/tex] = frequency

c = speed of light

Put the value into the formula

[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{5\times10^{9}}[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=0.06\ m[/tex]

Hence, The wavelength of this radiation is 0.06 m.
