Best Answer

The formula for wavelength is simple, v(velocity)=f(frequency) x λ(wavelength)

If we fill in your info we get:

3 x 10^8 = 2.45 x 10^9 x λ

This leads to:

λ=(3 x 10^8)/(2.45 x 10^9)=0.122 meters

What is the wavelength of a microwave having a frequency of 7.74 MHz?

EM radiation with a wavelength of 15 cm has a frequency of 1.9987 GHz. (Giga Hertz) or close enough to 2GHz. Technically this is in the UHF (Ultra High Frequency) section of the radio spectrum which is 300MHz to 3GHz.


What is its wavelength in meters if The frequency of a microwave signal is 9.76 GHz?

Wavelength = (speed of light) divided by (frequency) = (3 x 108) / (9.76 x 109) = 0.03074 meter


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 wavelength of the radiation produced by a 2.70 GHz microwave?

The wavelength of the radiation produced by a 2.70 GHz microwave is approximately 11.1 centimeters.


The frequency of a light wave with wavelength 0.005 meters is Hz?

Frequency = speed/wavelength = (300,000,000)/(0.005) = 60 GHz.This is not light. This is microwave radio communication over relatively short distances.


A frequency of 1240 kHz What is the wavelength in meters?

Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) =(299,792,458) / (1,240,000) = 241.768 meters


What is the speed of a wave with a wavelength of MM and a frequency of Hz?

The speed of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and its frequency. (If you want to have the speed in meters/second, convert the wavelength to meters first.)


Which waves would have a longer wave length those with 56Hz frequency or 2 MHz frequency?

Wavelength at 2 MHz = 149.896 meters Wavelength at 56 Hz = 5,353.437 meters Lower frequency --> longer wavelength. Higher frequency --> shorter wavelength When you multiply (frequency) times (wavelength), the result is always the same number.


What is the velocity of a wave that has a frequency of 50Hz and a wavelength of 20 meters?

Wave speed = (frequency) x (wavelength) = (50) x (20) = 1,000 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 frequency of radiation whose wavelength is 0.0000240?

12.5 terahertz. If your wavelength is in meters.


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.
