An electromagnetic wave has a velocity "c", the universal wave equation velocity = wavelength * frequency
the wavelength then equal c / frequency
then the wavelength of that wave is : Lambda= c / Nu
= 299792458 / 3*1000000 = 99.930819333333333333333333333333 meters ~ 100 meters
(Lambda is the wavelength, Nu is the frequency).
====================================
To summarize:
Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) = (3 x 108) / (3 x 106) = 102 = 100 meters, in vacuum
A wave with a frequency in the GHz range has a shorter wavelength compared to a wave in the MHz range. This is because wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional: as frequency increases, wavelength decreases.
300 MHz: λ = about 3.278 feet.
The wavelength of a radar wave with a frequency of 17.5 GHz (17500 MHz) is about 17 millimeters. (3 x 108 m s-1 divided by 1.75 x 1010 cycles s-1)
The wavelength of an electromagnetic wave can be calculated using the formula: wavelength = speed of light / frequency. Plugging in the values, we have: wavelength = (3 x 10^8 m/s) / (60 x 10^6 Hz) = 5 meters. Therefore, the wavelength of the wave is 5 meters.
The waves with a 2 MHz frequency would have a longer wavelength compared to waves with a 56 Hz frequency. Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency, so as frequency increases, the wavelength decreases.
Wavelength is calculated in MHz not Hz, and the formula is Wavelength = 300 / MHz
Frequency = speed/wavelength = 300,000,000/3 = 100 MHz.
From the universal wave equation v = fλ, we can find that for an EM wave with wavelength 100 m and speed 300000000 m/s (all EM radiation propagate at speed of light), its frequency is 3000000 Hz or 3 MHz. This corresponds to the wavelength of radio waves, specifically short wave AM radio waves (aka HF raio waves), which has a frequency range of 3 MHz to 30 MHz.
A wave with a frequency in the GHz range has a shorter wavelength compared to a wave in the MHz range. This is because wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional: as frequency increases, wavelength decreases.

300 MHz: λ = about 3.278 feet.
The wavelength of a radar wave with a frequency of 17.5 GHz (17500 MHz) is about 17 millimeters. (3 x 108 m s-1 divided by 1.75 x 1010 cycles s-1)
The wavelength of an electromagnetic wave can be calculated using the formula: wavelength = speed of light / frequency. Plugging in the values, we have: wavelength = (3 x 10^8 m/s) / (60 x 10^6 Hz) = 5 meters. Therefore, the wavelength of the wave is 5 meters.
Wavelength = (speed of light) divided by (frequency).In free space, wavelength = (3 x 108) / (800 x 106) = 0.375 meterNote that 800 MHz is in the same general frequency range as many cellular telephone systems.
The waves with a 2 MHz frequency would have a longer wavelength compared to waves with a 56 Hz frequency. Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency, so as frequency increases, the wavelength decreases.
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.
56 Hz.
