Question 2

The speed of electromagnetic waves in dry air is 3.0 × 108 m/s.

The wavelength of a microwave signal transmitted between two telecommunication towers is 1.2 × 10-2 m.

Calculate the frequency of this microwave signal.

State the unit.

Use the equation:

frequency=speedwavelength \text{frequency} = \frac{\text{speed}}{\text{wavelength}} frequency=wavelengthspeed​
