Question

What is the frequency of a microwave that has a wavelength of 0.050 m?

Answer 1

Frequency Wavelength 1/4 Wavelength 1/20 Wavelength 1/100 Wavelength
600 MHz 0.5 meters 12.5 cm 2.5 cm 5.0 mm

if that helps at all

Answer 2

`6x10^9Hz`

Step-by-step explanation:

we use a formula that relates the frequency and the wavelength:

`f=(c)/(\lambda)`

where
`f` is the frequency of the wave,
`c` is the speed of light
`c=3x10^8m/s`, and
`\lambda` is the wavelength.

We know that the wavelength is:
`\lambda=0.050m`, so substituting the known values in the equation for the frequency we get:

`f=(3x10^8m/s)/(0.05m) \\f=6x10^9s^(-1)=6x10^9Hz`

The frequency is:

`6x10^9Hz`
