Answer:

2.93 m (which agrees with answer "C" on the list)

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the speed of the wave equals the product of the wave's length times its frequency. Therefore, the wavelength is going to be the quotient of the speed of the signal divided its frequency:

Wavelength = 2.997 10^8 / 1.023 10^8 = 2.93 m
