The frequency of radio waves corresponding to a wavelength of \(10 \mathrm{~m}\) is

  1. A \(3 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{~Hz}\)
  2. B \(3.3 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{~Hz}\)
  3. C \(3 \times 10^{9} \mathrm{~Hz}\)
  4. D \(3 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{~Hz}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(3 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{~Hz}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Wavelength, \(\lambda=10 \mathrm{~m}\)
\(
c=3 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}
\)
By using \(c=v \lambda\)
\(
v=\frac{c}{\lambda}=\frac{3 \times 10^{8}}{10}=3 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{~Hz}
\)
