Detailed Solution for Wavelength at frequency 1 MHz

The distance between consecutive crests of a wave, particularly the points of an electromagnetic wave is known as its wavelength. The wavelength and frequency are closely related. Higher the frequency, shorter is the wavelength.

The relationship between wavelength and frequency is described by this simple equation:

λ =
v / f

Where,

λ = Wavelength

v = velocity of the wave

f = frequency


The Wavelength is expressed in m, velocity is expressed in m/s, frequency is expressed in Hz.

Step by Step Solution to find wavelenght at frequency f = 299792458 :

Given that,

v = 299792458 m/s (light in vacuum)

f = 1 MHz

=> Now, Convert the Wavefrequency (f) 1 MHz to "Hertz (Hz)"

F = 1 x 1000000

F = 1000000 Hz

Substitute the value into the formula

λ =
299792458 / 1000000

λ = 299.792458 m

∴ Wavelength (λ) = 299.792458 m
