A TV satellite dish is designed to receive radio waves of wavelength
0.0644 meters. What is the frequency of the waves it receives? _______GHz

Give your answer in gigahertz (GHz). 1 GHz = 10^9 Hz.

Give your answer to the nearest tenth of a GHz (one place after the decimal). Just enter the number; do NOT use scientific notation.

Answer:

4.7 GHz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf................. Equation 1

Where v = velocity of the radio wave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ.............. Equation 2

Note: A radio wave is an electromagnetic wave, as such it moves with a velocity of 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

From the question,

Given: λ = 0.0644 meters

Constant: v = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = (3.00 x 10⁸)/0.0644

f = 4.66×10⁹ Hz

f = 4.7 GHz
