Answer:

Wavelength = 3.74 m

Explanation:

In order to find wavelength in "metres", we must first convert megahertz to hertz.

1 MHz = 1 × 10⁶ Hz

80.3 Mhz = x

x = 80.3 × 1 × 10⁶ = 8.03 × 10⁷ Hz

The formula between wave speed, frequency and wavelength is:

v = fλ  [where v is wave speed, f is frequency and λ is wavelength]

Reorganise the equation and make λ the subject.

λ = v ÷ f

λ = (3 × 10⁸) ÷ (8.03 × 10⁷)

λ = 3.74 m [rounded to 3 significant figures]
