The speed of light is 300,000,000 m/s. shat is the frequency of microwaves with a wavelength of 0.01 meter

The frequency of the microwave is, f = 30 GHz

Explanation:

Given data,

The velocity of the light, c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

The wavelength of the microwave, λ = 0.01 m

The velocity of propagation of a wave is equal to the product of frequency and wavelength of the wave. Therefore frequency is given by,

                                           f = c / λ

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                                           f = 3 x 10⁸ / 0.01

                                             = 30 GHz

Hence, the frequency of the microwave is, f = 30 GHz
