Nature of EM Waves & Wave Equation

If frequency of electromagnetic wave is 60 MHz60\text{ MHz} and it travels in air along zz direction then the corresponding electric and magnetic field vectors will be mutually perpendicular to each other and the wavelength of the wave (in m\text{m}) is:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. λ=cν\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}.
  2. λ=3×10860×106=5 m\lambda = \frac{3\times 10^{8}}{60\times 10^{6}} = 5\ \text{m}.
  3. So the answer is (b) 5.
