Wavelength = (speed) divided by (frequency)

= (3 x 108) / (3 x 109) = 0.1 meter = 10 centimeters

What is the speed of a microwave with 3 GHz frequency?

For any electromagnetic wave, the wavelength depends on the frequency, but the speed doesn't. They all have the same speed. It's 300 million meters per second, regardless of the frequency. The wavelength at 3 GHz is 10 centimeters.


What is its wavelength in meters if The frequency of a microwave signal is 9.76 GHz?

Wavelength = (speed of light) divided by (frequency) = (3 x 108) / (9.76 x 109) = 0.03074 meter


What limits the frequency of microwave?

3 ghz to 300ghz


What is the wavelength of a microwave having a frequency of 7.74 MHz?

EM radiation with a wavelength of 15 cm has a frequency of 1.9987 GHz. (Giga Hertz) or close enough to 2GHz. Technically this is in the UHF (Ultra High Frequency) section of the radio spectrum which is 300MHz to 3GHz.


What type of wave is microwave?

"Microwave" is an electromagnetic wave, and is part of the category of radio waves.A radio wave is "microwave" when its frequency is above 3 GHz (wavelength isless than 10 centimeters).Ironically, the "microwave oven" radiates the food with high power radio wavesat a frequency of 2.5 GHz, so technically, it doesn't use 'microwave' energy at all.


What range of wavelengths do microwaves have?

10 centimeters or less If you mean "microwave oven", those operate at the frequency of 2.45 GHz, where the wavelength is 12.24 centimeters.


Radio frequecy used by microwave transmission?

The formal definition of "microwave" is any frequency greater than 3 GHz. (Wavelength less than 10 centimeters.) Frequency bands allocated for microwave radio communication in the US are found in the neighborhoods of 6, 11, 13, 18, 23, 24, 27, and 38 GHz. Note: It looks like the the formal definition of "microwave" doesn't include microwave ovens ... they operate at 2.45 GHz.


A wave has a frequency of 3 GHz and a speed of 3 x 108 ms what is the wavelength?

velocity.,i.e., speed = frequency X wavelength wavelength=velocity/frequency=(3X108m/s)/(3X109/s)=0.1m


What is the frequency of light traveling in a vacuum with a wavelength of 1 mm?

Frequency = speed / wavelength = 3 x 108/0.001 = 300 GHz . (rounded)Most folks would call that a "millimeter wave" or a "darnedshort microwave", not light. It's certainly not visible.


What is the average frequency of a microwave?

"Microwave" radiation is any radio wave at frequencies between 3 GHz and 300 GHz. Microwave cooking ovens are licensed to operate at a certain definite frequency, just like any other radio transmitter is. For microwave ovens in the US, the frequency is 2.450 GHz.


What type of wave is a microwave?

a microwave is an electromagnetic wave.================Answer #2:A microwave is a radio wave with a wavelengthless than 10 cm (frequency greater than 3 GHz).


Microwave ovens typicaLLY cook food using microwaves with frequency 2.45 GHz show that trhe wavelength of these microwaves is 12.2 cm?

answer=0.125m convert 2.40 GHz to Hz (1GHz = 10^9Hz) (3*10^8)/(2.40*10^9)=1.25*10^8um
