Wavelength of radio waves λ is speed of light c divided by frequency f.
speed of radio waves c = 299 792 458 m/s and frequency f = 1,400,000 Hz = 1/s
Wavelength λ = 299 792 458 m/s divided by 1,400,000 Hz (cycles/sec)= 214.13747 meters.

= (300,000,000 meters per second) divided by (1,320,000,000 per second)
= 0.227 meter.
======================
We're guessing the question meant to say "1.320 million" ... in the middle
of the AM broadcast band ... and the decimal point disappeared. In that
case, the wavelength is
(3 x 108) / (1.32 x 106) = 227.273 meters (rounded) = 745.65 feet (rounded)

There are no radio 'stations' transmitting on frequencies anywhere near
1940 million cycles per second.
The closest to those digits may be AM radio stations, between 550 thousand
and 1700 thousand.
The wavelength range corresponding to that AM band is 176.3 meters to 545.1 meters.

So the answer is (3.0*10^8)/(1.4*10^9)=.214286 meters

That's 315,789,000,000 nanometers.

How do you convert frequency from meters to megahertz?
"Meters" is not frequency. It's wavelength. If you know the wavelength in meters, divide 300 by it, and the result is the frequency in MHz. If you know the frequency in MHz, divide 300 by it, and the result is the wavelength in meters.
What is the wavelength of the radio waves for a station broadcasting at 830 kilohertz?
Wavelength = (speed of light) / (frequency) = (300,000,000 m/s) / (830,000) = 361.4 meters (rounded)
What is the frequency of this am radio wave in hertz when An AM radio station broadcasts news at 687 kHz?
For any wave, frequency x wavelength = speed (of the wave). In this case, convert the kHz to Hz, then divide the speed of light by this frequency. The speed of light should be in meters/second. The answer will be the wavelength in meters.
AM radio dials are calibrated in frequency. A certain AM Brockville radio station broadcasts at a frequency of 830 kHz. What is the wavelength of these radio waves expressed in meters?

What is the wavelength of radio waves transmitted by a radio station with a frequency of 1760 million cycles per second?
Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) = (300 million meters/sec) / (1.760 GHz) = 17 centimetersDivide the speed of light (in meters/second) by the frequency (cycles/second). The answer will be in meters.
A radio station's channel such as 100.7 FM or 92.3 FM is actually its frequency in megahertz where Calculate the broadcast wavelength of the radio station 104.9 FM?
Wavelength = Speed of light/frequency Wavelength= 300'000'000/104'900'000 (FM 104.9 is frequency modulation 104.9 MHz) Wavelength=2.86 meters

What is the wavelength of the radiation produced by a 2.70 GHz microwave?
The wavelength of the radiation produced by a 2.70 GHz microwave is approximately 11.1 centimeters.
What is the wavelength of a radio station with a signal of 95.5 MHz?
speed of light = wavelength * frequence speed of light = 3*10 8th power
What is the wavelength of a radio photon from an AM radio station that broadcasts at 760 kilohertz?
(300,000,000 meters per second) / (750,000 waves per second) = 400 meters per wave
What is the speed of a wave with a wavelength of MM and a frequency of Hz?
The speed of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and its frequency. (If you want to have the speed in meters/second, convert the wavelength to meters first.)
Which waves would have a longer wave length those with 56Hz frequency or 2 MHz frequency?
Wavelength at 2 MHz = 149.896 meters Wavelength at 56 Hz = 5,353.437 meters Lower frequency --> longer wavelength. Higher frequency --> shorter wavelength When you multiply (frequency) times (wavelength), the result is always the same number.
