Some radar systems detect the size and shape of objects such as aircraft and geological terrain. Approximately what is the smallest observable detail (in m) utilizing 495 MHz radar?

0.61 m

Explanation:

The smallest observable length by the radar must be at least equal to or greater than the wavelength of the radar.

using the relationship

c = fλ

where

c is the speed of light in vacuum = 3 x 10^8 m/s

f is the frequency of the wave = 495 MHz = 4.95 x 10^8 Hz

λ is the wavelength = ?

λ = c/f = (3 x 10^8)/(4.95 x 10^8) = 0.61 m

what type of charge does it have? negative

the answer would be 32*f
