An electromagnetic radio wave is received by a transmitter before it is converted to a sound wave. the radio wave has a wavelength of 23,076 m and a frequency of 13,000 hz. what velocity is the wave traveling at before the transmitter converts it to a sound wave?

The velocity is the wave traveling at before the transmitter converts it to a sound wave is

Explanation:

Wavelength of the  electromagnetic wave = 23,076 m

Frequency of the wave = 13,000 Hertz

The velocity is the wave traveling at before the transmitter converts it to a sound wave is

The velocity the wave was traveling at before the transmitter converts it to a sound wave is 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s.

Velocity of waves

The velocity of waves is the rate of change of the wave's displacement with time.

The velocity of waves is determined by taking the product of the wave's frequency and wavelength.

v = fλ

v = 13,000 x 23,076

v = 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s.

Thus, the velocity the wave was traveling at before the transmitter converts it to a sound wave is 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s.

hi there!

out of the two, (b) precision would be more reasonable.   however, both a and b could be pretty reasonable.
