  • Radio Wave Frequency Calculation: Wavelength to Frequency Conversion
    The frequency of a radio wave is inversely proportional to its wavelength, so the longer the wavelength, the lower the frequency. The formula for calculating the frequency of a radio wave is:

    ```

    f = c / λ

    ```

    where:

    * f is the frequency in Hertz (Hz)

    * c is the speed of light in meters per second (m/s)

    * λ is the wavelength in meters (m)

    In this case, the wavelength is 3 m, so the frequency is:

    ```

    f = 300,000,000 m/s / 3 m = 100,000,000 Hz = 100 MHz

    ```

    Therefore, the frequency of a radio wave with wavelength 3 m is 100 MHz.
