The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

A VHF television station assigned to channel transmits its signal using radio waves with a frequency of 66.0 MHz. Calculate the wavelength of the radio waves. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

Answer: The wavelength of the radio waves is 4.54 m

Explanation:

To calculate the wavelength of light, we use the equation:

[tex]\lambda=\frac{c}{\nu}[/tex]

where,

[tex]\lambda[/tex] = wavelength of the light

c = speed of light = [tex]3\times 10^8m/s[/tex]

[tex]\nu[/tex] = frequency of light = [tex]66.0MHz=66.0\times 10^6s^{-1}[/tex]

Putting the values in above equation, we get:

[tex]\lambda=\frac{3\times 10^8m/s}{66.0\times 10^{6}s^{-1}}=4.54m[/tex]

Hence, the wavelength of the radio waves is 4.54 m
