A radio station's channel, such as 100.7 fm or 92.3 fm, is actually its frequency in megahertz (mhz), where 1mhz=106hz. calculat
lakkis [162]
When it comes to wave behavior, there are parameters called wavelength and frequency. These two are related by speed of the radiowave. Radiowaves are electromagnetic waves which travels as fast as light. The wavelength is the distance while frequency is the reciprocal of time. When you multiply them both, you get the electromagnetic wave's speed. The equation is c = wavelength*frequency, where c is the speed of light equal to 3 x 10^8 m/s. 

3 x10^8 m/s = wavelength/104.9 x 10^6 Hz   (Hertz is 1/s)
wavelength = 2.86 meters

How long (in ns) does it take light to travel 1.0 m in vacuum?
Tema [17]
If light travels 290,000,000 meters in 1 second, simply divide 1 second by 290,000,000 to find the time it takes to travel 1 meter.

1 / 290,000,000 = 0.000000003448 seconds (<em>or 3.5 nano seconds</em>)

If the radius of a star increases by a factor of 6 the surface area of the star increases how many times?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

When radius of star increase by 6 factor then area of star will increase by a factor of 36.

Explanation:

As we know that

Area of star A given as

A=4\pi R^2

Where R is the radius of star.

Area of star when radius become 6 times

A'=4\pi (6R)^2

A'=4\pi \times 36\times R^2

So

A'=36A

We can say that when radius of star increase by 6 factor then area of star will increase by a factor of 36.
