The major shortcoming of Rutherford's model was that it was incomplete. It did not explain how the atom's negatively charged electrons are distrubuted in the space surronding its positively charged nucleus. A form of energy that exhibits wavelike behavior as it travels through space

A radio station's channel, such as 100.7 fm or 92.3 fm, is actually its frequency in megahertz (mhz), where 1mhz=106 hz and 1hz=

AURORKA [14]

The frequency of the radio station is
$f=88.7 fm= 88.7 MHz = 88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz$

For radio waves (which are electromagnetic waves), the relationship between frequency f and wavelength $\lambda$ is
$\lambda= \frac{c}{f}$
where c is the speed of light. Substituting the frequency of the radio station, we find the wavelength:
$\lambda= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz}=3.38 m$
