Answer:
If the radio wave is on an FM station, these are in Megahertz. A megahertz is one ... Typical radio wave frequencies are about 88~108 MHz .
Explanation:
To calculate the wavelength of a radio wave, you will be using the equation: Speed of a wave = wavelength X frequency.
Since radio waves are electromagnetic waves and travel at 2.997 X
10
8
meters/second, then you will need to know the frequency of the radio wave.
If the radio wave is on an FM station, these are in Megahertz. A megahertz is one million hertz. If the radio wave is from an AM radio station, these are in kilohertz (there are one thousand hertz in a kilohertz). Hertz are waves/second. Hertz is usually the label for the frequency of electromagnetic waves.
To conclude, to determine the wavelength of a radio wave, you take the speed and divide it by the frequency.
Typical radio wave frequencies are about

Guess I recommend doing that
I'm guessing that you mean like this:
-- The ruler is held with zero at the bottom, and the centimeter markings
increase as you go up the ruler.
-- You place your fingers with the ruler and the zero mark between them.
-- The number where you catch the ruler is the distance it has fallen.
Then, all we have to find is the time it takes for the ruler to fall 11.3 cm .
Here's the formula for the distance an object falls from rest
in a certain time:
Distance = (1/2) (gravity) (time)²
On Earth, the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².
So we can write ...
11.2 cm = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (time)²
or
0.112 meter = (4.9 m/s²) (time)²
Divide each side
by 4.9 m/s² : (0.112 m) / (4.9 m/s²) = time²
(0.112 / 4.9) sec² = time²
Square root
each side: time = √(0.112/4.9 sec²)
= √ 0.5488 sec²
= 0.74 second (rounded)
