🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between frequency and wavelength of electromagnetic waves • Speed of radio waves (same as speed of light ≈ 3 × 10^8 m/s) • Basic formula: wavelength = speed / frequency

💭 Think About

• Convert 9.5 GHz into hertz and carefully track your units when you plug into the formula • After calculating the wavelength in meters, convert it into centimeters to match the answer choices • Compare your approximate result with the choices and pick the closest value

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you express 9.5 GHz correctly as 9.5 × 10^9 Hz • Use 3 × 10^8 m/s as a good approximation for the speed of radio waves in air • Double-check your meter-to-centimeter conversion: 1 m = 100 cm before deciding which option is closest
