a) Find the broadcast wavelength of LIVE 88.5 FM, which broadcasts at a frequency of 88.5 MHz. The velocity of a radio wave is 3.00 x 108 m/s b) While jogging east on a straight road Alan and Harry have their radios tuned to LIVE 85.5 FM. The broadcast signal is sent out simultaneously from two radio towers 38 km south of the road they are jogging on. At point A, equidistant from both sources, their radio volumes increase to a maximum. As they continue to jog east their radio volumes alternatively decrease and increase. After they have jogged 1100 m from point A their radios increase in volume for a fourth time (ie. four more times after point A) How far apart are the towers?
