An AM station broadcasts rock music at “950 on your radio dial.” Units for AM frequencies are given in kilohertz (kHz). Find the wavelength of the station’s radio waves in meters (m), nanometers (nm), and angstroms (Å).
The frequency range for AM radio is 540 to 1600 kHz. The frequency range for FM radio is 88.0 to 108 MHz.
Part (a) Caculate the maximum wavelength for AM radio in meters. Part (b) Caculate the minimum wavelength for AM radio in meters.
Part (c) Caculate the maximum wavelength for FM radio in meters.
Part (d) Caculate the minimum wavelength for FM radio in meters.
The AM radio band in a particular area has a frequency range of 554 kHz to 1620 kHz. How long is the wavelength of the radiation
at the beginning of the range and how long is the wavelength of the radiation at the end of the range? Answer in units of m.
