Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)
Speed of light/radio/microwave = 3 x 108 meters per second
Wavelength in the microwave oven = (3 x 108) / (2.4 x 109) =
0.125 meter
12.5 centimeters
125 millimeters
125,000,000 nanometers
about 4.9 inches

∙ 7y agoHint: wavelength times frequency equals speed and the speed of light is constant. Also what does "rm" mean after 2.40?
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoFrequency = speed/wavelength = 3 x 108/.025 = 12 GHz
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoWavelength = (speed)/(frequency) = (3 x 108)/(2.45 x 109) = 0.1224 meter = 12.24 cm (rounded)

∙ 8y agoPeriod = reciprocal of frequency
Period = 1 / (2.25 x 10^9 per sec) = 0.44... x 10^-9 sec or 4/9 of a nanosecond.

What forms a electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength a range of ten to 0.01 nanometers and is used to tack images inside objects?
X rays is a form of electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength 0.01-10 nanometers and is used to track images inside objects.
What does the wavelength of visible light waves correspond to?
The wavelength of visible light corresponds to roughly 380 to 750 millionths of a millimeter.Any longer or shorter than that, and your eyes don't respond to the radiation.
What is invisible light energy wih wavelenghts?
Any wavelength shorter than roughly 400 nanometers, and any wavelength longer than roughly 700 nanometers, is invisible. That is, its presence is not detected by the human eye.
What is a microwave radiation?
Radio with mm to cm range wavelengths. It is longer wavelength than IR.
What are 3 forms of electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength higher than visible light?
infrared, microwave, radio

A microwave oven operates at 2.40 What is the wavelength of the radiation produced by this appliance?
Taking the speed of light to be 299,792,458 m/s 299,792,458 m/s / 2400,000,000 hertz = 0.124913524 meters
Microwave ovens emit microwave energy with a wavelength of 12.0 cm What is the energy of exactly one photon of this microwave radiation?
A photon of this wavelength has an energy of about 10 ^ -5 eV.
What electromagnetic radiation has wave lengths shorter then visible light but longer than X-rays?
Ultra-violet light (wavelength approx 10-390 nanometers) lies between visible light (wavelength approx 390-750 nanometers) and X-rays (wavelength approx 0.1-10 nanometers).
What does the wavelength of visible light waves correspond to?
The wavelength of visible light corresponds to roughly 380 to 750 millionths of a millimeter.Any longer or shorter than that, and your eyes don't respond to the radiation.
What is the x in X-ray?
X Radiation is a form of Electromagnetic Radiation with a wavelength 0.01 to 10 nanometers. The letter X was selected because it signifies an unknown type of radiation
What is the wavelength of visible radiation in Angstrom units?
380 nanometers [Violet] to 750 nanometers [Red].1 nanometer = 10 Angstroms.3800 Angstroms [Violet] to 7500 Angstroms [Red].
What is invisible light energy wih wavelenghts?
Any wavelength shorter than roughly 400 nanometers, and any wavelength longer than roughly 700 nanometers, is invisible. That is, its presence is not detected by the human eye.
What is the wavelength of the radiation produced by a 2.70 GHz microwave?
The wavelength of the radiation produced by a 2.70 GHz microwave is approximately 11.1 centimeters.
Do am radio waves have a lower frequency then ultra violet radiation?
Radio waves and ultraviolet waves are the same physical phenomenon.The difference is that radio waves have a much greater wavelength.(That's equivalent to saying that they have a much lower frequency.)
What is a microwave radiation?
Radio with mm to cm range wavelengths. It is longer wavelength than IR.
What is the frequency of microwave radiation with a wavelength of 3.4 cm?
2941176470.589 Hz or 2941.1764706 MHz or 2.9412GHz
