Between 3kHz to 300GHz.

AM radio is considered a medium wave bandwave. In Europe it works between 526.5 kHz to 1606.5 kHz. In America and other countries it's usually between 535 kHz to 1705 kHz.

FM radio usually 87.5 to 108.0 MHz is used through out the world.

The radio spectrum for communications spans approximately from 150 kHz to 26 MHz.

wavelength [m] = c [m/s] / frequency [s-1], where c = speed of light ~ 3x108 [m/s].

The corresponding range of wavelength would be about 11 [m] to 2000 [m].

It depends which part of the radio spectrum you're talking about ! Radio wavelengths measure anything from a few millimetres to many metres !

To determine the wavelength of a radio signal, take the speed of light and divide by the frequency of the signal. For instance, radio station WALK in Long Island broadcasts on 97.5 MHz. Take 2.99x108 m s-1 divided by 9.75x107 cycles s-1 and you get 3.07 m cycle-1.

Longwave AM Radio = 148.5 - 283.5 kHz (LF) Mediumwave AM Radio = 530 kHz - 1710 kHz (MF) Shortwave AM Radio = 3 MHz - 30 MHz (HF)

What is the Dimension of Wavelength?

The give-away should be the word "length" which is hidden in the word "wavelength". Wavelength has the dimensions of length, and is most often stated in meters or centimeters (radio), nanometers (light), etc.


What is the longest wave length?

Radio waves are the electromagnetic waves with longest wavelength.


Which wavelength would ensure that that radiation of that wavelength would be a radio wave?

How do you change a wavelength to scientific notation?

The answer depends on what the wave length is in ordinary numbers! For example, radio waves can have a wavelength of 1 metre: in scientific notation, that is 1!


Which waves have shorter wavelengths radio waves or x rays?

X-rays have by far the shorter wavelength. Radio waves can go from several meters in length to miles in length. X-rays, on the other hand, have a wavelength of 0.01 to 10 nanometers. (Nanometers are one-billionth of a meter thick. For a better picture, think of a millimeter - and divide it into one million.)


Which has longer wavelength radio v light?

Radio waves have a longer wavelength than visible light.


Do radio waves have short or long wavelength?

Short wavelength


Which has a longer wavelength radio or infrared?

Radio wave.


Is a wavelength of a radio longer or shorter than a radio wavelength?

That depends on what station the radio is tuned to and the other radio signal. In general, they tend to be quite similar if not identical.
