What is the wavelength of 11.5MHz a typical frequency for FM radio broadcasting?

The wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is given by the formula:

$$\lambda = \frac{c}{f}$$

where:

* λ is the wavelength in meters

* c is the speed of light (299,792,458 meters per second)

* f is the frequency in Hertz

In this case, the frequency is 11.5MHz, or 11,500,000 Hz. Substituting this value into the formula, we get:

$$\lambda = \frac{299,792,458 \text{ m/s}}{11,500,000 \text{ Hz}} = 26.07 \text{ m}$$

Therefore, the wavelength of 11.5MHz is 26.07 meters.
