Question : 5
Total: 15
A radio can tune in to any station in the 7.5 MHz to 12 MHz ban. What is the corresponding wavelength band?
Solution:  
Maximum wavelength in the band is for lowest frequency
c = vminλmax
λmax =
c
vmin
=
3×108
7.5×106
= 40 m
Minimum wavelength in the band is for highest frequency
c = vmaxλmin
λmin =
c
vmax
=
3×108
12×106
= 25 m
So, the wavelength band for tuning is between 25 m to 40 m.
