How far does light travel in one year? [This distance is known as a light-year (ly) and is used in measuring astronomical distances.] I think the answer might have to be in scientific notationn form
The news station I listen to is called “WTOP 103.5.” This means that they broadcast radio wave at a frequency of 103.5 MHz. What is the wavelength of this radio wave, in meters?
Radio waves travel at the speed of light: 300,000 km/s. What is the wavelength of radio waves received at 100.1 MHz on your FM radio dial?
An FM radio station transmits at a frequency of 100 MHz. What is the wavelength of these radio waves in meters? (How do I find the wavelengths?)
The moon is 1.3 light-seconds away. Imagine you are standing at the Canadian Space Agency headquarters in St. Hubert, Quebec and you bounce a 755 MHz radio signal off the moon (the moon acts like a mirror, reflecting the signal, such that it comes back to you). How long will it take for that radio signal to get back to you on earth? Answer in seconds with one decimal place.

Covid Bryant built an electronic measuring device that depends on determining how long it takes light to travel from the device to a target and back to the device. If Covid Bryant's device indicates that it takes 0.0001056 seconds for light to travel from device to target to device, what is the distance between the device and the target in feet? Assume that the speed of light is 186,218 miles per second for existing atmospheric conditions.
The radio waves that travel through the air to our car/truck/home radios are just another type of light. Let's say that your favorite radio station is 87.9 on the FM dial. That means that those radio waves have a frequency of 87.9 MHz. (a) What are the wavelength of those radio waves? (b) How fast would these radio waves travel through water?
