Answer:

200 nm

Explanation:

Microwaves are Electromagnetic waves.

Electromagnetic waves are waves that are created as a result of vibrations between an electric field and a magnetic field.

EM waves travel at the speed of light

( that is always 3 x 10⁸ ms⁻¹  in a vacuum.)

By the definition of the velocity of waves

V = fλ

  • where ,  
  • V - Velocity
  • f -  frequency
  • λ - wavelength

V = fλ

3 * 10⁸ ms¹ = 1.5 * 10¹⁵ Hz *  λ

λ = 2 * 10⁻⁷ m = 200 *10 ⁻⁹ m

   = 200 nm

(1 nm = 1 *10 ⁻⁹ m )
