Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Using the wave relation λ=cν\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}, where c=3×108 m/sc = 3 \times 10^8\text{ m/s} and ν=819 kHz=819×103 Hz\nu = 819\text{ kHz} = 819 \times 10^3\text{ Hz}: λ=3×1088.19×105≈366.3 m=3.66×102 m\lambda = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{8.19 \times 10^5} \approx 366.3\text{ m} = 3.66 \times 10^2\text{ m}.
