f = 2870 MHz = 2870 000 000 Hz v = 3 x 108 ms-1 l = ?

l = v f = 3 x 108 2 870 000 000 = 0.1045296167247387 m TOO MANY SIG FIGS.

SO 0.1 or 0.105 m is acceptable

t = ? v = 3 x 108 ms-1 d = 980 km = 980 x 103 m

t = d v = 980 x 103

3 x 108

= 0.0032666666666…. s HAS TOO MANY SIG. FIGS,

SO….0.0033 s or 3.3 x 10 -3 s
