Answer

Channel 2: $\lambda=5.56m$ Channel 51: $\lambda=0.434m$

Work Step by Step

Use equation 22–4, $c=\lambda f$ Channel 2: $$\lambda=\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3.00\times10^8m/s }{54.0\times10^6Hz}$$ $$\lambda=5.56m$$ Channel 51: $$\lambda=\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3.00\times10^8m/s }{692\times10^6Hz}$$ $$\lambda=0.434m$$
