Answer:
Frequency = 500MHz = 500 x 10^6Hz
Wavelength = 60 cm = 0.6 m
Velocity of wave = frequency x wavelength
= 500x 10^6 x 0.6
= 3 x 108m/s
Hope it will help you!

Answer
The formula for velocity, when given wavelength and the frequency of the wave, is written as: v=fλ.
In this formula, f represents frequency, V represents the velocity of the wave, and λ represents the wavelength of the wave.
Here, the frequency of the wave is 500MHz=500000000Hz and the wavelength is 60cm=0.6m
Therefore, the velocity of the wave is 3×10
8
m/s.
This determined velocity is the velocity of the light in air. Hence, the medium through which the wave is travelling is air.
