Very high frequency (VHF) has a ______ wavelength.
A
Shortest
B
Shorter
C
Longest
D
Longer
Correct Option:
B
Explanation
Frequency and wavelength are inversely related: c = fλ. For electromagnetic waves travelling at the same speed, increasing frequency means decreasing wavelength. Therefore Very High Frequency (VHF) waves have shorter wavelengths than lower-frequency radio waves. "Shortest" would be inaccurate because still higher-frequency bands such as UHF, SHF and EHF have even shorter wavelengths.
