Answer: 500metres

Explanation:

Wavelength is defined as the distance between two successive crest and troughs. The relationship between the wavelength (¶), frequency (f) and velocity of the wave(v) is given by v= f¶

Therefore wavelength ¶ = v/f

Given the velocity = 3×10^8m/s

frequency = 600kHz = 600,000Hz

Wavelength =3×10^8/600,000

Wavelength = 500meters

Their wavelength in meters is 500meters
