Frequency Units
Wavelength Units
G = GHz M = MHz k = kHz H = Hz
#VALUE indicates invalid units entered
k = km m = m mm = mm n = nautical mile s = statute mile f = foot i = inch
Hummer H2 (189.8 in) = 62.2 MHz
Golden Gate Bridge (6,450 ft) = 153 kHz
Earth Equatorial Diameter (7,926 mi) = 23.5 Hz
Wavelength and frequency are related by the following formula:
c = l * u * √er,
where c = speed of light l = wavelength u = frequency er = relative permittivity
Here are some familiar objects and their equivalent wavelength-related frequencies in air:
0402 Surface Mount Capacitor (0.040 in) = 295 GHz
Ticonderoga #2 Wooden Pencil (7.5") = 1.57 GHz
Meter Stick (1 m) = 300 MHz
Boeing 747-400 (231'10") = 4.24 MHz
Channel Tunnel, "Chunnel" (37 km) = 8.10 kHz
