10.3 cm The wavelength will be the distance that light travels in 1 second divided by the frequency of the radiation. Since the over operates at 2.60 ghz, the frequence is 2.6 billion times per second, or 2.60 x 10^9. The speed of light is defined as 299792458 m/s exactly. So 299792458 m/s / 2.60 x 10^9 1/s = 0.10337671 m = 10.337671 cm Since we only have 3 significant digits, the answer rounds to 10.3 cm
