Answer:

10 GHz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf.................... Equation 1

Where v = speed of microwave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency.

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ................ Equation 2

Note: Microwave is an electromagnetic wave, and all electromagnetic wave have the same speed, which is 3×10⁸ m/s

From the question,

Given: λ = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Constant; v = 3×10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 3×10⁸/(0.03)

f = 10¹⁰ Hz

f = (10¹⁰/10⁹) GHz

f = 10 GHz
