A microwave source is placed on a horizontal surface at position X.
A shiny metal sheet is placed at position Y that is a distance of 0.48 m from X.
The microwaves are reflected back from the metal sheet towards the source.
A microwave detector is moved from X to Y and all positions of minimum microwave intensity are recorded.
Intensity minima were detected at X and Y and also at 15 positions in between X and Y.
The speed of the microwaves is m s.
What is the frequency of the microwaves emitted by the source?
