Solution:

This given frequency corresponds to the radio waves i.e short wavelength or high frequency.
Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer than infrared light in the electromagnetic spectrum. Charged particles undergoing acceleration, such as time-varying electric currents, produce radio waves. Transmitters create artificial radio waves, which radio receivers receive through antennas. In modern technology, radio waves are commonly used in fixed and mobile radio transmission, television, radar and radio navigation systems, communications satellites, cellular computer networks, and a variety of other applications.
