Television sets used rabbit-ears antennas

Reference no: EM13647995

At one time,television sets used "rabbit-ears" antennas. Such an antennaconsists of a pair of metal rods. The length of each rod can beadjusted to be one-quarter of a wavelengthof an electromagnetic wave whose frequency is 65.0 MHz. How long is each rod?
