What is the frequency range of radio waves?

Ground/ surface wave propagation is a mode of propagation in which the signal wave glides over the surface of earth, while going from transmitter to receiver. In this mode, there is a loss of power (i.e., attenuation) of signal wave due to diffraction and absorption of signal wave energy by ground. The attenuation of ground / surface wave signal increases very rapidly with the increase in its frequency. Therefore, the ground/ surface wave propagation is not suitable for the propagation of high frequency signal wave and for very long range communication. Read the above passage and answer the following questions: (i) What is the frequency range of a signal wave employed for the ground wave propagation? (ii) For what purpose the ground wave propagation is used? (iii) What does the study of ground wave propagation imply in day to day life?
