In it's most simplest form..

Create a file called hello_world.wsgi with the following contents. This should be outside of your DocumentRoot so that Apache is unable to serve it up as plain text:

def application(environ, start_response):
    status = '200 OK'
    output = 'Hello World!'

    response_headers = [('Content-type', 'text/plain'),
                        ('Content-Length', str(len(output)))]
    start_response(status, response_headers)

    return [output]

Then configure your vhost to serve all requests beneath / from that script:

WSGIScriptAlias / <path_to_script>/hello_world.wsgi

Have you actually tried reading the mod_wsgi documentation. That is what it is there for.
