Gravitational potential energy=mass of object x gravitational field strength on earth(9.8 usually rounded to 10) x the height the object is held at
Therefore if two objects were held at the same height, the object with more mass(the heavier object) will fall faster because it's gravitational potential energy is greater than that of the lighter object
Answer:
The correct options are:
B) They have the same wave speed as visible light
D) They have a lower frequency than gamma rays.
Explanation:
B) Ultraviolet rays, commonly known as UV rays, are a type of electromagnetic ways. As electromagnetic waves, in the layman's term, are all kinds of life that can be identified, all electromagnetic waves (UV rays, visible light, infrared, radio etc) all travel with the same velocity, that is the speed of light, given as v = 3 × 10⁸ m/s
D) The frequency of all electromagnetic rays can be found by electromagnetic spectrum (picture attached below).
We can clearly see in the picture that the frequencies of UV rays lie at about 10¹⁵ - 10¹⁶ Hz which is lower than the frequency of Gamma ray, which lie at about 10²⁰ Hz.
