Compared to yellow light, orange light has C. a longer wavelength

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Electromagnetic waves are waves that do not need a medium to propagate.

The speed of this wave in vacuum is about 3 × 10⁸ m/s.

Examples of these waves if sorted from the smallest frequency to the largest frequency are as follows:

Radio waves
Microwaves
Infra Red Light
Visible Light
Ultraviolet Light
X-rays
Gamma rays

Let us now tackle the problem!

Visible light can be further divided into spectrum as follows:

Red Light
Orange Light
Yellow Light
Green Light
Cyan Light
Blue Light
Violet Light

Red light has the smallest frequency while purple light has the greatest frequency.

The relationship between frequency and wavelength is as shown in the following formula :

$\large {\boxed {f = \frac{v}{\lambda} } }$

From the above formula it can be concluded that the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency of the wave.

<h2>Conclusion:</h2>

Red light has the largest wavelength while violet light has the smallest wavelength. Compared to yellow light, orange light has C. a longer wavelength.

C. a longer wavelength

Red has the longest wavelength and the wavelength decreases down the visible light spectrum to Violet which has the shortest wavelength

A single slit of width 0.3 mm is illuminated by a mercury light of wavelength 254 nm. Find the intensity at an 11° angle to the

MArishka [77]

Answer:

The the intensity at an 11° angle to the axis in terms of the intensity of the central maximum is

$I_c = \frac{I}{I_o} =8.48 *10^{-8}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The width of the slit is $D = 0.3 \ mm = 0.3 *10^{-3} \ m$

The wavelength is $\lambda = 254 \ nm = 254 *10^{-9} \ m$

The angle is $\theta = 11^o$

The intensity of at $11^o$ to the axis in terms of the intensity of the central maximum. is mathematically represented as

$I_c = \frac{I}{I_o} = [ \frac{sin \beta }{\beta }] ^2$

Where $\beta$ is mathematically represented as

$\beta = \frac{D sin (\theta ) * \pi}{\lambda }$

substituting values

$\beta = \frac{0.3 *10^{-3} sin (11 ) * 3.142}{254 *10^{-9} }$

$\beta = 708.1 \ rad$

$I_c = \frac{I}{I_o} = [ \frac{sin (708.1) }{(708.1)}] ^2$

$I_c = \frac{I}{I_o} =8.48 *10^{-8}$

Why can the Hubble space telescope make very detailed images in visible light

Andreyy89

Answer:

While Hubble provides views of deep space, it doesn't magnify distant stars, alien planets and galaxies. Instead, it collects more light than the human eye can see on its own. With a telescope, the bigger the mirror, the better the vision.

A person hits a tennis ball with a mass of 0.058 kg against a wall.

horrorfan [7]

Explanation:

Mass of the ball, m = 0.058 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 11 m/s

Final speed of the ball, v = -11 m/s (negative as it rebounds)

Time, t = 2.1 s

(a) Let F is the average force exerted on the wall. It is given by :
