Answer:
As the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave _decrease__ the frequency of the wave _increase_______.
Explanation:
What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength?
Wavelength and frequency of light are closely related. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength.
That number, also known as the frequency, will be larger for a short-wavelength wave than for a long-wavelength wave. The equation that relates wavelength and frequency is:
V= fλ
where v= velocity
f= frequency
λ = wavelength
⇒ f = v/λ
also f ∝ 1/λ
For electromagnetic radiation, the speed is equal to the speed of light, c, and the equation becomes:
C= fλ
where c= Speed of light
f= frequency
λ = wavelength
⇒ f = v/λ
also f ∝ 1/λ
To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of movement description, specifically those that allow us to find speed and acceleration as a function of distance and not time.
Mathematically we have to
Where,
Final velocity and Initial velocity
a = Acceleration
x = Displacement
From the description given there is no final speed (since it reaches the maximum point) but there is a required initial speed that is contingent on traveling a certain distance under the effects of gravity
Therefore the speed which must a rock thrown straight up is 14*10^2m/s to reach the edge of our atmosphere.
The displacement and gravity traveled are the same, therefore the final speed will be the same but in the opposite vector direction (towards the earth), that is
