Answer:

A. Wavelength

Explanation:

A wavelength is the distance between two successive crests or troughs of a wave.

The difference between blue light and red light is just that the rays of red light have longer wavelength than that of blue light.

Due to this, blue light has a higher frequency than red light. This is because wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional (the higher the wavelength, the lower the frequency).

c = λ * f

Where  λ = wavelength, c = speed of light, f = frequency

Hence, blue light has more energy than red light, because energy is directly proportional to frequency (the higher the frequency, the higher the energy)

E = hf

Where h = Plancks constant

Answer:

1 astronomical unit, or AU, is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun; that's about 150 million km. So, Neptune's average distance from the Sun is 30.1 AU. Its perihelion is 29.8 AU, and it's aphelion is 30.4 AU.

Short Answer: it is 29

Explanation:

sorry if its wrong

suggest an experiment to prove that the rate of evaporation of a liquid depends on its surface area vapour already present in su
gulaghasi [49]
That's two different things it depends on:

-- surface area exposed to the air
AND
-- vapor already present in the surrounding air.

Here's what I have in mind for an experiment to show those two dependencies:

-- a closed box with a wall down the middle, separating it into two closed sections;

-- a little round hole in the east outer wall, another one in the west outer wall,
and another one in the wall between the sections;
So that if you wanted to, you could carefully stick a soda straw straight into one side,
through one section, through the wall, through the other section, and out the other wall.

-- a tiny fan that blows air through a tube into the hole in one outer wall.

<u>Experiment A:</u>

-- Pour 1 ounce of water into a narrow dish, with a small surface area.
-- Set the dish in the second section of the box ... the one the air passes through
just before it leaves the box.
-- Start the fan.
-- Count the amount of time it takes for the 1 ounce of water to completely evaporate.
=============================
-- Pour 1 ounce of water into a wide dish, with a large surface area.
-- Set the dish in the second section of the box ... the one the air passes through
just before it leaves the box.
-- Start the fan.
-- Count the amount of time it takes for the 1 ounce of water to completely evaporate.
=============================
<span><em>Show that the 1 ounce of water evaporated faster </em>
<em>when it had more surface area.</em></span>
============================================
============================================

<u>Experiment B:</u>

-- Again, pour 1 ounce of water into the wide dish with the large surface area.
-- Again, set the dish in the second half of the box ... the one the air passes
through just before it leaves the box.
-- This time, place another wide dish full of water in the <em>first section </em>of the box,
so that the air has to pass over it before it gets through the wall to the wide dish
in the second section.  Now, the air that's evaporating water from the dish in the
second section already has vapor in it before it does the job.
-- Start the fan.
-- Count the amount of time it takes for the 1 ounce of water to completely evaporate.
==========================================
<em>Show that it took longer to evaporate when the air </em>
<em>blowing over it was already loaded with vapor.</em>
==========================================

HELP. A river flows South with a speed of 8m/s. From the shore, you see a boat moving South with a speed of 10 m/s. From their f
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

18 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of river is 8 m/s due South

From the shore, you see a boat moving South with a speed of 10 m/s. Both boat and river are moving in same direction. The resultant velocity will add up.

v = 10 m/s + 8 m/s

v = 18 m/s

Hence, the rowers are moving with a speed of 18 m/s.
