Answer:

Behaves as a wave.

Explanation:

The dual nature of light means that light behaves as a wave. If the light consisted of small particles, the alternating light and dark bands would not have occurred.

Sometimes it behaves like a particle (called a photon), which explains how light travels in straight lines.

If a train is travelling 200km/hour eastward for 1800 seconds how far does it travel?

Olenka [21]

Answer:

Distance, d = 99990 meters

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the train, v = 200 km/h = 55.55 m/s

Time taken, t = 1800 s

Let d is the distance covered by the train. We know that the speed of an object is given by total distance covered divided by total time taken. Mathematically, it is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$
