Which of the following statements is true regarding electromagnetic waves traveling through a vacuum?

Physics
1 answer:
kap26 [50]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C. All waves have the same speed.

Explanation:

Wave equation is given as;

V = fλ

where;

V is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency of the wave

λ is the wavelength

The speed of the wave depends on both wavelength and frequency

The speed of the electromagnetic waves in a vacuum is 3 x 10⁸ m/s, this also the speed of light which is constant for all electromagnetic waves.

Therefore, the correct option is "C"

C. All waves have the same speed.

Which index of refraction represents the most optically dense material?
faust18 [17]
The relation between the refractive index and the optical density of the material is a direct relation.
This means that the more the refractive index is, the more optically dense the material is.

Based on the above, when checking the given choices, the refractive index that represents the most optically dense material would be the largest refractive index which is:

Is the mass of an object measured with scale, yes or no​
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

The scale actually measures the force that the object does against it, and that force is called the weight.

Such that if we have an object with mass M and we are on Earth, where the gravitational acceleration is g, the weight is:

W = M*g

Now, there is a unit called "kilogram-force"

Such that on Earth, an object that has a mass of 10 kilograms, weighs 10 kilograms-force.

Then from the weight measure, we can instantly know the mass of the object, but the thing that is being measured is the weight, not the mass.

The Balmer series in hydrogen atom produces only infrared emission. O True O False
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

As we know that, the Balmer series gives the n values as,

n_{i}=2.

[tex]n_{f}=3,4,5,.....\infty.

Now the value of wavelength can be calculated as,

\frac{1}{\lambda}=R(\frac{1}{n_{i} }-\frac{1}{n_{f} } )z^{2}.

Here, R=109677 cm^{-1}.

And n_{f}=3.

Now,

\frac{1}{\lambda}=109677 cm^{-1}(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}).

Therefore,

\lambda=\frac{6}{109677} cm\\\lambda=547\times 10^{-9} m\\ \lambda=547 nm

Therefore, the wavelength of Balmer series lies in visible region which is 547 nm.

At a department store, you adjust the mirrors in the dressing room so that they are parallel and 6.2 ft apart. You stand 1.8 ft
barxatty [35]

Answer:

<em>a) 3.6 ft</em>

<em>b) 12.4 ft</em>

Explanation:

Distance between mirrors = 6.2 ft

difference from from the mirror you face = 1.8 ft

a) you stand 1.8 ft in front of the mirror you face.

According to plane mirror rules, the image formed is the same distance inside the mirror surface as the distance of the object (you) from the mirror surface. From this,

your distance from your first "front" image = 1.8 ft + 1.8 ft = <em>3.6 ft</em>

b) The mirror behind you is 6.2 - 1.8 = 4.4 ft behind you.

the back mirror will be reflected 3.6 + 4.4 = 8 ft into the front mirror,

the first image of your back will be 4.4 ft into the back mirror,

therefore your distance from your first "back" image = 8 + 4.4 = <em>12.4 ft</em>
