<span>The answer is 15 centimeters. The waves with the smallest wavelengths (also highest frequency) have the least capacity to diffract around objects hence have a shadowing effect, behind the object, especially if the wavelength is small compared to the object. This is also the reason why high-frequency electromagnetic waves do not have a good reach in mountainous regions. </span>

The correct choice is

15 centimeters

The diffraction of the sound waves takes place when the wavelength of sound wave is comparable with the size of the object. Waves of wavelengths 1 meter, 5 meter, and 12.5 meters are comparable to the size of the doorway while the wavelength 15 centimeters is very small compared to the size of the doorway. hence the waves of wavelength 15 cm diffracts the least.

Which health related fitness component is tested in the curl-up test
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Curl up test.

Explanation:

The curl up test is done to check the strength of the abdomen muscles and the stability of the core muscles. The strength of the core muscles determines the stability of the body.

The curl up test is done to test the abdomen strength and endurance and the strength of the back muscles.

The test requires the following materials: A flat cushioned surface(clean) and a measuring strip

  • The measuring strip is placed on the mat under the students legs so that their fingertips are just resting on the nearest edge of the measuring strip. The feet cannot be held or rest against an object. Keeping heels in contact with the mat, the student curls up slowly, sliding their fingers across the measuring strip until the fingertips reach the other side, then curls back down until their head touches the mat. There should be 20 curl-ups per minute
