A.The Frequency decreases by a factor of 2.

Answer : The frequency decreases by a factor of 2.

Explanation :

Given that the wave travels at a constant speed. The speed of the wave is given as :

v=\nu\times \lambda

Where

υ is the frequency of the wave

and λ is the wavelength of the wave.

In this case, the speed is constant. So, the relation between the frequency and the wavelength is inverse.

\nu\propto \dfrac{1}{\lambda}

If the wavelength increases by a factor of 2, its frequency will decrease by a factor of 2.

Hence, the correct option is (A) " The frequency decreases by a factor of 2 ".

Porque deja de funcionar una estufa electrica cuando la electricidad es excesiva??

<h3>Porque deja de funcionar una estufa electrica cuando la electricidad es excesiva?</h3>

  • Es normal que los quemadores superiores de una estufa eléctrica o una estufa se enciendan y apaguen en configuraciones distintas a Hi. El quemador se encenderá y apagará más de lo normal cuando se utilizan cacerolas que no son planas o que son del tamaño incorrecto para el quemador.

The wavelength of a light wave is 700 nm in air; this light appears red. If this wave enters a pool of water, its wavelength bec
hodyreva [135]

Answer

given,

wavelength of light in air = 700 nm

Wavelength of light in water = 530 nm

We know that speed of light changes when it moves from one medium to another.

And the frequency of the wavelength does not changes if the medium changes.

we also know that,

                                    v = ν λ

From the above equation we can say that if frequency is constant so, with the change in  velocity changes wavelength will also change.

Hence, wavelength is the property of the wave which determines color.

A box is sliding down a ramp how many force vectors does the box have
vlada-n [284]
Well you’d have a force due to gravity, the normal force which will be perpendicular to the sources (meaning you’ll have components to this vector), and you’d have the force of friction opposing the motion of the box. I’m also assuming there’s no air resistance. In this case you’d have three vector forces.
