Answer: (C)
The frequency increases as the wavelength decreases
Explanation:
The relation between the frequency and wavelength of a wave is
Frequency = 1 / Wavelength
The Frequency of electromagnetic wave is inversely proportional to the wavelength. So, as the frequency increases, the wavelength of the wave decreases and vise-versa.
The frequency of a wave is number of complete cycles passing a particular point per second. Its S.I unit is Hertz whereas the wavelength of a wave is the distance between two consecutive crest and trough in meters.
So, on increasing the frequency of a wave, there will be more number of the cycles of wave per second which will decrease the distance between the consecutive crest and trough i.e wavelength.
The latent heat is correlated with energy as follows:
Q = mL
550 * 103 = 14 * 103 * L
L = 39.285 J /g
Thus, latent heat of the substance is 39.285 j /g
