All waves on the electromagnetic spectrum travel at the same speed in a vacuum.The speed of these waves in a vacuum is 3x108 m/s

.As the wavelength of wave doubles,how does the speed and frequency of the wave change

The wavelength (λ), speed (c) and the frequency (ν) of a wave are related as:

ν = c/λ  -----(1)

The speed of the waves is a constant in vacuum i.e. it remains at 3*10⁸ m/s. therefore, it will not change with changes in wavelength or frequency.

Let us consider:

ν1 = initial frequency and λ1 = initial wavelength

ν2 = final frequency and λ2 = final wavelength = 2(λ1)

based on equation (1) we have:

ν1/ν2 = λ2/λ1 = 2(λ1)/λ1 = 2

therefore: ν2 = 1/2(ν1)

The frequency will get reduced by one-half as the wavelength doubles.

zepelin [54]

The frequency of a wave represents B. the number of wave cycles that pass through a specific point within a given time.

The distance between two consecutive crests and the length of a wave are the <em>wavelength</em>.

The distance between the highest and lowest points of a wave is <em>twice the amplitude</em>.

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Le Chatelier's principle can be applied in explaining the results

Explanation:

According to Le Chatelier's principle, when a constraint such as a change in concentration in this case is imposed on a chemical system in equilibrium, the system will adjust itself in such a way as to annul the constraint imposed.

Hence, when the color of the solution was more like that of the control, the reaction would shift towards the left. Similarly, when the color was more like it was towards the reactant, the reaction would shift towards the right.

If we were to prepare calcium oxalate, we should prepare it in a base solution. This is because when the base was added to calcium oxalate, it did not form any precipitate but when an acid was added to the calcium oxalate, it formed a precipitate.
