The speed of light is the speed all waves travel ?
No, only the speed of all electromagnetic waves.
It's different for ocean waves, rope waves, sound waves,
guitar-string waves, slinky waves, etc.

The speed of light is the speed electromagnetic waves travel ?
Yes.  Light is one of the electromagnetic waves.

The speed of light is 3.0 x 108 m/s in space ?
Yes.  That's a good approximation, and a nice easy number
to remember. 
It's only about 0.07% faster than the real number:  2.99792458 x 10⁸ m/s .

The speed of light is the same in all matter ?
No.  It's different in every substance, and the speed in any
substance is less than the speed in space (vacuum).

The speed of higher frequency light slows down
more than
lower frequency light in matter ?
Yes, slightly.  That's why the colors spread out on the way
through a prism to make a spectrum, or on the way through
raindrops to make a rainbow.

A small sculpture made of brass (rho brass = 8470 kg/m 3 ) is believed to have a secret central cavity. The weight of the sculpt
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Volume of secret cavity = 4 x 10⁻⁶m³

Explanation:

The weight of the sculpture in air is 15.76 N

Mass of the sculpture = 1.61 kg

Mass = Volume x Density

1.61 = V x 8470

Volume of brass =1.90 x 10⁻⁴ m³

When it is submerged in water, the weight is 13.86 N.

That is

  Weight of sculpture - Weight of water displaced = 13.86 N

  15.76 - Weight of water displaced = 13.86

   Weight of water displaced = 1.9 N

   Mass of water displaced = 0.194 kg

 Mass = Volume x Density

  0.194 = V x 1000

  Volume of water displaced =1.94 x 10⁻⁴ m³

Volume of secret cavity =  Volume of water displaced - Volume of brass material

Volume of secret cavity = 1.94 x 10⁻⁴-1.94 x 10⁻⁴ = 0.04x 10⁻⁴ = 4 x 10⁻⁶m³

Question 26 suppose that a constant force is applied to an object. newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of
ololo11 [35]

<span>The answer is 6 kg the mass of the second object. By using Inversely proportional formula it means that (14 kg) (3 m/s</span>²<span>) = M (7 m/s</span>²<span>). Where M is the mass of the second object. For the Newton’s second law of motion formula which is: Force = mass x acceleration, we have:</span>

<span>F = (14 kg) (3 m/s</span>²<span>) = 42 N</span>

 

Therefore:

<span>42 N = M (7 m/s</span>²)

<span>M = (42 N) / (7 m/s</span>²<span>)</span>

M = 6 kg mass of the second object
