Answer: smaller
Ultraviolet radiation has broad range of wavelengths, higher
number means greater risk of exposure to UV rays that can be dangerous to skin
cells. Sunlight is the main source of electromagnetic radiation and it is
transmitted in different wavelengths known as electromagnetic spectrum. This spectrum
is divided into several regions in order of decreasing wavelength and increasing
energy and frequency. UV radiation has frequency and energy that is higher than purple
light or violet radiation and the wavelength of ultraviolet radiation
is smaller than violet radiation.

Answer: D. A wave with a shorter wavelength is always faster than one with a longer wavelength
Explanation: "Imagine two sets of waves that have the same speed. <u><em>If one set has a longer wavelength, it will have a lower frequency (more time between waves). If the other set has a shorter wavelength, it will have a higher frequency</em></u> (less time between waves). Light moves even faster AND has shorter wavelengths."
Why it's not C: "The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency (f). <em><u>As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease</u></em>. From these equations you may realize that as the frequency increases, the wavelength gets shorter. As the frequency decreases, the wavelength gets longer."
Why it's not B: "The frequency does not change as the sound wave moves from one medium to another. Since the speed changes and the frequency does not, the wavelength must change."
Why it's not A: "Do loud sounds travel faster than soft sounds? No. Both travel at the same speed The speed depends on the medium it passes through. Louder sounds are simply sound waves with higher amplitude traveling at the same speed."
The eight planets of the Solar System arranged in order from the sun:
Mercury: 46 million km / 29 million miles (.307 AU)
Venus: 107 million km / 66 million miles (.718 AU)
Earth: 147 million km / 91 million miles (.98 AU)
Mars: 205 million km / 127 million miles (1.38 AU)
Jupiter: 741 million km /460 million miles (4.95 AU)
Saturn: 1.35 billion km / 839 million miles (9.05 AU)
Uranus: 2.75 billion km / 1.71 billion miles (18.4 AU)
Neptune: 4.45 billion km / 2.77 billion miles (29.8 AU)
Astronomers often use a term called astronomical unit (AU) to represent the distance from the Earth to the Sun.
+ Pluto (Dwarf Planet): 4.44 billion km / 2.76 billion miles (29.7 AU)
Answer:
Displacement is 50 m
Explanation:
Distance is simply the measurement of the sum of all paths travelled.
Thus, since he swims the 50m length pool 3 times, then the total distance = 50 × 3 = 150 m
Whereas, displacement is the measurement of length of the shortest path from initial point to final point.
In this case initial point to final point is 50m. Thus, the displacement is 50 m
