Answer:

367.57 nm

Explanation:

Given that the speed of the light in certain material is 0.6310 times the speed of light in vacuum.

Speed of light in vacuum = 3×10⁸ m/s

Speed of the light in that material = 0.6310×3×10⁸ m/s = 1.893×10⁸ m/s

The frequency of the light does not change but the wavelength of the light changes with change in the speed when light travels from one medium to another.

Thus, frequency = 5.15×10¹⁴ Hz

Using,

c = frequency × Wavelength

Wavelength = c / frequency = (1.893×10⁸ m/s) / (5.15×10¹⁴ Hz) = 367.57×10⁻⁹ m

Also,

1 nm = 10⁻⁹ m

<u>So, wavelength = 367.57 nm</u>

The rainforest is hot, humid, and has frequent rainfall. In what way do the atmosphere and the hydrosphere contribute to this ty
il63 [147K]

Answer:

The atmosphere which contains nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and other gases essential for life, contributes to the rainforest climate. The rainforest is hot, humid and helps balance the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by absorbing it and releasing more oxygen which is important for climate change.

The hydrosphere, which is the combination of various types of water sources and types found in air, in the form of water vapor; water found below the earth's surface and above, also contributes to the rainforest climate. The frequent rainfall dictates the vegetation growth in that area which also creates weather patterns due to the contribution of the atmosphere and the hydrosphere. The hydrosphere is important in the formation of rain. A  rainforest of frequent rainfall indicates a large amount of the combination of various types of water sources and types found in a particular area, which release the water back onto the rainforest.

aliya0001 [1]

<h2>The option ( b ) is appropriate answer </h2>

Explanation:

When a projectile is projected from height horizontally . The only force acting upon it is the downwards gravitational force of attraction due to earth .

Due to this force its vertical component of velocity , which is in the downward direction will be increased .

As there is no force horizontally , the horizontal  velocity of throw will remain constant .

Thus ( b ) option is the correct option .
