Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Distance is described with only magnitude. It is defined as the total path covered by an object, in other words it  is the length of a path followed by a particle.

Displacement is described with both magnitude and direction. It is distance traveled in a specified direction or  change in position in some time interval.

Therefore, the correct option is " a. True"

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

D. 4000 km

Explanation:

f = Frequency of wave that is being transmitted = 76 Hz

\lambda = Wavelength of wave that is being transmitted

v = The velocity of electromagnetic waves through air = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

Velocity of a wave is given by

v=f\lambda\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{3\times 10^8}{76}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=3947368.42105\ m=3947.36842105 km\approx 4000\ km

Hence, the approximate wavelength of the waves is 4000 km
