As we know that energy of electromagnetic wave is given by

$E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}$

so here we know that penetrating power will directly depends on its energy and energy inversely depends on wavelength

So here we can say correct answer will be

C) The penetrating power decreases as the wavelength increases.

Speed of sound is maximum in solids and minimum in gas

so here as ice melts into water the speed of sound must have to decrease

so correct answer will be

D) The speed of sound would decrease because sound travels faster through solids than liquids.

mechanical waves required medium to travel while non mechanical waves do not require any medium to travel

so here correct answer will be

A) sound

Answer:

B. Geosphere

A. Biosphere

A. Atmosphere

Explanation:

Volcanic eruptions occurs within the Geosphere. The geosphere is the rock solid earth make up of rocks that extends into the deep interior.

Magma formed deep within the crust rises to elevated parts and finally erupts as lava on the surface. When they cool, they solidify to form volcanic rocks.

The volcanic eruptions affects the biosphere significantly. The biosphere is the portion of the earth where all life forms exists.

Gases and ash spewed during an eruption into the atmosphere causes severe changes to weather and leads to pollution. The atmosphere is the gaseous envelope round the earth.

two resistors of resistance 6 ohm and 3 ohm are connected in series and then in parallel .calculate the equivalent series resist

Novosadov [1.4K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Two resistors of resistance 6 ohm and 3 ohm are connected in series and then in parallel.

For series combination,

$R_{eq}=R_1+R_2$

For parallel combination,

$\dfrac{1}{R_{eq}}=\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}$

When 6 ohm and 3 ohm are in series,

$R_s=6+3\\\\R_s=9\ \Omega$

When 6 ohm and 3 ohm are in paralle,

$\dfrac{1}{R_p}=\dfrac{1}{6}+\dfrac{1}{3}\\\\R_p=2\ \Omega$

So, the equivalent resistance in series combination is 9 ohms and in parallel combination it is 2 ohms.

If two bicycles of same masses move at different velocities,it will be easier to stop the bicycle that is moving at lower veloci

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

It is easier to stop the bicycle moving at a lower velocity because it will require a smaller force to stop it when compared to a bicycle with a higher velocity that needs a bigger force.

Explanation:

The question above is related to "Newton's Law of Motion." According to the Third Law of Motion, whenever an object exerts a force on another object (action force), an equal force is exerted against it. This force is of the same magnitude but opposite direction.

When it comes to moving bicycles, the force that stops their movement is called "friction." Applying the law of motion, the higher the speed, the higher the force that is needed to stop it while the lower the speed, the lower the force that is needed to stop it.
