All waves on the electromagnetic spectrum travel at the same speed in a vacuum. The speed of these waves in a vacuum is 3x10 8 m

/s. As the wavelength of a wave doubles, how does the speed and frequency of the wave change?

As you said, the speed is constant in a vacuum, so the speed does not change, The frequency, on the other hand, decreases by half. The wavelength, λ (lambda), the frequency, v, and the speed of light, c, are related by the equation λν = c. We can see that frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional, so an increase in wavelength has a corresponding decrease in frequency.

When a vertical beam of light passes through a transparent medium, the rate at which its intensity I decreases is proportional t
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Intensity of beam 18 feet below the surface is about 0.02%

Explanation:

Using Lambert's law

Let dI / dt = kI, where k is a proportionality constant, I is intensity of incident light and t is thickness of the medium

then dI / I = kdt

taking log,

ln(I) = kt + ln C

I = Ce^kt

t=0=>I=I(0)=>C=I(0)

I = I(0)e^kt

t=3 & I=0.25I(0)=>0.25=e^3k

k = ln(0.25)/3

k = -1.386/3

k = -0.4621

I = I(0)e^(-0.4621t)

I(18) = I(0)e^(-0.4621*18)

I(18) = 0.00024413I(0)

Intensity of beam 18 feet below the surface is about 0.2%

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The answer is option B, horn.

Explanation:

The landform horn was formed because when glaciers erode down to form a sharp peak which is called a horn. All of the other options are false because none of those land forms are formed because of the erosion of glaciers

A spectroscope:
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

Option A

Measures light from distant objects

Explanation:

A spectroscope is used to measure the use of light from a distant object to work out the object is made of.

It could be the single-most powerful tool astronomers use.

Professor Fred Watson from the Australian Astronomical Observatory says that "It lets you see the chemicals being absorbed or emitted by the light source"
