Answer:

B. It decreases proportionally to the wavelength

Explanation:

The relationship between wavelength, velocity, and frequency of a wave is given as;

$f = \frac{v}{\lambda}$

where;

f is the frequency of the wave

v is the velocity of the wave

λ is the wavelength

From the equation above, the frequency of a wave is inversely proportional to its wavelength. As the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases and vice versa.

Therefore, the correct option is "B"

B. It decreases proportionally to the wavelength

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns your toes.

II) When you get into a car with hot black leather in the middle of the summer and your skin starts to get burned.

Explanation:

In conduction mode of heat transfer we know that the energy is transferred from one system to other system due to direct contact of two bodies

Here due to this direct contact the energy is transferred via a given solid or liquid medium

In this type of heat transfer medium particles will remain in its own position only the energy is transferred.

So here we can say the correct answer will be

I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns your toes.

II) When you get into a car with hot black leather in the middle of the summer and your skin starts to get burned.

ExtremeBDS [4]

$Formula\ for\ density:\\\\
p=\frac{m}{V}\\p-density,\\m-mass,\\V-volume\\\\
Data:\\
m=50,4grams\\
V=57,9cm^3\\\\
p=\frac{50,4g}{57,9cm^3}=0,87\frac{g}{cm^3}\\\\Density\ of\ paraffin\ is\ equal\ to\ 0,87\frac{g}{cm^3}.
