As it was explained in the Introductory Article on the Electromagnetic Spectrum, electromagnetic radiation can be described as a stream of photons, each traveling in a wave-like pattern, carrying energy and moving at the speed of light. In that section, it was pointed out that the only difference between radio waves, visible light and gamma rays is the energy of the photons. Radio waves have photons with the lowest energies. Microwaves have a little more energy than radio waves. Infrared has still more, followed by visible, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays.

That should be able to help answer your question :)

Stells [14]

Answer:

The comparisons are;

The height of the bromine in the 50 ml beaker will be twice that of the 100 ml beaker

The measurement of the volume with the 50 ml beaker will be more accurate than the measurement taken with the 100 ml beaker, because the differences in the height of the bromine in the 50 ml beaker is more obvious than the differences measured with the 100 ml beaker.

The actual volume of bromine in both beakers will be equivalent

Explanation:

The properties of a liquid are;

1) The volume of a liquid is relatively fixed at conditions that are suitable for it to remain in the liquid state compared to the volume occupied by a gas

2) A liquid will assume the shape of a container in which it is placed

3) The surface of a liquid in a container is flat due in order that the attractive forces between the molecules of the liquid at the surface and inside the body of the liquid should be in equilibrium

Therefore, given that the volume of the Bromine is measured in 50 ml beaker and a 100 ml beaker, there will be differences in the measured height of the same volume of bromine in each beaker.

How will a wave change as it moves from a layer of higher velocity into a lower layer of lower velocity?

denis-greek [22]

Explanation:

Wave is defined as a disturbance or oscillation that travels through space-time, accompanied by a transfer of energy. Wave motion transfers energy from one point to another, often with no permanent displacement of the particles of the medium.

The velocity of wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second). Longitudinal waves like sound waves travel through a medium.

Therefore, a wave move from a layer of high velocity to that of a lower velocity the wavelength changes (that is, decreases) as it moves.
