Physics

Our eyes perceive different wavelengths of light as the rainbow hues of colors. Red light has relatively long waves, around 700 nm long. Blue and purple light have short waves, around 400 nm. Shorter waves vibrate at higher frequencies and have higher energies.

Hope it helps.

Tourists covered 255 km for a 4-hour ride by car and a 7-hour ride by train. what is the speed of the train, if it is 5 km/h gre
LekaFEV [45]
The distance covered by car is equal to (assuming it is moving by uniform motion) the product between the car's speed and the time of the car ride, 4 h:
S_c = v_c t_c
where
v_c is the car's speed
t_c = 4 h is the duration of the car ride

Similarly, the distance covered by train is equal to the product between the train's speed and the duration of the train ride, 7 h:
S_t = v_t t_t

The total distance covered is S=255 km, which is the sum of the distances covered by car and train:
S=255 km = S_c + S_t
which becomes
255 = 4 v_c + 7 v_t (1)
we also know that the train speed is 5 km/h greater than the car's speed:
v_t = 5 + v_c (2)

If we put (2) into (1), we find
255 = 4v_c + 7(5+v_c)
and if we solve it, we find
v_c = 20 km/h
v_t = 25 km/h

So, the car speed is 20 km/h and the train speed is 25 km/h.
