Question
Chapter 27, Problem 29A
To determine
The speed of microwave & ultra-violet through space will be same or not.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 29A
The speed will be same as it remain constant for all waves.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction : The speed is the product of wavelength & frequency.
The speed of all waves remain constant as the frequency & wavelength vary to produce same speed of all waves.
Conclusion:
The speed will be same as independent of wavelength .

You find a campground that is near an outcropping of ice. Part of the outcropping forms a feta=51.5* slopeup that leads to a verticle cliff. You decide that this is an idea place to hang your food supply out of bear reach. You put all of your food into a burlap sack, tie a rope to the sack, and then tie a bag full of rocks to the other end of the rope to act as an anchor. You currently have 18.5 kg of food left for the rest of your trip, so you put 18.5 kg of rocks in the anchor bag to balance it out. what happens when you lower the food bag over the edge and let go of the anchor bag?
