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 .
