- Question
Visible light has a higher frequency than
Options- A. Radio waves
- B. X rays
- C. Ultra violet
- D. All the above
- Correct Answer
- Radio waves
ExplanationRadio waves have much longer wavelengths and lower frequencies than do visible light waves. In contrast, X-rays have much shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies.
Ultraviolet Light (UV). part of the electromagnetic spectrum that consists of waves with frequencies higher than those of visible light and lower than those of x-rays.

Correct Answer: Vacuum
Explanation:
A Sound wave needs a medium for propogation. Hence, Sound cannot travel through a vacuum.
A vacuum is an area without any air, like space. So sound cannot travel through space because there is no matter for the vibrations to work in.
Correct Answer: Specific Heat formula
Explanation:
Q = mc?T refers to Specific Heat formula.
When heat energy is added to a substance, the temperature will change by a certain amount.
The relationship between heat energy and temperature is different for every material, and the specific heat is a value that describes how they relate.
Q = mc?T
Q = heat energy (Joules, J)
m = mass of a substance (kg)
c = specific heat (units J/kg?K)
?T = change in temperature (Kelvins, K)
Correct Answer: < 85 db
Explanation:
Sound intensity or level is measured by a unit called a decibel. An 85 decibel noise level is not a safe standard for the public.
Hence, Acceptable noise level for human ear is less than 85 db.
Correct Answer: Air
Explanation:
Light travels fastest in Vacuum. The fastest thing in the whole universe is the speed of light in a vacuum like outer space. It is about 2.99 x 108 m/s.
Correct Answer: 8
Explanation:
The easiest way would measure it through half a liter water bottle. There are approximately 16.9 ounces(oz) of water in a 500ml water bottle.
Gallon is an imperial customary volume unit for the U.S.
As we have previously mentioned, the 16.9oz bottle is also known as 500ml in the metric system. According to U.S. standard, 1 gallon stands for 128 fluid oz.
Hence, Number of bottles in 1 gallon = 128/16.9 = 7.57 =~ 8.
Correct Answer: Specific heat
Explanation:
The usual cause of sea breeze is the difference in specific heat capacity between land and water Land heats and cools more quickly than water.
What is the cause of a sea breeze?
The air over the land is warmed and rises, to a greater temperature than that over the sea. This produces a convection current, with cooler air flowing in from over the sea to replace that rising from the land. At night the land cools more than the sea, so the action reverses to produce a land-breeze, blowing off the land.
Correct Answer: Convex
Explanation:
Convex mirror is used as rear view mirror in vehicles. Because the image is smaller, more image can fit onto the mirror, so a convex mirror provides for a larger field of view than a plane mirror. This is why they are useful.
Correct Answer: Temperature
Explanation:
The land breeze is a coastal breeze at night blowing from the land to the ocean. It is caused by the difference in the rates of cooling of the land and of the ocean. Once again, the bigger the difference in temperature between the two, the stronger the wind.
Correct Answer: iron
Explanation:
A magnetic domain is a region within a magnetic material in which the magnetization is in a uniform direction. This means that the individual magnetic moments of the atoms are aligned with one another and they point in the same direction.
Correct Answer: tin and silver
Explanation:
Tin and Silver are malleable and good conductors of electricity. The other combinations have a non metal in them which are bad conductors.
