Which wave property has the same value for all X-rays travelling in air? A amplitude
B frequency
C speed
D wavelength
Which statement is correct?
A Gamma rays have a longer wavelength than ultra-violet waves.
B Infra-red waves have a lower frequency than radio waves
.C Microwaves have a longer wavelength than visible light.
D X-rays have a higher speed in air than visible light.

A star explodes in outer space. Which waves from the exploding star do not reach theEarth?
A infra-red
B light
C radio
D sound

1. C speed

2. C Microwaves have a longer wavelength than visible light.

3. D sound

Explanation:

1. An X-ray is an electromagnetic wave. And these are waves that moves with the same speed in air. Thus all X-rays should travel with the same speed in air.

2. For electromagnetic waves, as the wavelength increases across the spectrum; the frequency of the wave decreases. Thus the correct statement is; microwaves have a longer wavelength than visible light.

3. Since electromagnetic waves moves with the same velocity (i.e the speed of light), then sound waves would not reach the earth. The correct option is D.

0.11 m/s and 0.28 m/s should be correct
