Statement-1: As light travels from one medium to another, thhe frequency of light doesn't change. Statement-2: Frequency is the characteristic of source.

Assertion: The Microwave propagation is better than the sky wave propagation. Reason: Microwaves have frequency 100 to 3001 GHz, which have very good directional properties.

In visible spectrum which colour has maximum energy ? Static its wavelength and frequency .

Assertion :- A particle has positive acceleration it means that its speed always increases. Reason :- Acceleration is the rate of change of speed with respect to time.

Assertion: The electromagnetic waves of shorter wavelength can travel longer distances on earth's surface thane those of longer of longer wavelengths. Reason: Shorter the wavelength, the larger is the velocity of wave propagation. Also, shorter the wavelength, shorter is the velocity of wave propagation.

In visible spectrum which colour has minimum energy ?State ite wavelength and frequency.

Assertion: In projectile motion, the acceleration is constant in both magnitude and direction but the velocity changes in both magnitude and direction. Reason: When a force or accelration is acting in an oblique direction to the direction of velocity then both magnitude and direction of the velocity may be changed.

Assertion : When water flow from wider tube to narrow tube ,its velocity increases. Reason : According to equation of continuity multiplication of area and velocity remain constant.
