Explanation

• The unit of pressure is N/m² (Newton per square meter).
• It is also called Pascal (Pa).
• Pressure means force applied per unit area.
• Higher force or smaller area increases pressure.

Explanation

• Blue light has the shortest wavelength.
• In the visible spectrum, wavelength decreases from red to violet.

Additional information:

• Red light rays have the lowest frequency and highest wavelength value.

Explanation

• Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred.
• Its SI unit is the watt (W).
• British thermal unit per hour (BTU/h), horsepower (hp), and watt are units of power.
• A newton-meter (N·m) is the unit of work or energy, equivalent to one joule (J).
• It is not a unit of power.

Explanation

• Frequency is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time.
• The SI unit of frequency is the hertz (Hz).
• 1 Hz = 1 cycle or vibration per second
• Unit: Hz = s⁻¹ (per second)
• Named after physicist Heinrich Hertz
• Used for waves, oscillations, sound, and electromagnetic radiation
• Derivations from other quantities: f = 1 / T
• Dimension T^−1

Explanation

• Wavelength is the distance between two successive corresponding points of a wave, such as two crests.
• It can be measured in meters (m), centimeters (cm), and nanometers (nm).
• The SI unit of wavelength is meter (m).
• Nanometer (nm) is commonly used for very short wavelengths, especially in light.

Conversions:

• 1 m = 100 cm
• 1 cm = 10⁻² m
• 1 nm = 10⁻⁹ m
