Answer:
The scientist will be looking for the velocity of the wave in air which is equivalent to 10^7m/s
Explanation:
If an object in space is giving off a frequency of 10^13Hz and wavelength of 10^-6m then the scientist will be looking for the velocity of the object in air.
The relationship between the frequency (f) of a wave, the wavelength (¶) and the velocity of the wave in air(v) is expressed as;
v = f¶
Given f = 10^13Hz and ¶ = 10^-6m,
v = 10¹³ × 10^-6
v = 10^7 m/s
The value of the velocity of the object in space that the scientist will be looking for is 10^7m/s
