Answer : 1. "Velocity"
Explanation :

Answer: A) Velocity Explanation: When traveling in a vacuum, electronic waves from the electromagnetic spectrum all travel at the same speed. Velocity is speed with direction, so they would all travel at the same velocity, realtively speaking. But frequency and wavelength are quite different.

Answer : 2. "Mass"
Explanation :

Answer: B) Mass Explanation: Mass means the amount of matter in an object. Anything that has Mass and takes up Space is called Matter.   The Study of Matter and and how matter changes is called Chemistry.   Matter has some mass and occupies some space. Space occupied by an object is called its Volume.

Answer : 4. "50 sec"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 50 sec Explanation: The distance to be covered = Sum of their lengths = 200 + 300 = 500 m. Relative speed = 72 -36 = 36 kmph = 36 x 5/18 = 10 mps. Time required = d/s = 500/10 = 50 sec.

Answer : 4. "All the above"
Explanation :

Answer: D) All the above Explanation: Processes that require or give off heat will be limited to changes of state, known as phase changes, and changes in chemical constitution, or chemical reactions. Changes of state involve a solid melting, a liquid freezing, a liquid boiling or a gas condensing.   An exothermic process is one that gives off heat, which is transferred to the surroundings. An endothermic process is a reaction which heat has to be supplied to the system from the surroundings.   Here in all the given options, heat is taken away from them to change there phase.  Liquid to Solid --- Freezing Gas to Liquid --- Condensation Gas to Solid --- Deposition  are all examples of exothermic processes.
