What is the speed of light ms

the speed of light is 299,792,458 metres per second

Are tidal waves generated the same way as ocean waves

no, they are created by earthquakes.

What are examples of longitudinal waves

sound waves, seismic waves
sound waves

What is an example of frequency

Frequency can be found in sound, light, and line current. An example of frequency is, the frequency wave of light will determine what color the light is.

Why water make waves

Waves are created when wind moves across the surface of water. The size, speed and direction of the wave when it reaches the shore is determined by the speed of the wind, the amount of time the wind is blowing in the same direction, and distance over which the wind blows in a constant direction. Tsunami's are waves created by earthquakes. Boats can make waves too. You can make ripple waves in a puddle or lake by throwing a rock into the water. Tides are not the same as waves but can effect waves. Tides are created by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun.

What is frequency of ultraviolet light with wavelength 2.94x10-8m

The frequency is 10.20 petaHertz.

What would an image look like that shows polarized light waves

Polarized light waves

What type of seismic waves that arrive at the surface first

No waves except for surface waves actually go to the surface, but surface waves come last. The first waves to come are the P waves, then S waves, then surface waves

What determines the radiation that an electromagnetic wave emits

its wavelength

How do light waves affect a kaleidoscope

by farting

When was Waves II created

Waves II was created in 2003.

The order of colors observed in the visible light spectrum is determined by the

Colors are ordered by frequency, or equivalently, by wavelength.

Why wouldn't you be able to hear a sound in outer space

sound doesn't work a vacuum
