True, laser beams have one specific wavelength and typically travel in one direction due to the collimated nature of the light. This makes them ideal for applications like cutting, engraving, and communication.
False. In a vacuum, both red laser beams and microwaves travel at the speed of light, which is approximately 3 x 10^8 meters per second. Both types of waves travel at the same speed because they are both electromagnetic waves.
False. The frequency of a wave and its wavelength are inversely proportional - as the wavelength decreases, the frequency increases, and vice versa.
False. While many waves have a wavelength, frequency, rest position, and speed, not all waves exhibit all of these properties. For example, electromagnetic waves like light do not have a rest position since they can travel through a vacuum. Sound waves, on the other hand, do not have a specific speed as it can vary depending on the medium through which they travel.
False. The wavelength of light is inversely related to its frequency. Longer wavelengths have lower frequencies and vice versa.
False. An increase in frequency means a decrease in the wavelength and a decrease in frequency goes with an increase in the wavelength.

It is false.
True. Waves with a greater wavelength will have a longer distance between each wave crest compared to waves with a shorter wavelength.
False. The wavelength of light is inversely related to its frequency. Longer wavelengths have lower frequencies and vice versa.
False. An increase in frequency means a decrease in the wavelength and a decrease in frequency goes with an increase in the wavelength.
No, red is the longest wavelength of visible light, with the lowest frequency and the least energy. Violet light has the shortest wavelenght, with the highest frequency and the most energy (of visible light).
No, you should not.
True. When a wave reflects from a fixed boundary, it changes direction of travel as it rebounds back from the boundary. The wave may also be inverted depending on the type of boundary. Additionally, the wave can experience a phase shift upon reflection.
false
False. The wavelength of a wave is actually measured from crest to crest, or trough to trough, not from crest to trough.
