<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>A mechanical wave transfers energy through matter</em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • A<em><u> wave is a transmission of a disturbance </u></em>from one point to another. Wave<u><em> involves transmission of energy from one point to another through a materials medium.</em></u>
  • Waves may require or may nor require a material medium for transmission. Those wave that do not require material medium for transmission are electromagnetic waves while <em><u>those that require material medium are called mechanical waves.</u></em>
  • <u><em>Mechanical waves</em></u> such as sound wave transfers energy from one point which is the wave source to another point through a material medium.

Are there conditions under which the incident light ray undergoes reflection but not transmission at the boundary? if so, then w
Luden [163]

Total internal reflection causes light to be completely reflected across the  boundary between the two media but not transmitted.

<h3>What is total internal reflection?</h3>

The term total internal reflection occurs when light is moving from a denser to a less dense medium such as from glass to air. This phenomenon occurs at the interface between the two media.

There are two conditions necessary for total internal reflection and they are;

1) Light must travel from a denser to a less dense medium

2) The angle of incidence in the denser medium must be greater than the critical angle.

Total internal reflection causes light to be completely reflected across the  boundary between the two media but not transmitted.

If the tension in the rope is 160 n, how much work does the rope do on the skier during a forward displacement of 270 m?
Lunna [17]

If the tension in the rope is 160 n, - 43200 J work doen by the rope on the skier during a forward displacement of 270 m.

Given,

Tension force in the rope is (T) = 160 N

Displacement of the skier (S) = 270 m

The displacement takes place in forward direction while the direction of the tension in the rope is opposite to it.

Therefore, work done by the rope on  the skier is,

   W=T.S

⇒W=270*160*cos\pi \\W=-43200 J

Hence work done by the rope is - 43200 J.

A force of 100 newtons is used to move an object a distance of 15 meters with a power of 25 watts. Find the
valentina_108 [34]


work is distance * force so 15*100=1500

and to find time you know power = diastance * force / time

so 25=15*100/t

25=1500/t

25/1500=t

.016=time
