A surface in which is flat or very soft to the touch and reduces splinters or anything sticking out, having an surface which does not have lumps, or indentations.
Explanation:
We have,
Length of a metal rod is 55 cm or 0.55 m
Change in length is 0.2 cm or 0.002 m
It is required to find the change in temperature of a metal rod. The coefficient of linear expansion is given by :

is the change in temperature

So, the change in temperature is 303.03 degrees Celsius.

Answer:
Inverted (displaced downwards)
Explanation:
The pulse becomes INVERTED upon reflecting off the boundary with the wall. That is, an upward-displaced pulse will reflect off the end and return with a downward displacement. This inversion behavior will always be observed when the end of the medium is fixed, like this wall in this instance. This INVERSION BEHAVIOR can also be observed when the medium is connected to another more heavy or more dense medium. And in this case, when the pulse reaches the end of the medium, a portion of the pulse will reflect off the end and return with an inverted displacement. The heavier medium acts like a fixed end to cause the pulse to be inverted.
Summary: a pulse reaching the end of a medium becomes inverted whenever it either:
i. reflects off a fixed end,
ii. is moving in a less dense medium and reflects off a more dense medium.
