Answer:

Light is a transverse wave.

Explanation:

Light is a transverse wave. Its particles vibrates or oscillates in the direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of wave.

Light wave also have both electric and magnetic field component. So, light waves are also called as electromagnetic wave. Another type of wave is longitudinal wave. In this type, the particles of wave are in the direction of propagation of wave.

Hence, the correct option is " light is a transverse wave ".

lakkis [162]

Answer:

Increase in kinetic energy of the gases

Explanation:

The direct sunlight will heat up the molecules making up the gases in the balloon.

Kinetic energy resulting from the heating of these particles will make them become randomized. They then begin to move more haphazardly colliding vigorously with themselves and the wall of balloon.

According to Charles's law "the volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature provided pressure remains constant" .

The sunlight heats the balloon and causes a rise in temperature. This will make the gas volume to increase and the balloon expands.
