Answer:

phase change is by 180 degree

Explanation:

When transverse wave reflects off by a surface of denser medium then its phase will change by 180

so here the phase is reversed when any transverse when get reflected by a denser medium

since water is denser than air so here the light will have phase reversal when it is reflected by a denser medium surface of water

so phase change is by 180 degree

Answer:

I am sorry I can't draw graphical ok how to draw the graph where what is your position the displacement of time and work 7 kilometres east in 2 hours and what will happen to the time and 72 in 1 hour what is the displacement you after take the displacement formula that is total time taken divided by the distance travelled ok displacement and distance travelled is different about its terms ok

The following force diagram represents Newton’s Third Law of Motion:

Julli [10]

Answer:

FALSE.

Explanation:

Newton's third law states that :

Every action has equal and opposite reaction
That is , the magnitude is the same but the directions are opposite
The action reaction forces DONOT operate on the same body.

For example ,

If a block is kept on the ground , the action force is the normal force acting on it due to the ground. BUT , NOTE THAT : the reaction force isn't the gravitational force on the body ! It is the normal force acting on the ground due to the block !

Thus,

we conclude that action and reaction forces donot act on the same body and therefore , this case has the answer : FALSE

You throw a tennis ball straight up (neglect air resistance). It takes 7.0 seconds to go up and then return to your hand. How fa

sattari [20]

Answer:

Velocity of throwing = 34.335 m/s

Explanation:

Time taken by the tennis ball to reach maximum height, t = 0.5 x 7 = 3.5 seconds.

Let the initial velocity be u, we have acceleration due to gravity, a = -9.81 m/s² and final velocity = 0 m/s

Equation of motion result we have v = u + at

Substituting

0 = u - 9.81 x 3.5

u = 34.335 m/s

Velocity of throwing = 34.335 m/s
