A mechanical wave such as sound needs a medium to travel through. This is why they say that in space, no one can hear you scream (because space is a vacuum and no medium exists). On the contrary, light can exist in wave or particle form. This is why we have the ability to see beyond the realms of the Earth.

Answer:

The answer is A. Must travel trought a medium.

Explanation:

The transmission of sound depends on the existence of a material medium (solid, liquid, air particles) where the vibration of the molecules are perceived as a sound wave, which are converted into mechanical waves in the human ear, to be later perceived by the brain.

Answer the following question

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

A) OA, AB, BC

B) 25m/s^2

C) see explanation

D) 25

E) Rest

Explanation:

From the Velocity time graph shown:

The positive slope = OA ; This is positive because, it is the point of uniform acceleration on the graph.

Constant slope = AB, the slope here is constant because, AB on the graph is the point of constant velocity.

-ve slope = BC

B) Acceleration of body in path OA.

Acceleration = change in Velocity / time

Acceleration = (150 - 0) / 6

Acceleration = 150/6 = 25m/s^2

C) Path AB is Parallel to the because it marks the period of constant velocity (that is Velocity does not increase or decrease during the time interval).

D) Length of BC

BC corresponds to the distance moved, that velocity / time

Velocity = 150 ; time = 6

Therefore Distance (BC) = 150/6 = 25

E.) Velocity =0 ; Hence body is at rest
