The correct answer to the question is : Light or any electromagnetic wave.

EXPLANATION :

Before going to answer this question, first we have to understand refraction.

Refraction is the optical phenomenon in which light ray will bend at the interface of the two media having different optical densities.

When light ray comes from optical rarer medium to optical denser medium, the ray will bend towards the normal. It is so because the velocity of light in rarer medium is more than velocity of light in denser medium.

When the light comes from optical denser medium to optical rarer medium, the light ray bends away from the normal. It is so because the velocity of light increases in the rarer medium.

As per the question, wave is moving from air to ocean, and its velocity slows down.

Hence, there is refraction. So, the wave must be light or any electromagnetic wave.

A 615.00 kg race car is uniformly traveling around a circular race track. It takes the race car 20.00 seconds to do one lap arou
koban [17]

Answer:

The value is  f  =  0.05 \ Hz

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The mass of the car is  m  =  615 \  kg

      The period of the circular motion is  T  =  20 \  s

      The radius  is r =  80 \  m/s

Generally the frequency of the circular motion is  

       f  =   \frac{1}{T }

=>    f  =   \frac{1}{ 20  }

=>    f  =  0.05 \ Hz

The African and South American continents are separating at a rate of about 3 cm per year, according to the ideas of plate tecto
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

166 666 666.7 years

Explanation:

We start the question by making the units uniform. We are told that the continents move at 3 cm/year = 0.03 m/year.

We are also told that the continents are now 5000 km = 5 000 000 m apart

So to calculate the time it took for them to be this far apart

t = distance/speed

t = 5 000 000 m/(0.03 m/year) = 166 666 666.7 years

Answer:

(1) Resonance

Explanation:

Resonance is the process whereby a system is set into vibration due to the vibration of a nearby system with larger amplitude. The frequency at which this vibration takes place is called the resonant frequency.

It is a phenomenon of amplification that occurs when the frequency of a periodically applied force is in harmonic proportion to the natural frequency of the system on which it acts.
