When a wave bounces off a barrier and changes direction that is called reflection. Refraction, however occurs when a wave changed mediums, so if a wave were to go from moving in air to moving in water, the wave would change a direction that is based upon the index of refraction of that given medium.

So, if the answer is classifying a medium as a "boundary" then yes, they both change direction, however, a physical boundary only causes a change in direction in reflection.

Answer:

To maintain enough time to prevent a collision, a system operating in air traffic where aircraft speed does not

fall below 100 km/h (most medium-sized UAVs and GA aircraft) will need to be able to detect obstacles which

subtend an arc-width of as small as 0.125 mra

In being served, a tennis ball is accelerated from rest to a speed of 42.1 m/s. The average power generated during the serve is
hoa [83]

Answer:

Force F = 69.35 N

Explanation:

given data

Ball Initial speed u = 0

Ball Final speed v = 42.1 m/s

average power generate = 2920 W

solution

Power generate is express as

P= \frac{W}{t}   ..............1

here W is work done and t is time

and work w = F × d

so

P= \frac{Fd}{t}  

and we know speed v = \frac{d}{t}  

so here

Power P = F × v

put here value and we get force

Force F = \frac{2920}{42.1}

Force F = 69.35 N

A 4.44 l container holds 15.4 g of oxygen at 22.55°c. what is the pressure?
padilas [110]
We will use the ideal gas equation:
PV = nRT, where n is moles and equal to mass / Mr
P = mRT/MrV
P = 15.4 x 8.314 x (22.55 + 273) / 32 x 4.44
P = 266.3 kPa
