Answer :Waves change direction when encountering boundaries in both reflection and refraction.

Explanation:

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.

How can i prove the conservation of mechanical energy?​
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

We can also prove the conservation of mechanical energy of a freely falling body by the work-energy theorem, which states that change in kinetic energy of a body is equal to work done on it. i.e. W=ΔK. And ΔE=ΔK+ΔU. Hence the mechanical energy of the body is conserved

A stone that is thrown vertically upwards was having a velocity of 15m/s after reaches 2/3 of its maximum height. What is the ma
attashe74 [19]

<em>The correct answer is option</em><em> B.</em> The maximum height that can be reached by the stone is determined as 11.5 m.

<h3>Maximum height attained by the stone </h3>

The maximum height attained by the stone when it is a 2/3 of its total height is calculated as follows;

v² = u² - 2gh

where;

  • v is final velocity at maximum height, v = 0
  • u is initial velocity
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

0 =  u² - 2gh

2gh =  u²

h =  u²/2g

h = (15²)/(2 x 9.8)

h = 11.48 m

h = 11.5 m

Thus, the maximum height that can be reached by the stone is determined as 11.5 m

At the surface, atmospheric pressure is 1.013 × 10^5 Pa. People can normally snorkel down to a depth of roughly one meter. What
natulia [17]

Answer:

1.01 × 10⁵ Pa  

Explanation:

At the surface, atmospheric pressure is 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa.

We need to find the total pressure on the air in the lungs of a person to a depth of 1 meter.

Pressure at a depth is given by :

P=\rho gh

Where

\rho is the density of air, \rho=1.225\ kg/m^3

So,

P=1.225\times 9.8\times 1\\\\=12\ Pa

Total pressure, P = Atmospheric pressure + 12 Pa

= 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa + 12 Pa

= 1.01 × 10⁵ Pa

Hence, the total pressure is 1.01 × 10⁵ Pa.
