The correct answer is:
Work is negative, the environment did work on the object, and the energy of the system decreases.
In fact, the work-energy theorem states that the work done by the system is equal to its variation of kinetic energy:

In this problem, the variation of kinetic energy
is negative (because the final velocity is less than the initial velocity), so the work is negative, and this means that the environment did work on the object, and its energy decreased.
Rainbows are caused by the dispersion of light, which itself consists of a combination of refraction and reflection of light around little droplets of water.
Choice C
The answer is NOT covalent , it is Hydrogen .
Answer:
The transverse wave will travel with a speed of 25.5 m/s along the cable.
Explanation:
let T = 2.96×10^4 N be the tension in in the steel cable, ρ = 7860 kg/m^3 is the density of the steel and A = 4.49×10^-3 m^2 be the cross-sectional area of the cable.
then, if V is the volume of the cable:
ρ = m/V
m = ρ×V
but V = A×L , where L is the length of the cable.
m = ρ×(A×L)
m/L = ρ×A
then the speed of the wave in the cable is given by:
v = √(T×L/m)
= √(T/A×ρ)
= √[2.96×10^4/(4.49×10^-3×7860)]
= 25.5 m/s
Therefore, the transverse wave will travel with a speed of 25.5 m/s along the cable.
