Answer:
Light passes through the gas
Light passes through the pure water
Light passes through some solids
Explanation:
In gasses, there are many spaces between the molecules. These spaces allow light to pass through them without any interruption.
In pure water, there are some spaces between particles. these particles allow some light rays to pass theough, some to move through the common boundary and reflec5 some of them.
in solids, some allow light to pass through as they are transparent or translucent
For a standing wave on a string, the wavelength is equal to twice the length of the string:

In our problem, L=50.0 cm=0.50 m, therefore the wavelength of the wave is

And the speed of the wave is given by the product between the frequency and the wavelength of the wave:

It is due to a refractment of light.</h2>
Sound moves faster in warmer air than colder air the way bends away from the warm air and back towards of air.
Do you have a picture of the diagram that I could view?
It doesn't matter. If the slides are truly frictionless, then
your kinetic energy at the bottom will be equal to the
potential energy you had at the top, no matter what kind
of route you took getting down.

The only way I can think of that it would make a difference
would be if the shallow slide were REALLY REALLY long,
and you didn't have anything to eat all the way down.
Then you might lose some weight while you're on the slide,
and your mass might be less at the bottom than it was at the
top. Then, in order to have the same kinetic energy at the
bottom, you'd need to be going a little bit faster.
But if it takes less than, say, two or three days, to go down the
long, shallow slide, then this effect would probably be too small
to make any difference.
