Wave reflection occurs when waves reflect or rebound off of a surface. This is like an echo because the sound waves are reflected from a distant surface

Answer:

- at boundaries between two different media

Explanation:

Reflection is one phenomenon that occurs with waves. Reflection can occur when a wave meets the boundary between two different media: when this happens, the wave bounces back into the first media, but changing direction.

In fact, there is a precise relationship between the original direction of the wave and its final direction: calling "angle of incidence" the angle between the original direction and the normal to the surface, and "angle of reflection" the angle between the final direction and the normal to the surface, we have that

angle of reflection = angle of incidence

and this is called "law of reflection".

A net force of -1,000 Newtons is delivered to the object over a time of .02 seconds. Calculate the new velocity of the object.

MariettaO [177]

The change in velocity (v₂ - v₁) is

<em> (-20) / (the object's mass)</em>.

Call it a crazy hunch, but I can't shake the feeling that there was more
to the question before the part you copied, that mentioned the object's
mass, and its velocity before this force came along.

A steel ball bearing is released from a height H and

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

ELASTIC collision

kinetic energy is conservate

Explanation:

As the ball bounces to the same height, it can be stated that the impact with the floor is ELASTIC.

As the floor does not move the conservation of the moment

po = pf

-mv1 = m v2

- v1 = v2

So the speed with which it descends is equal to the speed with which it rises

Therefore the kinetic energy of the ball before and after the collision is the same

What kind of light results when the total spectrum of refracted light is recombined? violet green white red?

ElenaW [278]

Hello
The final light will be white. In fact, each color of the visible spectrum is an electromagnetic wave with its own specific frequency and wavelength. White, instead, does not have a specific frequency: it is the sum of all the different wavelengths of the visible spectrum. Therefore, when recombining the spectrum of the refracted light all the different frequencies recombine together, and their sum gives white light.
