Answer:
Option A
Explanation:
Mechanical waves requires some medium to travel through. They travel faster in the dense medium as compared to a free medium.
The speed of a mechanical wave is fastest in the solid medium and the slowest in the gaseous medium. Hence, as the wave traverses from gaseous medium to the solid medium, its speed increases.
Thus, option A is correct
Answer:
a. the index of refraction for air is slightly larger for blue than for red
A. Coming out near the South Pole and going in near the North Pole
I can't answer this question without a figure. I've found a similar problem as shown in the first picture attached. When adding vectors, you don't have to add the magnitudes only, because vectors also have to factor in the directions. To find the resultant vector C, connect the end tails of the individual vectors.
<em>The red line (second picture) represents the vector C.</em>
Waves transport energy along a medium without transporting matter. The amount of energy carried by a wave is related to the amplitude of the wave. Thus, the higher the wave is from the resting line, the more energy is put in and vice-versa.
