The correct answer to the question will be B) Both can be characterized by amplitude, frequency, and wavelength. The speed of both is affected by the medium through which it travels.

EXPLANATION:

Light is an electromagnetic wave which is transverse in nature. It contains both the electric field and magnetic field which are perpendicular to each other as well as perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

We know that a transverse wave is characterized by its amplitude, frequency and wavelength . Here, crests and troughs are created which give the idea about the wavelength . The distance between two successive crests or troughs is called wavelength.

A sound wave is a longitudinal wave which moves in the form of compressions and rarefactions. Compressions are the high pressure zones while rarefactions are the low pressure zones in the wave. Here, the distance between two successive compresions or rarefactions is called wavelength of the wave. It is also characterized by frequency and amplitude.

The speed of light is medium dependent . It is more in optically rarer medium while less in optically denser medium . The light does not require any medium for its propagation. It may propagate through space where it has the maximum velocity.

The speed of sound is also medium dependent . It depends on the density and elasticity of the medium.It can not travel through vacuum. It needs a medium for its propagation.

When a fixed amount of ideal gas goes through an isobaric expansion A) its internal (thermal) energy does not change.B) the gas

Bingel [31]

<h2>Answer: its temperature must increase.</h2>

Explanation:

In an isobaric process the pressure remains constant, which means the initial pressure and the final pressure will be the same.

In addition, during this thermodynamic process, the volume of the ideal gas expands or contracts in such a way that the variation of pressure $\Delta P$ is neutralized.

Now, according to the First law of Thermodynamics that establishes the conservation of energy:

$\Delta U=\Delta Q-\Delta W$ (1)

Where:

$\Delta U$ is the internal energy

$\Delta Q$ is the heat transferred

$\Delta W$ is the work

Now, for an isobaric process:

$\Delta W=P\Delta V$ (2)

Where:

$P$ is the pressure (<u>always positive</u>)

$\Delta V$ is the volume variation of the gas

<u />

<u>Here we have two possible results:</u>

-If the gas expands (positive $\Delta V$ ), the work is positive.

-If the gas compresses (negative $\Delta V$ ), the work is negative.

In this case we are talking about the first result (work is positive).

Then, according to the above, equation (1) can be written as follows:

$\Delta U=\Delta Q - P\Delta V$ (3)

Clearing $\Delta Q$ :

$\Delta Q=\Delta U+P \Delta V$ (4)

Then, for an ideal gas in an isobaric process, part of the heat ( $Q$ ) added to the system will be used to do work (positive in this case) and the other part <u>will increase the internal energy</u>, hence <u>the temperature will increase as well.</u>
