Answer: Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, rather it is converted from one form to another
Explanation:
The principle of conversation of energy explains how energy is conserved in nature by being converted from one form to another such that no energy is created nor destroyed.
Practical examples include:
- electrical pressing iron that converts electrical energy to heat energy
- solar panels that converts solar energy to electrical energy
- Car batteries that converts chemical energy to light energy etc

Then, as far as orientation of reflected and transmitted pulses are concerned the reflected pulse returns inverted while the transmitted pulse is right side up.
Hence the correct answer is b.
