Stels [109]3 years ago

Answer:

Yes the student is correct

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed

The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy (disorderliness) of an isolated system always increases

Therefore, whereby energy is not supplied to maintain the orderly oscillatory motion with constant amplitude, the amplitude of the system is bound to reduce with time that is the vibration of the system must be damped

Sound waves, water waves, and light waves are all alike in that they all
Paha777 [63]
Sound and water waves are longitudinal waves, they require a medium to travel through and occilate particles 90 degrees to the wave motion
Light is a transverse wave. It doesnt require a medium to travel through.
All three reflect, refract and diffract


Light is difficult to think of because it acts in ways which waves cannot explain in some cirumstances. It acts like a particle (called photons) in some conditions, but acts like a normal sound or water wave does in others. Try not to get too caught up in light being a wave or a particle because even physists dont know how to explain it yet.
