Question
when an electromagnetic wave reaches a material boundary, different results are possible. identify each result described in the table. result description the wave crosses the boundary and travels through the material the wave’s energy is taken in by the material and converted to another form reflection the wave bounces back after reaching the boundary transmission absorption
First Row (Description: the wave crosses the boundary and travels through the material)
Transmission is the process where a wave crosses a boundary and moves through a material. So this description matches transmission.
Absorption occurs when a material takes in the wave's energy and converts it to another form (like heat). So this description matches absorption.
Reflection is when a wave hits a boundary and bounces back. So this description matches reflection (already partially selected, but confirming the match).
