We know, Speed = Wavelength * Frequency 
Speed = 32.4 * 3 
Speed = 97.2 m/s

So, option D is your correct answer.

Hope it helped.

Answer : (D) The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 1 second

Explanation :

It is given that,

Wavelength of the wave is, \lambda=32.4\ cm

Frequency of the wave, \nu=3\ Hz

We know that the number of oscillation produced per second by a wave is called the frequency of the wave.

i.e.

\nu=\dfrac{1}{T}

Where,

T is the time period of the wave

T=\dfrac{1}{3}\ s

Speed of the wave is given by :

s=\dfrac{\lambda}{t}

s=\dfrac{32.4\ cm}{\dfrac{1}{3}\ s}

s=97.2\ cm/s

So, the correct option is (D)" The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 1 second ".

Hence, this is the required solution.

Ifa truck starts from rest and it has acceleration of 4 m/s for 5 second
yan [13]

Answer:

Distance 50m

final velocity 20ms^-1

s = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}  \\  = 0 \times t +  \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times  {5}^{2}   = 50m

v = u + at \\ v = 0 + 4 \times 5 \\ v = 20ms^{ - 1}

The body went 450 meters within 30 seconds of starting the movement. In what time did the first 50 meters go?
Andrew [12]

3.33 seconds.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We can find the speed of the body using the formula,

Speed = Distance traveled in meters /  time taken in seconds

= 450 m / 30 seconds

= 15 m/s

So per second the distance traveled by the body is 15 m.

So time needed to travel 50 m can be found as,

time = distance/speed

= 50 m / 15 m /s

= 3.33 s

What is the value of n in the balmer series for which the wavelength is 410.2 nm.?
m_a_m_a [10]

The answer is n= 6.

What is Balmer series?

The Balmer series is the portion of the emission spectrum of hydrogen that represents electron transitions from energy levels n > 2 to n = 2. These are four lines in the visible spectrum. They are also known as the Balmer lines. The four visible Balmer lines of hydrogen appear at 410 nm, 434 nm, 486 nm and 656 nm.

For the Balmer series, the final energy level is always n=2. So, the wavelengths 653.6, 486.1, 434.0, and 410.2 nm correspond to n=3, n=4, n=5, and n=6 respectively. Since the last wavelength, 410.2 nm, corresponds to n=6, the next wavelength should logically correspond to n=7.

To solve for the wavelength, calculate the individual energies, E2 and E7, using E=-hR/(n^2). Then, calculate the energy difference between E2 (which is the final) and E7 (which is the initial). Finally, use lamba=hc/E to get the wavelength.
