Explanation :

The amplitude, wavelength and time period of three waves are given.

We know that energy of a wave is given by :

E=\dfrac{h\ c}{\lambda}

It is clear that energy of a wave is inversely proportional to the wavelength i.e E\propto \dfrac{1}{\lambda}

So, the wave having less wavelength will have the greatest energy.

Also, we know that energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of amplitude i.e. E\propto(Amplitude)^2

So, again the wave having maximum amplitude will have maximum energy.

Hence, the correct option is (C) i.e. "amplitude = 14 cm; wavelength = 7 cm; period = 12 seconds".

The equation for the energy of a wave is given by the equation of E = A^2 where E is the energy of the wave and A is the amplitude. The higher the amplitude, the greater the energy of the wave is and vice versa. An amplitude of 14cm has the greatest energy of the wave followed by 12cm and then 7cm.

Which is more reactive oxygen or hydrogen? explain why?
mash [69]

Answer:

Explanation:

Which is more reactive hydrogen or oxygen?

Hydrogen is not particularly reactive. For example, just mixing hydrogen and oxygen gas will not cause a reaction at room temperature, but many metal elements oxidize at least on the surface in air. ... It is combustible because oxygen wants electrons and takes them from hydrogen to form water.

Which organism has a central brain A.sponge B. hydra C. flatworm D. fish
Scilla [17]
D. Fish
The brain is part of an organism's central nervous system. Simpler organisms such as sponges, hydrae, and flatworms lack the complexity in their central nervous systems to have a brain. A fish, on the other hand, is complex enough to have a central brain.

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D)  a motile eukaryote</em>

Explanation:

Peroxisomes are structures which are present only in the plant or animal cells. Hence, based on this observation we can easily tell that the organism which is newly discovered is a eukaryote. Both plants and animals are eukaryotes.

Flagella are structures which are thin and hair shaped. Flagella allow movement of a cell, mostly they allow a whip-like movement. Based on this observation we will conclude that the organism discovered is a motile eukaryote.
