Apply the wave equation:
v = wavelength × frequency
v = 8 m × 4 Hz = 32 m/s.

A jet makes a landing traveling due east with a speed of 120 m/s .

vesna_86 [32]

Average acceleration over a time interval lasting $\Delta t$ is

$a_{\rm ave}=\dfrac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

where $\Delta v$ is the difference in the jet's final and initial velocities. It's coming to a rest, so

$a_{\rm ave}=\dfrac{0-120\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}}{13.5\,\rm s}=-8.9\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}$

so the average acceleration has magnitude 8.9 m/s^2 and is pointing West (the direction opposite the jet's movement, which should make sense because the jet is slowing down).

What physical property makes the red light different from blue light, or radio waves different from microwaves?

inna [77]

Only their wavelength does.

Blue light waves have only roughly half the wavelength of red light waves, and the so-called "microwaves" are the radio waves with the shortest wavelengths.
