Answer:

2.25m/s

Explanation:

wavelength=4.5m

period=2sec

frequency= 1/period

=1/2

speed= wavelength×wave frequency

=4.5×1/2

=2.25 m/s

so, none of the options are correct

Answer:

The minimum difference between the lengths of the two tubes should be 0.385 meters.

Explanation:

As we known that for any two waves to arrive in phase at any point the difference in the path traveled by the waves should be an integral multiple of the wavelength of the wave.

Mathematically we can write:

$\Delta x=n\frac{\lambda }{2}$

For the given wave we have

$\lambda =\frac{v}{\nu }$

Applying values we get

$\lambda =\frac{339}{440 }=0.77m$

Thus the minimum difference in the lengths of the tubes can be obtained by putting the value of n = 1

$\therefore \Delta x=1\times \frac{0.77}{2}=0.385m$

Answer:

B. After a photon of light is absorbed by certain metals, electrons are found to be ejected from the metals. This is because the energy contained in the massless photon is used to eject an electron with mass out of the metal.

Explanation:

Before, in the early days, it was proposed to form a combined theory by joining the theory of conservation of mass and the theory of conservation of energy and form a combined theory of conservation of mass-energy. It was done to explain a particular theory of $\text{photoelectric effect}$ .

The $\text{photoelectric effect}$ is the emission of the electrons form the surface of a metal when light energy strikes on it. Here, in this phenomenon, both mass and energy is conserved.

When the light strikes a metal surface, electrons gets ejected from the surface. The energy of the photon is used to eject the electron form the metal surface.

List one way to take advantage of creating even more kinetic energy on this particular technologically advanced field

lisabon 2012 [21]

Kinetic energy can be used to develop electric energy which can be used as electricity.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The kinetic energy can be harnessed; much like some hydro power technologies harness water movement. A way to convert this kinetic energy into electric energy is through piezoelectric. By applying a mechanical stress to a piezoelectric crystal or material an electric current will be created and can be harvested.

Kinetic energy is also generated by the human body when it is in motion. Studies have also been done using kinetic energy and then converting it to other types of energy, which is then used to power everything from flashlights to radios and more.
