Answer:

KE=2.3 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

Given that

λ = 544 nm

λ' = 485 nm

The kinetic energy KE given as

KE= E - Ф

Where

E=\dfrac{hC}{\lambda'}

\phi=\dfrac{hC}{\lambda}

h= 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴

C=3 x 10⁸ m/s

Now by putting the values

KE=\dfrac{hC}{\lambda'}-\dfrac{hC}{\lambda}

KE=\dfrac{34.34\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{485\times 10^{-9}}- \dfrac{34.34\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{544\times 10^{-9}}

KE=2.3 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

This is kinetic energy.

For the "what is this investigation about", you could pick
the shape of the Earth, the size of the Earth, how the Sun
generates its energy, the distance to the Moon, why the 
sky is blue ... things like that.  There are millions uvum.

Trustworthy sources of information:
-- an Encyclopedia
-- a library book that's all about the subject of the investigation
-- a magazine that's all about exactly the subject of the investigation
-- a TV program that's ALL ABOUT the subject of the investigation
-- a teacher who teaches the subject of the investigation
-- a high school student whose hobby is the subject of the investigation
-- an adult whose hobby is the subject of the investigation
-- an adult whose JOB is the subject of the investigation
-- a high school student who got a very good grade in a course
where the subject of the investigation was taught 
-- a college student who is studying the same subject as the investigation 

UN-trustworthy sources of information:
(This doesn't mean that they're always wrong.  It means that
they can tell you something, and you just can't be sure of
whether it's right or wrong.)
-- some sources listed on Google
-- some YouTube videos
-- other students in your class
-- other students at your school 
-- your next-door neighbor (unless he's on the 'trustworthy' list above)
-- a newspaper article
-- a TV news item, or a TV program that's NOT all about the subject
-- a public opinion poll; (just because everybody thinks so
   doesn't mean that it's true)
-- your sister's friend's hairdresser's grocer's mother-in-law
-- anything you hear if you don't know WHO said it

How long will it take a transverse wave to propagate from one end of the string to the other?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The time taken by a transverse wave to propagate from one end to another depends on the number of oscillation made by the wave itself. If the total number of oscillation of the wave is known, the time taken by the wave to propagate through can be determined.

Note that the term "period" is the time taken by a transverse wave to complete one oscillation. So if we know the number of oscillation made in one second by the wave and the total oscillation made, then we can know determine how long it will take a transverse wave to propagate from one end of the string to the other
