Answer:
The speed will be "18km/s". A further explanation is given below.
Explanation:
According to the question, the values are:
Wavelength,
As we know,
⇒ 
On substituting the values, we get
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
or,
⇒ 
The correct answer to the question is : Transverse wave.
EXPLANATION :
Before going to answer this question, first we have to understand the longitudinal and transverse wave.
LONGITUDINAL WAVE : A longitudinal wave is a mechanical wave in which the direction of vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of wave propagation. It moves in the form of compression and rarefaction.
For instance, sound wave.
TRANSVERSE WAVE : A transverse wave is a mechanical wave in which the direction of vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. It moves in the form of crests and troughs.
For instance, the wave created in a pond when a stone is dropped into it.
Hence, the correct answer of this question is transverse wave.
Given:
m = 555 g, the mass of water in the calorimeter
ΔT = 39.5 - 20.5 = 19 °C, temperature change
c = 4.18 J/(°C-g), specific heat of water
Assume that all generated heat goes into heating the water.
Then the energy released is
Q = mcΔT
= (555 g)*(4.18 J/(°C-g)*(19 °C)
= 44,078.1 J
= 44,100 J (approximately)
Answer: 44,100 J
