V = final velocity
u = initial velocity
a = acceleration
s = displacement
Take downward direction as positive.
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
v^2 = 0.8^2 + 2(1.6)(5.5)
v^2 = 18.24
v = 4.27 m/s
The acceleration of the given wave is 2.5m/s^2
<h3>Wave property</h3>
The standard wave function is expressed according to the equation
y = Asin(2πft+2πx/λ)
where
λ is the wave length
Given the equation below
y = 0.120 sin((π/8)x + 4πt)
Compare both equation to have:
(π/8)x = 2πx/λ
8 = 2/λ
λ = 2/8
λ = 1/4
λ = 0.25m
For the frequency
Compare both equation to have:
4πt = 2πft
4 = 2f
4/2 = 2f/2
f = 2 Hz
Speed = fλ
speed = 2(0.25)
speed = 0.5m/s
Determine the acceleration
acceleration = change in velocity/time
acceleration = 0.5/ 0.200
acceleration = 2.5m/s^2
Hence the acceleration of the given wave is2.5m/s^2

Answer:
The semiconductor rod will conduct electricity
Explanation:
Glass rod does not conduct electricity. Glass is one of the best insulators of electricity. But when a glass rod is replace with a semi conductor, then the semi conductor rod starts conducting electricity as the electrons are free to move.
Semi conductors are special materials in which the energy band lies in between the conductor and the non conductor. The conductivity of a semi conductor increases with the increasing temperature.
In an semi conductor the electrons are free to move and as they starts moving they conduct electricity. Thus a semi conductor rod replacing a glass rod conducts electricity.
As air becomes warmer it condensates
