Energy at top = U = mgh = 40 * 9.8 * 12 = 4704 J

Energy at bottom = 1/2 mv² = 1/2 * 40 * 10² = 4000 / 2 = 2000 J

Energy Lost = Final - Initial = 4704 - 2000 = 2704 J

In short, Your Answer would be Option D

Hope this helps!

Here's what you need to know about waves:

Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)

Now ... The question gives you the speed and the frequency,
but they're stated in unusual ways, with complicated numbers.

Frequency:  How many each second ?
The thing that's making the waves is vibrating 47 times in 26.9 seconds.
Frequency = (47) / (46.9 s) =  1.747... per second.  (1.747... Hz)

Speed:  How far a point on a wave travels in 1 second.
The crest of one wave travels 4.16 meters in 13.7 seconds.
Speed = (4.16 m / 13.7 sec) = 0.304... m/s

Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)

Wavelength = (0.304 m/s) / (1.747 Hz)  =  0.174 meter per second
