a)    t = 0.113 s , b)     W = 0.1756 N , c)   # λ = 49

Explanation:

a) Let's use the relationship

         v = λ f

Of the equation

         y = 8.55 10-3 cos (172 x + 2730 t)

When comparing this with the general equation

         y = A cos (kx - wt)

The wave number k = 172

       k = 2π /λ

       λ = 2π / 172

       λ = 0.03653 m

The angular velocity w = 2730

     w = 2π f

      f = w / 2π

     f = 2730 / 2π

     f = 434.49 Hz

The speed of the wave is

      v = 0.03653    434.49

      v = 15.87 m / s

The speed the wave on a string is constant, so

      v = d / t

      t = d / v

      t = 1.80 /15.87

      t = 0.113 s

b) The weight applied to the rope

      v = √ T /μ

The density

     μ = m / l

     μ = (0.0123 / 9.8) /1.80

     μ = 6.97 10-4 kg / m

The tension equal to the applied weight

    T = v² μ

    W = T = 15.87²   6.97 10⁻⁴

    W = 0.1756 N

c) let's use a rule of proportions

    # λ = 1.8 /0.03653

      # λ = 49

you'd use the equation that establishes a relationship between  energy  and  wavelength, which looks like this

e=h⋅cλ, where

λ  - the wavelength of the photon; c  - the speed of light, usually given as  3⋅108m/s; h  -  planck's constant, equal to  6.626⋅10−34j s

plug the value you were given for the energy of the photon in the above equation to get the wavelength

e=h⋅cλ⇒λ=h⋅ce

λ=6.626⋅10−34js⋅3⋅108ms−1.257⋅10−24j=1.581⋅10−1m
