Solution

The text you provided contains multiple questions. Let's answer them one by one:

  1. The frequency of the electromagnetic wave is 2.5 x 10^14 Hz. This frequency falls within the visible light to ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Ultraviolet.

  2. The intensity of light transmitted through two polarizing filters is given by Malus's law, which states that the intensity I of the transmitted light is directly proportional to the square of the cosine of the angle θ between the transmission axes of the filters. The angle between the filters is 30 degrees. So, the intensity I of the light transmitted from the second filter is I = I0 * cos^2(θ) = 8.0 W/m^2 * cos^2(30) = 8.0 W/m^2 * (0.866)^2 = 6.0 W/m^2. Therefore, the correct answer is D. 6.0 W/m^2.

  3. A stationary wave on a stretched string is set up between two points P and T. The points at maximum amplitude (maximum displacement from the rest position) are called antinodes, and the points with zero amplitude (no displacement) are called nodes. In the given diagram, points P, R, and T are nodes, and points Q and S are antinodes. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Points Q and S vibrate in phase.
