In a photoelectric effect experiment you illuminate a metal with light of an unknown wavelength and measure the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons to be 0.65 ev. then you illuminate the same metal with light of a wavelength known to be 2/3 of the first wavelength and measure a maximum kinetic energy of 2.3 ev for the photoelectrons.

(a) find the first wavelength, in nanometers.
(b) find the metal's work function, in electron volts.

Two loudspeakers, 5.5 m apart and facing each other, play identical sounds of the same frequency. you stand halfway between them, where there is a maximum of sound intensity. moving from this point toward one of the speakers, you encounter a minimum of sound intensity when you have moved 0.33 m . assume the speed of sound is 340 m/s.part a) what is the frequency of the sound? part b) if the frequency is then increased while you remain 0.21 m from the center, what is the first frequency for which that location will be a maximum of sound intensity? express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
