Answer
The displacement of medium particlles at distance 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50cm are always rest which is the property of nodes in stationary wave.
$\text{AT}\ \text{t}=\frac{\text{T}}{4}$ and $\frac{\text{3T}}{4}$ all particle are at rest wgich is in stationary wave when the particle crossrs its mean position.
so thet praph of wave shos stationaty wave. The wave at $\text{x}=10,\ 20,\ 30,\ 40\text{cm}$ there are nodes and distance between successive nodes is $\frac{\lambda}{2}$$\therefore\frac{\lambda}{2}=(30-20)$ or $\lambda=20\text{cm.}$

According to Stefan’s law of radiation, a black body radiates energy $\sigma=\text{T}^4$ from its unit surface area every second where T is the surface temperature of the black body and $\sigma=5.67\times10^{-8}\text{w}/\text{m}^2\text{K}^4$ is known as Stefan’s constant. A nuclear weapon may be thought of as a ball of radius 0.5m. When detonated, it reaches temperature of 106K and can be treated as a black body.
→- Estimate the power it radiates.
