Since many wavelengths of light are measured in nanometers, it's useful to know that planck's constant (h) multiplied with the s

peed of
light (c) is equal to 1240 eVnm.
This is useful, as E = hf, or otherwise written as E= .
With this information in mind, solve the following:
A photon has 1.6 eV of energy. What is the wavelength of this photon?
O a
410 nm
Ob
775 nm
Ос
1984 nm
Od
306 nm

Answer:

E = h f      and since f = c / λ     we have E = h c / λ

Thus  λ = h c / E

Also, 1 ev = 1.6E-19 C

λ = 6.63E-34 * 3.0E8 / (1.6 * 1.6E-19)

λ = 6.63 * 3.0 / (1.6 * 1.6) * E-7

λ = 7.77E-7 = 777 nanometers

(B) is correct

Describe how could you use an electromagnete to sort a mixture of iron and copper pieces into two seprate piles of iron and copp
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Electromagnetic cranes are used to separate copper from iron in a scrap yard. The current is switched on to energies the electromagnet and pick up the iron pieces from the scrap. Then these iron pieces are moved to another position, the electromagnet in switched off and the iron pieces are released.

A stone is thrown vertically into the air at an initial velocity of 96 ft/s. On Mars, the height s (in feet) of the stone above
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

240 ft

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 96 ft/s

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = 12 m/s² on Mars 32 ft/s² on Earth negative due to upward direction

Mars

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=96\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times -12\times t^2\\\Rightarrow s=96t-6t^2\ ft

Earth

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=96\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times -32\times t^2\\\Rightarrow s=96t-16t^2\ ft

Differentiating the first equation with respect to time we get

\frac{ds}{dt}=96-12t

Equating with zero

0=96-12t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{96}{12}=8\ s

Differentiating the second equation with respect to time we get

\frac{ds}{dt}=96-32t

Equating with zero

0=96-32t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{96}{32}=3\ s

Applying the time taken to the above equations, we get

s=96t-6t^2\ ft\\\Rightarrow s=96\times 8-6\times 8^2\\\Rightarrow s=384

s=96t-16t^2\\\Rightarrow s=96\times 3-16\times 3^2\\\Rightarrow s=144

Difference in height = 384-144 = 240 ft

The stone will travel 240 ft higher on Mars

You drop a steel ball bearing, with a radius of 2.40 mm, into a beaker of honey. Note that honey has a viscosity of 6.00 Pa/s an
Stells [14]

Answer:

The “terminal speed” of the ball bearing is 5.609 m/s

Explanation:

Radius of the steel ball R = 2.40 mm

Viscosity of honey η = 6.0 Pa/s

\text { Viscosity has Density } \sigma=1360 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}

\text { Steel has a density } \rho=7800 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}

\left.\mathrm{g}=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} \text { (g is referred to as the acceleration of gravity. Its value is } 9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} \text { on Earth }\right)

While calculating the terminal speed in liquids where density is high the stokes law is used for viscous force and buoyant force is taken into consideration for effective weight of the object. So the expression for terminal speed (Vt)

V_{t}=\frac{2 \mathrm{R}^{2}(\rho-\sigma) \mathrm{g}}{9 \eta}

Substitute the given values to find "terminal speed"

\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{t}}=\frac{2 \times 0.0024^{2}(7800-1360) 9.8}{9 \times 6}

\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{t}}=\frac{0.0048 \times 6440 \times 9.8}{54}

\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{t}}=\frac{302.9376}{54}

\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{t}}=5.609 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

The “terminal speed” of the ball bearing is 5.609 m/s
