The amount of coal burnt each year to produce 8.53 × 10¹⁶ Joule of energy is 2.3 x 10¹² gram.

<h3>What is Combustion?</h3>

Burning of coal in the presence of air is called combustion.

As according to the given question,

A coal-burning power plant generates 8.53 × 10¹⁶ Joule of energy in a year.

1 gram of coal yields generates 36 kilo joule (36000 Joule) energy.

Hence, to generate 8.53 × 10¹⁶ Joule of energy in a year, the weight of carbon burnt will be ;

= 1/36000 x 8.53 × 10¹⁶

= 2.3 x 10¹² gram

A photon of light possesses 5 x 10^-19 J of energy. Calculate its frequency
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The frequency of photon is 0.75×10¹⁵ s⁻¹.

Explanation:

Given data:

Energy of photon = 5×10⁻¹⁹ J

Frequency of photon = ?

Solution:

Formula;

E = hf

h = planck's constant = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js

5×10⁻¹⁹ J =  6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js ×f

f =  5×10⁻¹⁹ J / 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js

f = 0.75×10¹⁵ s⁻¹

The frequency of photon is 0.75×10¹⁵ s⁻¹.
