Answer:

The beam of red light contains more photons

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency:

E=hf

where

h is the Planck constant

f is the frequency of the photon

In the electromagnetic spectrum, red light has longer wavelength than blue light: this means that red light has lower frequency than blue light (because frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other). So, this means that one photon of red ligth has less energy than a single photon of blue light. Therefore, in order to have two beams with same energy, the beam of red light must contain more photons than the beam of blue light.

Complete Question

A radio technician measures the frequency of an AM radio transmitter. The frequency is 14603 kHz . What is the frequency in megahertz? Write your answer as a decimal.

Answer:

The value is  x =  14.6 \  MHz

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  frequency is  f =  14603  \  kHz = 14603 *1000 = 14603000 \ Hz

Generally  

       1 Hz \to  1.0 *10^{-6} \  MHz

       14603000 \ Hz  \to x MHz

=>   x =  \frac{14603000 *  1.0*10^{-6}}{1 }

=>    x =  14.6 \  MHz

Answer:

Explanation:

Conservation of momentum

Initial momentum is zero

3(15) + 2(v) = 0

v = - 22.5 m/s

v = 22.5 m/s downward

If the pitched ball was traveling 77 mph before stanton's bat hit it and 120 mph after his bat hit it, by what amount did the sp
Mice21 [21]

here we will use the concept of Newton's III law

as per Newton's III law the impulse given to the ball is same as the impulse lost by the bat

So here we will say

impulse gain by the ball = impulse lost by the bat

m_1(v_f - v_i) = m_2(\Delta v)

given that

m_1 = 5 ounce

m_2 = 32 ounce

For ball the change in speed will be

v_f - v_i = (120 - 77)mph

now from above equation

5\times (120 - 77) = 32 \times \Delta v

\Delta v = 6.72 mph

so speed of bat will decrease by 6.72 mph
