The line spectrum of lithium has a red line at 670.8 nm. Calculate the energy of a photon with this wavelength.

Vadim26 [7]3 years ago

First of all, we can calculate the frequency of the photon, which is related to the wavelength by the following equation:
f= \frac{c}{\lambda}
where c is the speed of light and \lambda=670.8 nm=670.8 \cdot 10^{-9} m is the photon wavelength. Substituting into the formula, we find the frequency
f= \frac{c}{\lambda}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{670.8 \cdot 10^{-9} m}=4.47 \cdot 10^{14} Hz

Now we can find the energy of the photon with the following equation:
E=hf
where h is the Planck constant. Substituting numbers, we find
E=hf=(6.6 \cdot 10^{-34}Js)(4.47 \cdot 10^{14} Hz)=2.95 \cdot 10^{-19} J

The GPE of a 70kg person standing on a chair 1m off the ground is how many joules?
Artemon [7]
GPE I am assuming is gravitational potential energy. I'll denote it as U for simplicity. 

U = mgy
U = (70kg)(9.81m/s^2)(1m) = 686.7J

U = 686.7J

Hope this helps!

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

8451.62109367671 Newtons

Explanation:

1\ kg=1\times 9.8066500286389=9.8066500286389\ N

1 \lb=2.2046226218488\ kg

It is known that

1\ lbs=\dfrac{9.8066500286389}{2.2046226218488}=4.4482216282508\ N

So,

1900\ lbs=1900\times 4.4482216282508\\\Rightarrow 1900\ lbs=8451.6210936765\ N

The force in Newtons is 8451.6210936765 Newtons

A 5.4 g lead bullet moving at 261 m/s strikes a steel plate and stops. If all its kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Change in temperature ∆(tita) is 266.097°C

Explanation:

Ok kinectic energy = 1/2MV²

5.4 grams =( 5.4/1000) kilogram

Kinectic energy =( 1/2 )*(5.4/1000)*261²

Kinectic energy = 183.9267 joules

If kinetic energy = thermal energy

183.9267 joules = mc∆(tita)

Where ∆(tita) = change in temperature

And c = 128 J/kg

∆(tita) = 183.9267/((5.4/1000)*128)

∆(tita) = 266.097

∆(tita) = 266.097°C
