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

Newton's 3 laws are...

inertia: things tend to continue to do what they are doing.

Change: to make something change you need a force to change it. the force needed = the mass times its acceleration

The next four questions refer to the situation below.
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

 t_{out} = \frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r} t_{in},      t_{out} = \frac{D}{v_s +v_r}

Explanation:

This in a relative velocity exercise in one dimension,

let's start with the swimmer going downstream

its speed is

         v_{sg 1} = v_{sr} + v_{rg}

The subscripts are s for the swimmer, r for the river and g for the Earth

with the velocity constant we can use the relations of uniform motion

           v_{sg1} = D / t_{out}

           D = v_{sg1}  t_{out}

now let's analyze when the swimmer turns around and returns to the starting point

        v_{sg 2} =  v_{sr}  - v_{rg}

         v_{sg 2} = D / t_{in}

         D = v_{sg 2}  t_{in}

with the distance is the same we can equalize

           v_{sg1} t_{out} = v_{sg2} t_{in}

          t_{out} =  t_{in}

           t_{out} = \frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r} t_{in}

This must be the answer since the return time is known. If you want to delete this time

            t_{in}= D / v_{sg2}

we substitute

            t_{out} = \frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r} ()

            t_{out} = \frac{D}{v_s +v_r}
