Answer:

\Delta E=1.64*10^{-18}J

Explanation:

The energy difference between the energy levels involved in the transition of the electron is directly proportional to the frequency of the emitted photon:

\Delta E=h\nu(1)

Where h is the Planck constant. The photon's frequency is inversely proportional to its wavelegth:

\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}(2)

Here c is the speed of light. Replacing (2) in (1):

\Delta E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\Delta E=\frac{(6.63*10^{-34}J\cdot s)(3*10^8\frac{m}{s})}{121.6*10^{-9}m}\\\Delta E=1.64*10^{-18}J

Answer:

\boxed{\sf Work \ done = 4 \ J}

Given:

Force = 8 N

Distance covered by the body = 50 cm = 0.5 m

Explanation:

Work Done = Force × Distance covered by the body

= 8 × 0.5

= 4 J
