In what region of the electromagnetic spectrum is a photon found that possesses twice as much energy as one in the blue region (

442 nm) of the visible spectrum?

<span>The answer is: ultraviolet The energy (E) of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency f, by Planck's formula: E = hf, where h is Planck's constant (6.625 * 10**-34 joule-second). The frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength w by: f = c/w, where c is the speed of light, 3.0 * 10**8 meters per second. Combine these formulas and we see that the energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength by: E = hc/w If the energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength, a photon with twice the energy has half the wavelength of our 442-nm. photon in this example. So its wavelength is 221 nm. which is in the ultraviolet range.</span>

1.a car sitting at rest on the road <br>balanced or unbalanced<br>explain your answer​
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Balanced force

Explanation:

Balanced Forces, When forces are in balance, acceleration is zero. Velocity is constant and there is no net or unbalanced force. ... Although friction is acting on the person, there is no change in velocity and friction is not a net force in this case. Friction is only a net force if it changes the velocity of a mass.

Emily holds a banana of mass m over the edge of a bridge of height h. She drops the banana and it falls to the river below. Use
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The mass of the banana is m and it is at height h.

Applying the Law of Conservation of Energy

              Total Energy before fall = Total Energy after fall

                                E_{i}  = E_{f}

Here, total energy is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy

K.E_{i} + P.E_{i} = K.E_{f} + P.E_{f}       (a)

When banana is at height h, it has

                 K.E_{i} = 0    and    P.E_{i} = mgh          

and when it reaches the river, it has

       K.E_{f}  = 1/2mv^{2}    and   P.E_{f}  = 0

Putting the values in equation (a)

                              0 + mgh = 1/2mv^{2} + 0

                                      mgh = 1/2mv^{2}

<em>cutting 'm' from both sides</em>

<em>                                           </em>gh = 1/2v^{2}

                                          v = \sqrt{2gh}

Hence, the velocity of banana before hitting the water is

                                          v = \sqrt{2gh}
