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>

A spring is hung from the ceiling. When a block is attached to its end, it stretches 2.6 cm before reaching its new equilibrium
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

f = 3.09 Hz

Explanation:

This is a simple harmonic motion exercise where the angular velocity is

         w² = \frac{k}{m}

to find the constant (k) of the spring, we use Hooke's law with the initial data

         F = - kx

where the force is the weight of the body that is hanging

        F = W = m g

we substitute

        m g = - k x

        k = - \frac{m g}{x}

we calculate

        k = - \frac{9.8 m}{- 2.6 \ 10^{-2}}

        k = 3.769 10² m

we substitute in the first equation

       w² = \frac{ 3.769 \ 10^2 \ m }{m}

       w = 19.415 rad / s

angular velocity and frequency are related

       w = 2πf

        f = \frac{w}{2\pi }

        f = 19.415 / 2pi

        f = 3.09 Hz

How much work does the electric field do in moving a proton from a point with a potential of +125 v to a point where it is -55 v
777dan777 [17]
The work W done by the electric field in moving the proton is equal to the difference in electric potential energy of the proton between its initial location and its final location, therefore:
W= qV_i - qV_f
where q is the charge of the proton, q=1 e = 1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C, with e being the elementary charge, and V_i = +125 V and V_f = -55 V are the initial and final voltage.

Substituting, we get (in electronvolts):
W=e(125 V-(-55 V))=180 eV
and in Joule:
W=(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19})(125 V-(-55V))=2.88 \cdot 10^{-17}J

Claudia throws a baseball to her dog. Which free-body diagram shows the
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

only the weight of the ball will act on the ball

Explanation: There is no contact force on the ball. Also there is no air resistance on the ball so the friction force on the ball due to air is not shown

How much energy is required to heat 70 g of water at 20°C to boiling
choli [55]

Answer:

Q=23,430J

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since we compute the required energy via:

Q=mC\Delta T

Whereas m is the mass which here is 70 g, C the specific heat which for water is 4.184 J/(g°C) and ΔT is the temperature difference which is:

\Delta T=100-20=80\°C

Therefore, the energy turns out:

Q=70g*4.184\frac{J}{g\°C}*80\°C\\ \\Q=23,430J

Best regards.
