A photon has a wavelength of 500nm what is the energy associated

1 answer:

8 0

Given: Plank's constant h = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

Speed of light c = 2.998 x 10⁸ m/s

Wavelength λ = 500 nm convert to meter = 5 x 10⁻⁷ m

Required: Energy E =?

Formula: E = hc/λ

E = (6.626 X 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(2.998 X 10⁸ m/s)/5 x 10⁻⁷ m

E = 3.97 X 10⁻¹⁹ J or in termS of electron volt

E = 2.48 eV

A tuning fork vibrating at 508 Hz falls from rest and accelerates at 9.80 m/s^2. How far below the point of release is the tunin

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

given,

tuning fork vibration = 508 Hz

accelerates = 9.80 m/s²

speed of sound = 343 m/s

observed frequency = 490 Hz

$f_s = f(\dfrac{v}{v-(-v_s)})$

$f_s = f(\dfrac{v}{v+v_s})$

$v_s = v[\dfrac{f_s}{f_o}-1]$

$= 343[\dfrac{508}{490}-1]$

$v_s=12.6 m/s$

distance the tunning fork has fallen

$y_1=\dfrac{v^2}{2a_y}$

$=\dfrac{12.6^2}{2\times 9.8}$

=8.1 m

now, time required for the observed will be

$t = \dfrac{8.1}{343} = 0.023 s$

now, for the distance calculation

$y_2 = u\ t + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

$= 12.6\times 0.023 +\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times 0.023^2$

=0.293 m

total distance

= 8.1 + 0.293 = 8.392 m

In a certain chemical process, a lab technician supplies 292 J of heat to a system. At the same time, 68.0 J of work are done on

vekshin1

Answer:

The increase in the internal energy of the system is 360 Joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

Heat supplied to a system, Q = 292 J

Work done on the system by its surroundings, W = 68 J

We need to find the increase in the internal energy of the system. It can be given by first law of thermodynamics. It is given by :

$dE=dQ+dW\\\\dE=292\ J+68\ J\\\\dE=360\ J$

So, the increase in the internal energy of the system is 360 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

A person is standing on a raft; their

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The volume of water displaced by the raft is 0.233 m³

Explanation:

The question relates to Archimedes' principle which states that the buoyant force experienced by an object immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of (the force of gravity on) the displaced fluid

The given parameters are;

The combined mass of the person and the raft, m = 233 kg

The liquid on which the raft is located = Water

The density of water, $\rho _{water}$ = 1000 kg/m³
