Answer:
Red photons have the least amount of energy
Explanation:
The relationship between the photon energy and the color of light is given by:
where
E is the energy
h is the Planck constant
c is the speed of light
is the wavelength (which determines the color of light)
As we see from the equation, energy and wavelength are inversely proportional: this means that the longer the wavelength, the lower the energy, and viceversa.
Among the colors in the visible light spectrum, red is the color with longest wavelength (620-750 nm) and violet is the color with shortest wavelength (380-450 nm). This means that red photons have the least amount of energy, while violet photons have the greatest amount of energy.
So the correct choice is
Red photons have the least amount of energy
Answer: It should be the 3rd option down!
Explanation:
Answer:
(4) weight
Explanation:
The centripetal force acting on the space shuttle in orbit is given by:
where
m is the mass of the shuttle
v is the tangential speed of the shuttle
r is the radius of its circular orbit
When the shuttle orbits the Earth, the centripetal force that keeps the shuttle in circular motion is given by the gravitational attraction between the shuttle and the Earth, which corresponds to the weight of the shuttle, and it is given by:
where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth's mass
And this force, therefore, corresponds to the centripetal force.
In solids, particles or atom are very closely arranged compared to gasses. When these particles are arranged in such proximity, vibrations from sound are very easily transmitted from one particle to another in the solid. Hence, the sound vibrations can travel through the solid medium more quickly than through a gas medium.
Speed of sound also depends on its frequency and the wavelength.
Energy is the quantitative property that must be transferred to an object in order to perform work on, or to heat, the object.
