23) A high school website directs parents to not allow student access to blue laser pointers or allow the students to bring them

to school. It includes a video describing the danger inherent in the misuse of all laser pointers particularly the blue laser pointer. Why would they claim that blue laser pointers are more of a concern than red laser pointers?

Mainly because of the higher energy of blue light than red light.

In fact, light is made of photons, each one carrying an energy equal to
E=hf
where h is the Planck constant while f is the frequency of the light.
The frequency of red light is approximately 450 THz, while the frequency of blue light is about 650 Hz. Higher frequency means higher energy, so blue light is more energetic than red light and therefore it can cause more damages than red light.

The bright yellow light emitted by a sodium vapor lamp consists of two emission lines at 589.0 and 589.6 nm. What are the freque
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

wavelength of emissions are

\lambda _1=589 nm

\lambda _2=589.6 nm

Energy is given by

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }

where h=Planck's constant

x=velocity of Light

\lambda=wavelength of emission

E_1=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{589\times 10^{-9}}

E_1=3.374\times 10^{-19} J

E_1 in kJ/mol

E_1=203.2 kJ/mol

frequency corresponding to this emission

\nu =\frac{c}{\lambda }

\nu _1=\frac{3\times 10^8}{589\times 10^{-9}}

\nu _1=5.09\times 10^{14} Hz

Energy corresponding to \lambda _2

E_2=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{589.6\times 10^{-9}}

E_2=3.371\times 10^{-19} J

E_2=203.02 kJ/mol

frequency corresponding to this emission

\nu =\frac{c}{\lambda }

\nu _1=\frac{3\times 10^8}{589.6\times 10^{-9}}

\nu _1=5.088\times 10^{14} Hz

A horizontal force of 30N is applied to a mass of 10 kg causing it to accelerate. If the coefficient of friction is 0.20 what is
Blizzard [7]

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

The force of friction is equal to the product of the vertical force applied by the surface to the object in the coefficient of friction.

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

In this question ,

surface vertical force = Weight of the object

Thus ;

svf = ( mass ) × ( gravity acceleration )

_________________________________

If gravity acceleration is 10 :

svf = 10 × 10 = 100 N

So ;

frictional force = 100 × 0.20

frictional force = 20 N

##############################

If gravity acceleration is 9.8 :

svf = 10 × 9.8 = 98 N

So ;

frictional force = 98 × 0.20

frictional force = 19.6 N

6. If a drag racer wins the final round of herrace by going an average speed of 320 m/sin 4.5 seconds, what distance did he cove
Ivan

We want to calculate the distance covered by the drag racer. Recall, the formula for calculating distance is expressed as

Distance = speed x time

From the information given,

speed = 320 m/s

time = 4.5 s

By substituting these values into the formula, we have

Distance = 320 m/s x 4.5s

s cancels out. We are left with m. Thus,

Distance = 1440m
