If the wavelength is given, the energy can be determined by first using the wave equation (c = λ × ν) to find the frequency, then using Planck's equation to calculate energy. Use the equations above to answer the following questions. 1. Ultraviolet radiation has a frequency of 6.8 × 1015 1/s.

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Frequency, f = 1 unit

Explanation:

It is given that,

Period of the wave, T = 1 unit

We need to find the frequency of the wave. There exist an inverse relationship between period and the frequency of the wave. It is given by :

$T=\dfrac{1}{f}$

$f=\dfrac{1}{T}$

$f=\dfrac{1}{1\ units}$

f = 1 unit

So, the frequency of the wave is 1 unit. Hence, this is the required solution.

A kettle of water contains 1.2 kg of water. Calculate how much energy is required to hear it from water at 10 degrees to its boi

Darya [45]

Answer:

450 kJ

Explanation:

Q = mCΔT

where Q is heat (energy),

m is mass,

C is specific heat capacity,

and ΔT is the temperature change.

Q = (1.2 kg) (4180 J/kg/°C) (100°C − 10°C)

Q = 451,440 J

Q ≈ 450 kJ

Given:

Initial speed of the motorcycle (u) = 35 m/s

Final speed of the motorcycle (v) = 0 m/s (Complete Stop)

Maximum deceleration of the motorcycle (a) = -1.2 m/s²

Required Equation:

$\boxed{\bf{ v = u + at}}$

Answer:

By substituting values in the equation, we get:

$\rm \longrightarrow 0 = 35 + ( - 1.2)t \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 0 = 35 - 1.2t \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 35 - 1.2t = 0 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 35- 35 - 1.2t = 0 - 35 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow - 1.2t = - 35 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow \dfrac{ - 1.2t}{ - 1.2} = \dfrac{ - 35}{ - 1.2} \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow t = 29.167 \: s$
