A quantum of electromagnetic radiation is called photon, and the energy of a photon is given by
E=hf (1)
where h is the Planck constant and f is the frequency of the photon.

In this problem, the photon energy is
E=2.0 keV=2.0 \cdot 10^3 eV=3.2 \cdot 10^{-16} J
If we re-arrange equation (1), we can find the energy of the photon:
f= \frac{E}{h}= \frac{3.2 \cdot 10^{-16} J}{6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} Js}=4.8\cdot 10^{17} Hz

i throw a tennis ball straight down from the roof of a building 400 meters tall.id it leaves my hand at 10 m/s, how fast will it
Sidana [21]

consider the motion of the tennis ball in downward direction

Y = vertical displacement = 400 m

a = acceleration = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial velocity of the ball at the top of building = 10 m/s

v = final velocity of the ball when it hits the ground = ?

using the kinematics equation

v² = v²₀ + 2 a Y

inserting the values

v² = 10² + 2 (9.8) (400)

v = 89.11 m/s

When a wave is acted upon by an external damping force what happens to the energy of the wave
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

A-the energy of the wave decreases gradually

Explanation:

when a wave is acted upon by an external damping force the energy of the wave decreases gradually.

The energy degrades into the form of heat which is considered to be of less value and use. The reason is because it disperses and spreads more widely.

So therefore it end up as heat with a little sound but that is close to none because that too disperses into heat i.e. decreased form of energy.
