Answer:

Proxima Centuri is 9 orders of magnitude further from New York compared to Perth

Explanation:

Distance of Proxima Centuri to New York = 4 × 10^16 meters

Distance of Proxima Centuri to Perth = 11000 miles

Since 1 mile = 1609 meters, distance to Perth in meters = 11000 × 1609

Distance to Perth = 17699000 = 1.7699 × 10^7 meters

Order of magnitude of the distances of Proxima Centuri to New York and Perth = 10^16/10^7

Order of magnitude = 10^9

Therefore, Proxima Centuri is 9 orders of magnitude further from New York compared to Perth.

A microwave can have a frequency of 3.8 X 1010Hz. How much energy does this microwave give off in joules?
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

2.52 x 10^{-23} J

Explanation:

The energy given off by the microwave can be determined by the application of Planck's energy formula:

E = hf

where: E is the required energy, h is Planck's constant (6.626 x 10^{-34}m^{2}Kg/s), and f is the frequency (3.8 x 10^{10} Hz).

So that;

E = 6.626 x 10^{-34} x 3.8 x 10^{10}

  = 2.51788 x 10^{-23}

Therefore, the energy released by the wave is 2.52 x 10^{-23} J.
