Energy of single uv photon= 7.95 x 10⁻¹⁸ J

Energy of a mole of photons=4788213 J

Explanation:

the energy of a photon is given by E= \frac{h c}{\lambda}

h= planck's constant=6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js

λ= wavelength=25 nm= 25 x 10⁻⁹ m

c= velocity of light= 3 x 10⁸ m/s

so E= \frac{6.626\times10^{-34}(3\times10^{8})}{25\times10^{-9}}

E=7.95 x 10⁻¹⁸ J

so energy of one photon=7.95 x 10⁻¹⁸ J

Energy of one mole of photons= 6.022 x 10²³ (7.95 x 10⁻¹⁸ J)

Energy of one mole of photons=4788213 J

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

E  = -6 \  N/C

Generally given that the electric field is negative it mean that its direction is opposite to that of the force    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The charge on the small object is Q = -4.00 \ nC =  -4.00 *10^{-9} \  C

   The force is  F  =  24  \ nN  =  24 *10^{-9} \  N

    Generally the magnitude of the electric  field is mathematically represented as

       E  =  \frac{F}{Q}

=>    E  =  \frac{ 24 *10^{-9}} {-4 *10^{-9 }}

=>     E  = -6 \  N/C

Generally given that the electric field is negative it mean that its direction is opposite to that of the force
