The energy of a photon is E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}E = h c λ where c is the speed of light and h is a constant known as Planck's cons

tant. If a red photon has twice the wavelength of a violet photon, then the energy of the red photon is the energy of the violet photon. This shows that short-wavelength photons carry proportionally energy than long-wavelength photons.

Answer: As a red photon has a twice of the wavelegth to the violet photon then the red photon has half energy of the violet photon.

Explanation: In order to explain the above statement we have to consider the Plack postulate where the energy of photons depend directely of the frequency . As the wavelength and frequency are related by :

c= λ*υ c is the speed of light,  λ is the wavelength and υ the frequency of the photon

so the energy of  photons are inversely proportional to the wavelength.

As a consequence twice wavelengtht means half energy for the photon.

Consider two samples of gas. Sample A consists of n moles and is kept at temperature T in container of volume V. Gas B consists
MrRissso [65]

Answer: e. P/2

Explanation:

For ideal gases, we have the relation:

P*V = n*R*T

where:

n =  number of mols

R = Gas constant

T = temperature

V = volume

P = pressure.

We know that for sample A, we have n moles, a temperature T and a volume V, then the pressure of this sample will be:

Pa = (n*R*T)/V.

For sample B, we have:

n/2 moles, temperature T/2 and a volume V/2, then the pressure will be:

Pb = (n/2)*R*(T/2)*(2/V) = (n*R*T/V)*(2/4)

and:

(n*R*T/V) = Pa

Then we can replace it and we get:

Pb = (n*R*T/V)*(2/4) = Pa*(2/4) = Pa*(1/2) = Pa/2.

Then the correct option is e.

In an iron rod the particles vibrate. If one end of an iron rod is heated, the vibrating particles transfer energy to neighborin
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Conduction

Explanation:

Conduction. When a substance is heated, its particles gain internal energy and move more vigorously. The particles bump into nearby particles and make them vibrate more. This passes internal energy through the substance by conduction , from the hot end to the cold end.

Fill in the chart below to identify the name of the process that explains the state of change indicated, the states of matter be
yuradex [85]

1.  Changing from solid to a liquid is called melting / fusion and happen

at the melting/ fusion point.

Reason: melting point is a temperature at which a solid melt and converts into liquid by providing heat.

2. Changing from liquid to gas is called evaporation/boiling and happens at the evaporation/boiling point.

Reason. Evaporation is a process in which molecules from surface of liquid convert into gas.

3.   Changing from a gas to a liquid  is called condensation and happens at the condensation point.

Reason : In condensation process  gas particles converts into liquid droplets.

4. Changing from liquid to a solid is called freezing and happens at the freezing point.

Reason : Freezing is a process that convert liquid into soilid state by decreasing temperature of that specific liquid,
