Answer:

Compared to the absorbed light, the frequency of the re-emitted light is <em>the same</em>.

Explanation:

The reason to why the light energy that is momentarily absorbed in glass and then re-emitted, compared to the absorbed light, the frequency of the re-emitted light is <em>the same</em> is because the wavelength of the absorbed light and the re-emitted light is the same. The energy carried by an electromagnetic wave is proportional to the frequency of the wave. The wavelength and frequency of the wave are connected via the speed of light:

<em>c = fλ</em>

<em>where</em>

  • <em>c is the speed of light</em>
  • <em>f is the frequency of light </em>
  • <em>λ is the wavelength of the light</em>

Though light does not have mass, it does have energy and it's energy is conserved. Therefore, in the conservation of energy, the energy of the absorbed light must be equal to the re-emitted light. This is why the frequency of the re-emitted light is <em>the same</em> as the frequency of the absorbed light.

A kettle is rated at 1 kW, 220 V. Calculate the working resistance of the kettle.
Anna [14]

Explanation:

Power of electric kettle, P = 1 kW

Voltage, V = 220 V

(a) Electric power is given by the formula as follows :

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

R is resistance

R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(220)^2}{10^3}\\\\R=48.4\ \Omega

(b) When connected to a 220 V supply, it takes 3 minutes for the water in the kettle to reach boiling point.

Energy supplied is given by :

E=P\times t

P is power, P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

E=\dfrac{V^2}{R}t\\\\E=\dfrac{(220)^2}{48.4}\times 180\\\\E=180000\ J\\\\E=180\ kJ

Which is worse, failing or never trying?
guapka [62]
Personally I feel that never trying is worse because at least when you fail you know what you need to improve on and that way you at least get some closure. Where as when you never try it you would never know whether or not you were able to do it
