Answer:

Energy is found as:

E = 1.987·10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

Energy of a single photon of infrared light can be found by using the following formula:

E=hf

where

E = in Joules

h = Planck's constant = 6.627×10 ⁻³⁴ J

f = frequency in hertz

It can also be written as:

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

where

c = 2.998×10⁸ ms⁻¹

λ = wavelength

Wavelength is given in the question which is:

λ = 1×10⁻⁶m

Substitute all the values in the Energy formula

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\E = \frac{(6.627\cdot10^{-34})(2.998\cdot10^8)}{1\cdot10^{-6}}\\E = 1.987\cdot10^{-19}J

1. The resultant force on a ball is not zero. What will happen to the ball? *
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

it will more and change direction

Explanation:

because the resultant force (R) is not equal zero so may be there is a force greater than the other one and the ball will more in the direction of greater force.

and it can't be remain stationary because R=! 0 .

To calculate the wavelength of a wave, take the wave speed and divide by the frequency of the wave. true or false
Serjik [45]

You said          Wavelength  =  (speed) / (frequency)

Yes, that's a valid equation.

What happens to heat energy after an object is cooled down lolololol asking for my bff
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Heat energy does not cool. Objects cool. Energy is not an object. Now, what happens when an object cools is that it gives off some of its thermal energy by one or more mechanisms: radiation, conduction, or convection. In radiation the energy escaped the object as electromagnetic waves - you see the red hot poker slowly dim as it cools, in conduction the energy is transferred Mechanically by the atoms of the hot object being in physical contact with those of the cool object and in convection the hot material moves to a cooler region where it gives up its heat energy by either radiation or conduction.

Refraction:
Novay_Z [31]
Refraction is caused by any wave crossing the boundary out of one substance and into another one. The two different substances may be no more than two parcels of air at different temperatures.
