Calculate a pendulum's frequency of oscillation (in Hz) if the pendulum completes one cycle in 0.5 s.
Marina86 [1]
Time taken to complete one oscillation for a pendulum is Time Period, T = 0.5 s 
Frequency of the pendulum oscillation = 1 / Time Period => f = 1 / T = 1 / 0.5

Which of the following represents the greatest energy transition from a higher energy level to a lower one?
prohojiy [21]
You need to use Planck's law:
E = h·υ = (h·c)/λ

Without making all the calculations, a fraction is bigger than another when the denominator is smaller. Therefore you need to find the smallest wavelength (λ) which is 450nm.

You could also be helped by colors: in order of decreasing energy, you have blue - green - yellow - red.

In any case, the correct answer is a).
