Answer: Wavelength which represented photons with :

a) Higher energy is 372.1 nm

b) Longer wavelength is 376.4 nm

c) Higher frequency is 372.1 nm

Explanation:

E=h\nu =\frac{hc}{\lamda } (Planck's equation)

h=\text{Planck's constant}=6.62\times 10^{-34}J-s,c=\text{speed of light}=3\times 10^{8}m/s

\lambda = wavelength of the photon with energy E in meters.

\nu = frequency of the photon with energy E in hertz.

For first spectral line:

\lambda _1=372.1 nm=372.1\times 10^{-9} m(1nm=1\times 10^{-9} m)

E_1=\frac{hc}{\lambda_1}=\frac{(6.62\times 10^{-34}J-s)(3\times 10^{8}m/s)}{372.1\times 10^{-9} m}=5.33\times 10^{-19} joules

\nu _1=\frac{c}{\lambda _1}=\frac{3\times 10^{8}m/s}{372.1\times 10^{-9} m}=0.08 Hertz

For second spectral line:

\lambda _2=376.4 nm=376.4\times 10^{-9} m(1nm=1\times 10^{-9} m)

E_2=\frac{hc}{\lambda_2}=\frac{(6.62\times 10^{-34}J-s)(3\times 10^{8}m/s)}{376.4\times 10^{-9} m}=5.27\times 10^{-19} joules

\nu _2=\frac{c}{\lambda _2}=\frac{3\times 10^{8}m/s}{376.4\times 10^{-9} m}=0.07 Hertz

A balloon contains 2.0 L of air at 101.5 kPa . You squeeze the balloon to a volume of 0.25 L.
8_murik_8 [283]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

812 kPa

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • According to Boyle's law pressure and volume of a fixed mass are inversely proportional at constant absolute temperature.
  • Mathematically, P\alpha \frac{1}{V}

At varying pressure and volume;

P1V1=P2V2

In this case;

Initial volume, V1 = 2.0 L

Initial pressure, P1 = 101.5 kPa

Final volume, V1 = 0.25 L

We are required to determine the new pressure;

P2=\frac{P1V1}{V2}

Replacing the known variables with the values;

P2=\frac{(101.5)(2.0L)}{0.25L}

           = 812 kPa

Thus, the pressure of air inside the balloon after squeezing is 812 kPa
