Answer:
(a) The energy of the photon is 1.632 x J.
(b) The wavelength of the photon is 1.2 x m.
(c) The frequency of the photon is 2.47 x Hz.
Explanation:
Let;
= -13.60 ev
= -3.40 ev
(a) Energy of the emitted photon can be determined as;
-
= -3.40 - (-13.60)
= -3.40 + 13.60
= 10.20 eV
= 10.20(1.6 x )
-
= 1.632 x
Joules
The energy of the emitted photon is 10.20 eV (or 1.632 x Joules).
(b) The wavelength, λ, can be determined as;
E = (hc)/ λ
where: E is the energy of the photon, h is the Planck's constant (6.6 x Js), c is the speed of light (3 x
m/s) and λ is the wavelength.
10.20(1.6 x ) = (6.6 x
* 3 x
)/ λ
λ =
= 1.213 x
Wavelength of the photon is 1.2 x m.
(c) The frequency can be determined by;
E = hf
where f is the frequency of the photon.
1.632 x = 6.6 x
x f
f =
= 2.47 x Hz
Frequency of the emitted photon is 2.47 x Hz.
The weight of the shuttle is
Explanation:
The weight of an object on Earth is the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the object.
The magnitude of the weight of an object is given by:
where
m is the mass of the object
is the acceleration of gravity on Earth's surface
And the direction is downward (towards the Earth's centre).
For the shuttle in this problem, its mass is
So, its weight is
Note that while the mass of an object (m) does not change, its weight (W) changes according to the location, since the value of g can be different at different location (for example, on the Moon, the value of g is about 1/6 the value of g on the Earth).
