Answer:
Explanation:
The energy of a photon is given by:
where
h is the Planck constant
c is the speed of light
is the wavelength of the photon
In this problem, we have a microwave photon with wavelength
Substituting into the equation, we find its energy:
Answer:
a) t = 20 [s]
b) Can't land
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use kinematics equations, it is of great importance to note that when the plane lands it slows down until it reaches rest, ie the final speed will be zero.
a)
where:
Vf = final velocity = 0
Vi = initial velocity = 100 [m/s]
a = desacceleration = 5 [m/s^2]
t = time [s]
Note: the negative sign of the equation means that the aircraft slows down as it stops.
0 = 100 - 5*t
5*t = 100
t = 20 [s]
b)
Now we can find the distance using the following kinematics equation.
x - xo = distance [m]
x -xo = (0*20) + (0.5*5*20^2)
x - xo = 1000 [m]
1000 [m] = 1 [km]
And the runaway is 0.8 [km], therefore the jetplane needs 1 [km] to land. So the jetpalne can't land
