Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum have the highest level of photon energy

Physics
1 answer:
Pani-rosa [81]2 years ago
4 0
The energy carried by one photon is directly proportional to its
frequency.  So the photon energy is greatest for the electromagnetic
waves with the highest frequency / shortest wavelengths. 

That's why when you get past visible light and on up through ultraviolet,
X-rays, and gamma rays, the radiation becomes dangerous ==> each
photon carries enough energy to tear electrons away from their atoms,
ripping molecules apart and damaging cells.

The photon with the highest energy is a gamma-ray photon.

A brick is dropped with zero initial speed from the roof of a building and strikes the ground in 1.90 s. How tall is the buildin
irinina [24]

Answer:

17.69 m

Explanation:

The time it takes the brick to strike the ground is 1.90 seconds.

We can apply one of Newton's equation of linear motion to find the height of the building:

s = ut + 0.5gt^2

where s = distance (in this case height)

u = initial velocity = 0 m/s

t = time = 1.90 s

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2

Therefore:

s = (0 * 1.9) + (0.5 * 9.8 * 1.9 * 1.9)

s = 0 + 17.68

s = 17.69 m

The height of the building is 17.69 m.
