What is the wavelength if the frequency is 29.2 hz?

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer : The wavelength is $1.027\times 10^7m$

Solution : Given,

frequency = 29.2 Hz

Formula used :

$\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}\\\lambda=\frac{c}{\nu}$

where,

$\nu$ = frequency

$\lambda$ = wavelength

c = speed of light = $3\times 10^8m/s$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the wavelength.

$\lambda=\frac{3\times 10^8m/s}{29.2Hz}=0.1027\times 10^8m=1.027\times 10^7m$ $(1Hz=1s^{-1})$

Therefore, the wavelength is $1.027\times 10^7m$

The specific heat of copper is 0.093 cal/g0C. Calculate the temperature change that occurs if 28 g of copper at 25 0C absorbs 58

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

22.27 °C = ΔT

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m × c × ΔT

Given data:

mass = 28 g

heat absorbed = 58 cal

specific heat of copper = 0.093 cal/g .°C

temperature change =ΔT= ?

Solution:

Q = m × c × ΔT

58 cal = 28 g × 0.093 cal /g.°C × ΔT

58 cal = 2.604 cal.°C × ΔT

58 cal / 2.604 cal .°C = ΔT

22.27 °C = ΔT

Ultraviolet radiation and radiation of shorter wavelengths can damage biological molecules because they carry enough energy to b

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

343.98 nm is the longest wavelength of radiation with enough energy to break carbon–carbon bonds.

Explanation:

A typical carbon–carbon bond requires 348 kJ/mol=348000 J/mol

Energy required to breakl sigle C-C bond:E

$E=\frac{348000 J/mol}{6.022\times 10^{23} mol^{-1}}=5.7788\times 10^{-19} J$

$E=\frac{h\times c}{\lambda}$

where,

E = energy of photon

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}Js$

c = speed of light = $3\times 10^8m/s$

$\lambda$ = wavelength of the radiation

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the energy of the photons.

$\lambda =\frac{(6.63\times 10^{-34}Js)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)}{5.7788\times 10^{-19} J}$

$\lambda =3.4398\\times 10^{-7}m=343.98 nm$

$1 m = 10^{9} nm$

343.98 nm is the longest wavelength of radiation with enough energy to break carbon–carbon bonds.
