The energy of a wave will remain constant if the wavelength is doubled and the speed is also doubled.

Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Based on the dual nature of waves, Planck's equation states that the energy of the wave is directly proportional to the frequency of the wave. The Planck constant is termed as the proportionality constant.

So, E = hv

It is known that frequency is the ratio of speed of light to wavelength of wave, so the energy equation can be written as

E = \frac{hc}{lambda}

Thus, energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength of wave and directly proportional to the speed of wave. So in order to keep the energy constant, both the wavelength and the speed should be doubled as shown below.

Let  c = 2c and λ = 2λ, then the new energy will be

E'=\frac{hc}{lambda}

Since, c = 2c and lambda = 2 lambda, E' = 2hc/2lambda = E

So the wavelength is doubled and the speed is also doubled to keep the energy of the wave constant.

How many significant figures are in the measurement, 0.005890 g?
pantera1 [17]

4 significant figures. Use a rule called the Atlantic-Pacific rule where if the period is absent (Atlantic), you would start counting the numbers from right to left. If the period is present (Pacific), then start counting the numbers from left to right. Since the period is present, start from 5 and there are 4 digits including 5.

I have 345mL of a 1.5M NaCl solution. If I boil the water until the volume of the solution is 250mL, what will the molarity of t
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
Answer is
C. 2.07 M


For explanation

M1V1 = M2V2

M2 = (M1V1)/V2

M2 = (1.5M x 345ml) / 250 ml

:. M2 = 2.07 M
