Green light has a wavelength of 550nm. What is the frequency of a photon of green light?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vikki [24]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:- Frequency is 5.4*10^1^4Hz .

Solution:- frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other and the equation used is:

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

where, \nu is frequency, c is speed of light and \lambda is the wavelength.

Speed of light is 3.0*10^8m/s .

We need to convert the wavelength from nm to m.

( 1nm=10^-^9m )

550nm(\frac{10^-^9m}{1nm})

= 5.5*10^-^7m

Now, let's plug in the values in the equation to calculate the frequency:

\nu =\frac{3.0*10^8m.s^-^1}{5.5*10^-^7m}

= 5.4*10^1^4s^-^1 or 5.4*10^1^4Hz

since, 1s^-^1=1Hz

So, the frequency of the green light photon is 5.4*10^1^4Hz .

A car at rest ends accelerates for 12 seconds. After this time the car is going 36 m/s. What was its acceleration?
Zigmanuir [339]

Acceleration is defined as velocity per unit time.

Acceleration=\frac{Velocity}{time}

a=\frac{dv}{dt}

Here, a=acceleartion,

v=velocity=36 m/s

t=time=12 s

a=\frac{dv}{dt}

a=\frac{36}{12}

a=3 ms⁻²

A car at rest ends accelerates for 12 seconds. After this time the car is going 36 m/s. So acceleration that is a=3 ms⁻².

A corpse discovered in the desert at 5:00 PM was found to have larvae from the blow fly species Phormia regina that had just dev
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

12.19 hours prior to discovery was the corpse placed in the desert.

Explanation:

Heat required for fly eggs to develop into first instar larvae = Exposure\,time\times temperature

From the given,

Exposure time = 16 hrs

Temperature = 27 C

=16\times 27 = 427.2^{o}C

The day time exposed hours is 10 hrs.-(7.00am-5.00pm)

=10\times 37.8 = 378^{o}C

So, the extra heat  = 427.2-378= 49.2

The addition heat divided by average temperature.

Average temperature = 22.4 C

=\frac{49.2}{22.4}= 2.19 hrs

So, the total time exposed is night time hours to day time hours.

= 10+2.19 = 12.19 hrs.

Therefore, 12.19 hours prior to discovery was the corpse placed in the desert.

What happens when sodium and chlorine react to make table salt <br><br> Please help
Julli [10]
When a sodium atom transfers an electron to a chlorine atom, forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-), both ions have complete valence shells, and are energetically more stable. The reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat energy.

An experimental spacecraft consumes a special fuel at a rate of 372 L/min. The density of the fuel is 0.730 g/mL and the standar
Karolina [17]

Explanation:

First, we will calculate fuel consumption is as follows.

         372 L/min \times 1000 ml/L \times 0.730 g/ml \times \frac{1}{60} min/s

           = 4526 g/s

Now, we will calculate the power as follows.

        Power = Fuel consumption rate × -enthalpy of combustion

                    = 4526 g/s \times -26.5 kJ/g

                    = 1.19 \times 10^{5} kW

Thus, we can conclude that maximum power (in units of kilowatts) that can be produced by this spacecraft is 1.19 \times 10^{5} kW.
