We have that according to the quantum theory from Planck, E=h*f where h is a constant and f is the frequency, thus B is correct. Let's analyze the other choices: The speed of light in vacuum is irrelevant to the energy of the photon. The instensity of a light source is correlated to the amount of photons in that light beam but it does not affect individual photons. Finally, if l is the wavelength of light, l*f=c. Substituting this in the first equation we see that photon energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength.

A 210 Ohm resistor uses 9.28 W of
IgorLugansk [536]
  • Resistance=R=210Ohm
  • Power=9.28W=P

Current=I

\boxed{\sf P=I^2R}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2=\dfrac{P}{R}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2=\dfrac{9.28}{210}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2\approx0.04

\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\sqrt{0.04}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\sqrt{\dfrac{4}{100}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\dfrac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{100}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\dfrac{2}{10}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx0.2A

A weight lifter lifts a dumbbell a certain height in 2.0 s, while a competitor does the same workin 1.0 s. Compared to the power
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

a. one-half as great

Explanation:

The power developed by the first lifter is one-half as great as that of the second person.

  Power is defined as the rate at which work is done;

          Power  = \frac{workdone}{time}

Since the two lifters do the same work at different time, let us estimate their power;

       P₁ = \frac{workdone}{2}                     P₂ = \frac{workdone }{1}

   We see that for P₁, power is half of the work done whereas in P₂ power is the same as the work done.

Therefore,

           The power of the first weight lifter is one-half the second lifter.

If you wanted the pitch of a horn to drop relative to an observer, which way would you move the horn, relative to where that obs
Vladimir [108]
We assume that horn releases sound of constant frequency. In order for observer to observe different frequency either horn or observer or both must move.

This happens due to Doppler effect. It states that when position of source of sound and observer relative to each other changes, the observed frequency also changes. If the source emits sound of constant frequency than observed frequency will be either higher or lower than original.

When distance between source and observer increases the observed frequency will be lower. This is because same number of sound waves must cover greater distance so they have greater wavelength.
When distance between source and observer decreases the observed frequency will be higher. This is because same number of sound waves must cover smaller distance so they have smaller wavelength. 

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional meaning when one increases the other drecreases.

From this explanation we can find answer for our question. <span>If we wanted the pitch of a horn to drop relative to an observer we need to move horn away from an observer.</span>
