Answer:
128.21 m
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Initial temperature (θ₁) = 4 °C
Final temperature (θ₂) = 43 °C
Change in length (ΔL) = 8.5 cm
Coefficient of linear expansion (α) = 17×10¯⁶ K¯¹)
Original length (L₁) =.?
The original length can be obtained as follow:
α = ΔL / L₁(θ₂ – θ₁)
17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / L₁(43 – 4)
17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / L₁(39)
17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / 39L₁
Cross multiply
17×10¯⁶ × 39L₁ = 8.5
6.63×10¯⁴ L₁ = 8.5
Divide both side by 6.63×10¯⁴
L₁ = 8.5 / 6.63×10¯⁴
L₁ = 12820.51 cm
Finally, we shall convert 12820.51 cm to metre (m). This can be obtained as follow:
100 cm = 1 m
Therefore,
12820.51 cm = 12820.51 cm × 1 m / 100 cm
12820.51 cm = 128.21 m
Thus, the original length of the wire is 128.21 m
The energy carried by a single photon of frequency f is given by:
where
is the Planck constant. In our problem, the frequency of the photon is
, and by using these numbers we can find the energy of the photon:
The correct answer is “C” ultrasound. Hope this helps!
