The object is moving, so at different times, it has different displacement. I'm guessing that you probably want to know the displacement at the end of the time on the graph ... 5 seconds.

Displacement is the distance and the direction FROM (the position at the beginning) TO (the position at the end).

At the beginning ... time=0 ... the position is 1 meter.

At the end ... time=5 ... the position is zero.

The distance FROM the beginning TO the end is (zero - 1m) . That's <em>-1m </em>.

What is the longest wavelength of radiation with enough energy to break carbon-carbon bonds?

iogann1982 [59]

The longest wavelength of radiation used to break carbon-carbon bonds is 344 nm.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The longest wavelength of radiation can also be stated as the minimum radiation frequency required to cut carbon-carbon bond should be equal to the threshold energy of the carbon-carbon bonds.

The threshold energy will be equal to the binding energy of the carbon-carbon bonds. As it is known that carbon-carbon bonds exhibit a binding energy of 348 kJ/mole, the threshold energy to break it, is determined as followed.

First, we have to convert the energy from kJ/mol to J, i.e., energy for the carbon-carbon molecules,

$\text { Energy } = \frac{348 \mathrm{KJ} / \mathrm{mol}}{6.023 \times 10^{23} \text { photons }} \times 1 \text { mole } \times 1000 = 57.77 \times 10^{-20} = 5.78 \times 10^{-19} J$
