Answer:

The true statement is:

d. It is impossible to know which contains more energy.

Explanation:

In this scenario, the frequencies of Photon A and Photon B were not given.  This makes it impossible to know which photon contains more energy than the other.  Note that the amount of energy is directly proportional to the photon's electromagnetic frequency but inversely proportional to the wavelength.  A description of the associated wavelengths was offered, but this description is not enough to help determine the energy of each photon.  In conclusion, the photon's frequency determines its energy level just as the wavelength reduces its energy.

It takes 100,000 years for a plate to move about 2 kilometers. What's the rate of motion in centimeters per year??
Oduvanchick [21]
2km is the same as 2000m which is the same as 200000 cm.
BUT don't make the same mistake as the other answer. This is 200000 cm per 100000 years. Divide 200000 by 100000 to get <em>2 cm per year.</em>
Hope this helps!
