As per the question there are two physical quantities i.e scalar quantity and vector quantity.

A scalar is a physical quantity which requires only magnitude.It does not require any direction for it's complete specification.For instance we may take distance travelled,speed etc.


Unlike a scalar quantity,a vector quantity requires both magnitude as well as direction for it's complete specifications.For instance we may take displacement which is the shortest distance between two points,the velocity which is the speed in a given direction.


Hence a vector and scalar is differentiated by direction.

As per the question,the correct option will be the third option i.e C.

Carlita is right.As per her, both vector and scalar have magnitude,but only vectors have direction which is also true.

C. Both scalar and vectors have magnitude. However, only vectors have direction.

the frequency of a beam of uv light is 1.0 ×10 ^15hz what is the energy in one quantum of this light express it in ev? ​
kap26 [50]

Answer:

4.14 eV

Explanation:

f = 1.0 ×10^15 Hz

h= 6.63×10^-34 J s (  this is called PLANCK 'S CONSTANT)

ENEGY = E = ?

E = hf  ( THIS IS FORMULA FOR ENERGY OF ONE QUANTA OR ONE PHOTON )

E= 6.63×10^-34×1.0 ×10^15

E = 6.63×10^-19 J

As 1eV = 1.6×10^-19 J so changing energy in eV from joules we will divide energy by 1.6×10^-19

hence E in eV = 6.63×10^-19/(1.6×10^-19)

          E = 4.14 eV
