Suppose an oven's radiation wavelength is 0.125 m. a container with 350.00 g of water was placed in the oven, and the temperatur

e of the water rose from 20.0°c to 80.0°c. how many photons of this microwave radiation were required to heat the water? (assume that all the energy from the radiation was used to raise the temperature of the water.) the specific heat of water is 4.18 j/g°c.

The heat (energy) needed to raise the temperature of the water is given by
Q=m C_S (T_f - T_i)=(350.0 g)(4.18 J/gC)(80C-20C)=87780 J

The wavelength of the radiation of the oven is \lambda=0.125 m, so the energy of a single photon of this radiation is
E=h \frac{c}{\lambda}=(6.6 \cdot 10^{-34}J) \frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{0.125 m}=1.6 \cdot 10^{-24} J

So, the number of photons required to heat the water is the total energy absorbed by the water divided by the energy of a single photon:
N= \frac{Q}{E}= \frac{87780 J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-24}J}=  5.5 \cdot 10^{28} photons

The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2, towards the Earth. Rain falling from an altitude of 9,000 m would fall for about 1
Anna [14]

Answer:

the final speed of the rain is 541 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

height of fall of the rain, h = 9,000 m

time of the rain fall, t = 1.5 minutes = 90 s

Determine the initial velocity of the rain, as follows;

h = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\9000 = 90u +  \frac{1}{2} (9.8)(90)^2\\\\9000 = 90u + 39690\\\\90u = -30690\\\\u = \frac{-30690}{90} \\\\u = -341 \ m/s

The final speed of the rain is calculated as;

v^2 = u^2 + 2gh\\\\v^2 = (-341)^2 + 2(9.8\times 9000)\\\\v^2 = 292681\\\\v = \sqrt{292681} \\\\v = 541 \ m/s

Therefore, the final speed of the rain is 541 m/s.
