I'm sure you've noticed that an airplane high in the sky, far away
from you, looks like it's moving very slowly. At the same time,
somebody passing you on a skateboard whizzes past you at
high speed. The farther away something is from you, the slower
it appears to move.
The nearest star outside the solar system is almost 32 thousand times
as far away from us as the farthest visible planet (Saturn) is, and all of the
other stars are farther than that.
That's why you have to wait a few thousand years before you notice
that the shape of a constellation has changed.
To put it a slightly different way . . . Everything is in motion. The motion is
more noticeable for nearby things, and less noticeable for farther-away things.
Objects within our solar system are the only ones near enough so that a human
lifetime is a long enough period in which to notice the change in their position.
Even Pluto moves less then 1.5° against the 'background' stars in a whole year.
This all makes me feel small. How about you ?
3NaOH + FeCl3 → 3NaCl + Fe(OH)3
<span>The answer is: ultraviolet
The energy (E) of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency f, by Planck's
formula: E = hf, where h is Planck's constant (6.625 * 10**-34 joule-second).
The frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength w by: f = c/w, where
c is the speed of light, 3.0 * 10**8 meters per second.
Combine these formulas and we see that the energy is inversely proportional to
the wavelength by: E = hc/w
If the energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength, a photon with twice the
energy has half the wavelength of our 442-nm. photon in this example.
So its wavelength is 221 nm. which is in the ultraviolet range.</span>

Answer:
<h2>
E = 2.8028*10⁻¹⁹ Joules</h2>
Explanation:
The minimum energy needed to eject electrons from a metal with a threshold frequency fo is expressed as E = hfo
h = planck's constant
fo = threshold frequency
Given the threshold frequency fo = 4.23×10¹⁴ s⁻¹
h = 6.626× 10⁻³⁴ m² kg / s
Substituting this value into the formula to get the energy E
E = 4.23×10¹⁴ * 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴
E = 28.028*10¹⁴⁻³⁴
E = 28.028*10⁻²⁰
E = 2.8028*10⁻¹⁹ Joules
