A laser used in eye surgery to fuse detached retinas produces radiation with a wavelength of 6.4 x 10^-7 m. What is the frequenc

y of the laser?
Speed of light = 3.00 x 10^8 m/s

(Hint: Remember to round your answer to the lowest number of significant figures.)


(Speed of light) / (Wavelength) = Frequency

Answer:

ν ≈ 4.7 × 10¹⁴ Hz

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chem</u>

Speed of Light = Wavelength times Frequency

  • c = λν
  • c = 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

λ = 6.4 × 10⁻⁷ m

<u>Step 2: Solve for ν </u>

3.0 × 10⁸ = 6.4 × 10⁻⁷ · ν

ν = 4.6875 × 10¹⁴ Hz

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>We are given 2 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules.</em>

4.6875 × 10¹⁴ Hz ≈ 4.7 × 10¹⁴ Hz

Which statement best describes the collisions of gas particles according to the kinetic-molecular theory?​
allochka39001 [22]

B. As particles travel in straight lines, their paths sometimes meet, and then they bounce apart with no gain or loss of energy.

Explanation:

The best statement that describes the collision of gas particles according to the kinetic-molecular theory is that as particles travel in straight lines, their paths sometimes meet and then they bounce apart with no gain or loss of energy.

  • The kinetic molecular theory is used to explain the forces between molecules and their energy.

One of the postulate suggests that, when molecules collide with each other, or with the wall of the container, there is no loss or gain of energy.

  • Molecules are independent of one another and that forces of attraction and repulsion between molecules are negligible.

A sample of an unknown substance has a mass of 0.158 kg. If 2,510.0 J of heat is required to heat the substance from 32.0°C to 6
Alexxandr [17]
Specific heat capacity is the required amount of heat per unit of mass in order to raise teh temperature by one degree Celsius. It can be calculated from this equation: H = mCΔT where the H is heat required, m is mass of the substance, ΔT is the change in temperature, and C is the specific heat capacity.

H = m<span>CΔT
2501.0 = 0.158 (C) (61.0 - 32.0)

C = 545.8 J/kg</span>·°C

Explain the difference between personal opinion/interpretation and verified observations
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Personal opinion/interpretation are usually firsthand explanation to a phenomenon or problem set. They are usually drawn from logical reasoning and deduction about some event. Most times, they are non-scientific in nature in that they are non-methodical and do not rely on the critical thinking precepts scientific studies are hinged on.

Verified observations are usually drawn from carefully planned experiments. From the results of the experiment, critical decisions can be made.
