Answer:

1.F: About 6*10^14 Hz

2.E: About 4*10^ -19 J

Explanation:

Frequency: We knew that the speed of a wave is its wavelength(λ)* frequency(f, in Hz).  By the wave-particle duality we know we can calculate the frequency of light in the same way. So, c=495nm *f, f=c/495nm=> (299,792,458 m/s) / (4.95*10^-7 m)

=6.05*10^14 /s

Energy: The energy photon contains can be calculate by this formula-- E=hf

f is the frequency and h is Planck's constant which is about 6.62 ×10^-34 *m^2*kg/s (after dimensional analysis ) =6.62*10^ -34 J*s.

So, the energy of a blue photon is (6.05*10^14)*(6.62*10^-34)=40.051*10^-20=  4.051*10^-19 J

joja [24]
To start the control would be import to see how drivers would act with full focus on the road. The subjects should (in order for the only difference to be the phone) is to use the same vehicle same road same weather condition, just obviously one has the phone the other does not. I hope this helps
