8 0

Answer:

<em>765,000Joules or 765kJ</em>

Explanation:

The Quantity of heat required is expressed as;

Q = (mcΔt)al + (mcΔt)water

m is the mass

c is specific heat capacity

Δt is the change in temperature

Q = (3(900)(90-5)) + (1.5(4200)(90-5))

Q = 2700*85 + 6300*85

Q = (2700+6300)85

Q = 9000*85

<em>Q = 765,000</em>

<em>Hence the amount of energy needed is 765,000Joules or 765kJ</em>

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:The human eye is sensitive to yellow-green light having a frequency of about 5.5*10^{14} ... What is the energy in joules of the photons associated with this light? ... As the wavelength and frequency of a wave are related, we can find the energy ... In order to find this value, we need Planck's Constant, h=6.626×10−34 J⋅s h ...

Looking straight downward into a rain puddle whose surface is covered with a thin film of gasoline, you notice a swirling patter
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

 

Explanation:

Point beneath you forms a beautiful iridescent green

refractive index of Gasoline n=1.38

Wavelength of Green light is \lambda =540\ nm

Here light first traverse from air(n=1) to gasoline , it reflects from  front surface of gasoline(n=1.38) so it suffers a phase change. After this light reflect from rear surface of gasoline and there is a decrease in refractive index(n=1.38 to n=1.33), so there is no phase change occurs .

For constructive interference

2t=(m+\frac{1}{2})\cdot \frac{\lambda }{n}

here t= thickness of gasoline film

n=refractive index

for m=0

t=\frac{\lambda }{4n}

t=\frac{540}{4\times 1.38}

t=97.82\approx 98\ nm

The energy required to dislodge electrons from cesium metal via the photoelectric effect is 207 kJ/mol . What wavelength (in nm)
ki77a [65]

Answer:

So wavelength in nm will be \lambda =0.956\times 10^{-19}nm    

Explanation:

We have given that the energy = 207 KJ/mol =207\times 10^3j/mol

Speed of light c=3\times 10^8m/sec

Plank's constant h=6.6\times 10^{-34}J-s

According to plank's rule energy of the photon is given by

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }

207\times 10^3=\frac{6.6\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{\lambda }

\lambda =0.956\times 10^{-28}m

So wavelength in nm will be \lambda =0.956\times 10^{-19}nm
