Coriolis effect

That’s what I remember from whenever I was in that unit.

The answer should be The Coriolis Effect because that is the #1 main cause of ocean currents.

Answer:

a) $\lambda=2.95x10^{-6}m$

b) infrared region

Explanation:

Photon energy is the "energy carried by a single photon. This amount of energy is directly proportional to the photon's electromagnetic frequency and is inversely proportional to the wavelength. If we have higher the photon's frequency then we have higher its energy. Equivalently, with longer the photon's wavelength, we have lower energy".

Part a

Is provide that the smallest amount of energy that is needed to dissociate a molecule of a material on this case 0.42eV. We know that the energy of the photon is equal to:

$E=hf$

Where h is the Planck's Constant. By the other hand the know that $c=f\lambda$ and if we solve for f we have:

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}$

If we replace the last equation into the E formula we got:

$E=h\frac{c}{\lambda}$

And if we solve for $\lambda$ we got:

$\lambda =\frac{hc}{E}$

Using the value of the constant $h=4.136x10^{-15} eVs$ we have this:

$\lambda=\frac{4.136x10^{15}eVs (3x10^8 \frac{m}{s})}{0.42eV}=2.95x10^{-6}m$

$\lambda=2.95x10^{-6}m$

Part b

If we see the figure attached, with the red arrow, the value for the wavelenght obtained from part a) is on the infrared region, since is in the order of $10^{-6}m$

How do vibrations cause sound waves

Mariulka [41]

sound waves are a type of wave sometimes called compression waves, vibrations with enough of an amplitude can compress and decompress the air adjacent to the object causing the waves to form.
