Rank the following photons in order of their energy, from greatest photon energy to least photon energy. If the photon energy is the same in any two situations, state this. Explain how you made your ranking. The speed of light is c = 3.00 ´ 108 m/s.
(i) a photon with wavelength 600 nm = 6.00 ´ 10–7 m
(ii) a photon with wavelength 300 nm = 3.00 ´ 10–7 m
(iii) a photon with frequency 6.00 ´ 1014 Hz
(iv) a photon with frequency 3.00 ´ 1014 Hz
Please show your work
Here, We need to know how the energy is related with frequency and wavelength. The question one and two represent the relationship. As wavelength and frequency are given, by using the equestion one and two the energy has been found out.After finding the energy, on the basis of value of energy the order from greatest to least has been worked out.
