The plot below shows the kinetic energy of ejected electrons as a function of the frequency of radiation done to study the photoelectric effect. Calculate the frequency at point A in s-1 if it corresponds to light with a wavelength of 756 nm.
At its farthest, the distance from Earth to the sun is 1.52 × 1010 km. If UV light from the sun has a frequency of 3.0 × 1016 Hz. Calculate the number of crests for the wave.
If an electromagnetic wave traveled for 54.6 ns, calculate the distance it traveled.
Heavy elements emit characteristics X-ray when their electrons undergo transitions. Shown below are the wavelengths of x-rays emitted by some elements:
Element Wavelength (Å)
Cr 2.291
Fe 1.937
Co 1.790
Cu 1.542
Mo 0.7107
For each element, calculate the frequency (Hz) of the X-ray emitted.
