Question 4

Which equation correctly relates the energy of a photon ($$E) to $$its frequency ($$
u$$)?

Accepted Answer

$$E = h
u$$

Question 5

A medical X-ray has a frequency of $$9.55 	imes 10$$^{17}$$ Hz. What is its wavelength in meters? (c = 2.998$$ 	imes $$10^8 m/s)$$

Accepted Answer

$$3.14 	imes 10$$^{-10}$$ m

Question 6

Question 7

Using the Balmer-Rydberg equation, what is the wavelength (in nm) of the photon emitted when an electron in a hydrogen atom transitions from $$n_i = 4 to$$ $$n_f = 2$$? ($$R_H = 1.097 	imes 10^7$ m$$^{-1}$$)

Accepted Answer

486 nm

Question 8
