- An FM radio station broadcasts at a frequency of 101.3 MHz. What is the wavelength, in meters and nanometers, of this radiation?arrow_forwardA particular microwave oven delivers 750 watts. (A watt is a unit of power, which is the joules of energy delivered, or used, per second.) If the oven uses microwave radiation of wavelength 12.6 cm, how many photons of this radiation are required to heat 1.00 g of water 1.00C, assuming that all of the photons are absorbed?arrow_forwardConsider burning ethane gas, C2H6 in oxygen (combustion) forming CO2 and water. (a) How much energy (in J) is produced in the combustion of one molecule of ethane? (b) What is the energy of a photon of ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 12.6 nm? (c) Compare your answers for (a) and (b).arrow_forward
- In X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, a material can be analyzed for its constituent elements by radiating the material with short-wavelength X rays, which induce the atoms to emit longer-wavelength X rays characteristic of those atoms. Tungsten, for example, emits characteristic X rays of wavelength 0.1476 nm. If an electron has an equivalent wavelength, what is its kinetic energy?arrow_forward6.86 An excited He+ ion returns to the ground state by emitting a series of three photons, with wavelengths of 26 nm, 469 nm, and 1014 nm. The process is represented in the energy level diagram below. Which arrow (A, B, or C) in the diagram represents the 1014-nm light?arrow_forward
