A photon has a wavelength of approximately 2 x 10-7m. What is the energy, in joules, associated with this photon? A. More information is needed.
B. 4x 10-32
C. 1.5 x 1015
D. 1x 10-18
E. 1x 1018 SUBMIT

E = 9.95×10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength = 2×10⁻⁷ m

Energy of photon = ?

Solution:

Formula:

E = hc/λ

h = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js

c = 3×10⁸ m/s

by putting values,

E =  6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js × 3×10⁸ m/s / 2×10⁻⁷ m

E = 19.89×10⁻²⁶Jm / 2×10⁻⁷ m

E = 9.95×10⁻¹⁹ J

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.
