A source of green laser light has a wavelength of 560nm, what is its frequency? Give your answer to an appropriate number of significant figures and using the correct units.

1.) using the wave speed formula for an electromagnetic wave, c=fλ, (c=3.00x10^8 m/s)

f=c/λ where c=the speed of an electromagnetic wave.

f=(3.00x10^8)/(560x10^-9)= 5.36x10^14 Hz

If a ball of mass 5kg is dropped from rest, how far will it travel in the 3 seconds after it reaches 150m from it's original position? Write down the change in it's total energy after the 3 seconds. (ignoring air resistance)

  1. Calculate the speed the ball is travelling at when it reaches 150m using v= u+ 2ax. 2) Calculate the distance travelled in 3 seconds by an object with a speed of that found...
