Hello!
If light on the wavelength spectrum has an energy of 1.8 eV and microwaves have an energy of 1.2 x 10^-4 , does that mean ligth is 15.000 more dangerous than the radiation of a microwave ?

Respuesta :

It is true that the  light is 15.000 more dangerous than the radiation of a microwave.

What is the wavelength?

The wavelength shows the extent or how far the wave travels. Now we know that the energy of the wave can be use to find out how much dangerous the wave is.

Now;

1.6 * 10^-19 J = 1eV

x J = 1.8 eV

x = 1.8 eV * 1.6 * 10^-19 J /1eV

x = 2.88 * 10^-19 J

Now if the energy of the microwaves is 1.2 x 10^-4 J, then it follows that;

2.88 * 10^-19 J/ 1.2 x 10^-4 J,

= 2.4 * 10^15

Hence, it is true that the  light is 15.000 more dangerous than the radiation of a microwave.
