Question 5
4. Bruce Banner, after administering himself Super Solider Serum, was exposed to high levels
of gamma radiation, with energy on the order of 1.00 x 108 eV.
1.000 eV is equivalent to 1.602 x 10-19 Joules (not exact)
a. Calculate the wavelength (in nm) associated with this radiation.
b. Calculate the frequency (in Hz) associated with this radiation.
c. How many times more energy is contained in this many gamma rays compared to the
microwaves in question 3?
5. Determine if the following are examples of absorption and/or emission of light.
a. A handheld laser device releases a green light when I press the button.
b. I shine the green laser pointer through a purple solution and I do not see the green
laser come out the other side.
c. In some ocean waters, a blue light is observed from an algae bloom caused by
