Answer

(a) $4.795\times 10^{13}Hz$ (b) $3.18\times 10^{-20}J$

Work Step by Step

(a) We can find the required frequency as $f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{K}{m}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{1215}{1.340\times 10^{-26}}}$ $f=4.795\times 10^{13}Hz$ (b) We know that $E=hf$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $E=(6.625\times 10^{-34})(4.795\times 10^{13})$ $E=3.18\times 10^{-20}J$
