Textbook Question
Chapter 18, Problem 13RQ
Humans can see electromagnetic radiation when the wavelength is within the spectrum of visible light. Create a program to determine if a user-specified wavelength [nanometer, nm] is one of the six spectral colors listed in the following chart. Your program should ask the user to enter a wavelength, then indicate in which spectral color the given wavelength falls or state if it is not within the visible spectrum.
Color | Wavelength Interval |
Red | 700-635 nm |
Orange | 635-590 nm |
Yellow | 59Q-560 nm |
Green | 56Q-490 nm |
Blue | 49Q-450 nm |
Violet | 45Q-400 nm |

Qu 3 Nickel (Ni) single crystal turbine blades burn less fuel at higher temperatures because blades are grown on [110] closed packed direction. Nickel (Ni) at 20°C is FCC, and has an atomic radius, R, of 0.125 nm. Draw a reduced-sphere unit cell for this crystal and draw and label the vector [I 10], starting from the origin (0, 0, 0).
a) Calculate the length of the vector [| 10] in nanometers. Express your answer in nanometers to one significant figure.
b) Calculate the linear density of Nickel in the [| 1 0] direction in [atom/nm]. Express your answer in atoms/nm to one significant figure.
