The mass of a neutron is:
$m=1.67 \cdot 10^{-27}kg$
Since we know its speed, we can calculate the neutron's momentum:
$p=mv=(1.67 \cdot 10^{-27}kg)(1.90 \cdot 10^3 m/s)=3.17 \cdot 10^{-24} kg m/s$

The problem says the photon has the same momentum of the neutron, p. The photon momentum is given by
$p= \frac{h}{\lambda}$
where h is the Planck constant, and $\lambda$ is the photon wavelength. If we re-arrange the equation and we use the momentum we found before, we can calculate the photon's wavelength:
$\lambda= \frac{h}{p}= \frac{6.6 \cdot 10^{-34}Js}{3.17 \cdot 10^{-24} kg m/s}=2.08 \cdot 10^{-10} m$

And since we know the photon travels at speed of light c, we can now calculate the photon frequency:
$f= \frac{c}{\lambda}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{2.08 \cdot 10^{-10} m}= 1.44 \cdot 10^{18} Hz$

-first use of geothermal energy occurred more than 10,000 years ago in north america by american paleo-indians

-the first industrial use of geothermal energy began near pisa, italy in late 18th century

-in 1904, italian scientist piero ginori conti invented the first geothermal electric power plant in which steam was used to generate the power

-with the above experiment, the first geothermal plant in usa started in 1922 with a capacity of 250 kilowatts

-however, in 1946 first ground-source geothermal heat pump installed at commonwealth building in portland, oregon

-during the 1960’s, pacific gas and electric began operation of first large scale geothermal power plant in san francisco, producing 11 megawatts

-in 1973, when oil crisis began many countries began looking for renewable energy sources and by 1980’s geothermal heat pumps (ghp) started gaining popularity in order to reduce heating and cooling costs

-as effect of climate change started showing results, governments of various countries joined hands to fight against it, for which kyoto protocol was signed in japan in 1997, laid out emission targets for rich countries and required that they transfer funds and technology to developing countries, 184 countries have ratified it
