Answer:

8.01 (10^-10) m

Explanation:

use the Particle in a box equation

E = (n^2) (h^2) / (8 m (L^2))

and energy of a particle as its wavelength equation

h c / lamda = E

combine the equations to get

h c / lamda =  (n^2) (h^2) / (8 m (L^2))

get L alone

L^2 = (2^2 - 1^2) h lamda / 8 m c

the longest wavelength is produced by a jump from the first excited state to the ground so

n = 2 to n = 1

so

L^2 = (n1^2 - n2^2) h lamda / (8 m c)

h = 6.6(10^-34) J*s

c = 3(10^8) m/s

m = 9(10^-31) kg

lamda = 700(10^-9) m

n1 =2

n2=1

igomit [66]

Answer: 4m

Explanation:

Since the angle of incidence of a plane mirror can be anything from 0 to 90°

Assuming that the place is a perfectly square 4×4m room

The incident ray would be 45° for the choir(object) at a 4m distance, this is still within the range of values.

We do not forget also, that the focal length of a plane mirror is infinity, the organist would in fact see farther than 4m if need be. And wider

How much conventional current must you run in a solenoid with radius = 0.05 m and length = 0.39 m to produce a magnetic field in
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Explanation:

radius of the solenoid, r = 0.05 m

length of the solenoid, l = 0.39 m

Magnetic field of the solenoid, B = 2 x 10^-5 T

Number of turns, N = 200

The magnetic field of the solenoid is given by

B=\mu _{0}ni

where, i be the current and n be the number of turns per unit length

n = N / l = 200 / 0.39 = 512.8

2\times 10^{-5}=4 \times 3.14\times 10^{-7}\times 512.8\times i

i = 0.031 A

Use your knowledge of waves to explain why echoes occur. Use your explanation to devise a system to measure distances to objects
german

Explanation:

Echoes occur due to the reflection of sound from any obstacle, but not all the reflected sound waves lead to the phenomenon of echo. For the echo to be heard it actually depends upon the human perception as well, human ears can encounter the difference between the sound wave directly form the source and the reflected sound waves only if there is a minimum time gap of one-tenth of a second. For this time gap in the atmosphere at normal temperature and pressure the obstacle must be at least 7 meters away from the sound source.
