A monochromatic beam of light is absorbed by a collection of ground-state hydrogen atoms in such a way that three different wave

lengths are observed when the hydrogen relaxes back to the ground state.
Physics
1 answer:
astra-53 [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

If the absorbed beam is monochromatic (one wavelength) then it excites the H atom to some state n.

When that state decays, some of the atoms may decay to state 1, others to state 2, and still others to state 3

The net energy emitted in such a case would depend on:

n -1, n - 2, n - 3 which would produce 3 different wavelengths

The pressure at the bottom of a full barrel of water is Poriginal. Determine what happens to the pressure when the radius or hei
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

C) Pnew=Poriginal/9

Explanation:

From the given conditions:

Original area, A_o=\pi.r_o\,^2

New area of the barrel bottom panel after increasing by a factor of 3:

r_{new}=3r_o

On increasing the radius the area now becomes:

A_{new}=\pi.(3r_o)^2

A_{new}=9\pi.(r_o)^2=9A_o

As we know that there will be no increase in the down-force since the height remains constant.

Pressure is given as:

P_{original}=\frac{Force}{A_o}

∴New pressure:

P_{new}=\frac{Force}{9A}

\Rightarrow P_{new}=\frac{P_{original}}{9}

A rolling ball will eventually come to a stop. Why does this happen?
Digiron [165]

Answer:

(D) friction from the ground changes the ball's

kinetic energy into heat

Explanation:

When a ball is roll on the ground, the electrons in the atoms on the surface of the ground push against the electrons in the atoms on the surface of your ball that is touching the ground. A rolling ball stops because the surface on which it rolls resists its motion,that is when two surfaces come in contact with each other, the surface of one tends to oppose the motion of the other. A rolling ball stops because of friction.

A 45.0 kg ice skater stands at rest on the ice. A friend tosses the skater a 5.0 kg ball. The skater and the ball then move back
Allushta [10]

Answer:

u = 5 m/s

Explanation:

given,

Mass of ice skater, M = 45 Kg

initial speed = 0 m/s

mass of the ball, m = 5 Kg

velocity of skater and the ball,V = 0.5 m/s

speed of the ball = ?

using conservation of momentum

m u + M u' =( M + m ) V

initial speed of ice skater is zero

5 x u + 45 x 0 =( 45 + 5 ) V

5 u = 50 x 0.5

5 u = 25

u = 5 m/s

hence, the speed of the ball is equal to 5 m/s
