Answer:

False

Explanation:

As we know that, the Balmer series gives the n values as,

n_{i}=2.

[tex]n_{f}=3,4,5,.....\infty.

Now the value of wavelength can be calculated as,

\frac{1}{\lambda}=R(\frac{1}{n_{i} }-\frac{1}{n_{f} } )z^{2}.

Here, R=109677 cm^{-1}.

And n_{f}=3.

Now,

\frac{1}{\lambda}=109677 cm^{-1}(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}).

Therefore,

\lambda=\frac{6}{109677} cm\\\lambda=547\times 10^{-9} m\\ \lambda=547 nm

Therefore, the wavelength of Balmer series lies in visible region which is 547 nm.

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Balmer series produce visible light in the hydrogen atom spectrum.

Balmer series corresponds to a transition from higher energy level to an energy level corresponding to principal quantum number, n = 2.

This transition results in the hydrogen atom spectra of 4 different wavelengths of the visible light which includes 434 nm, 410 nm, 486 nm and 656 nm.

Its not Balmer series that produces all wavelengths of light of infrared emission but its Paschen series that produces all wavelengths in the infra red region of the hydrogen atom spectrum

Why does a force perpendicular to an objects velocity change the direction of the velocity but not its magnitude
inna [77]

Answer:

According to your question although I think an object undergoing uniform circular motion is moving with a constant speed. Nevertheless, it is accelerating due to its change in direction. The direction of the acceleration is inwards,therefore a force perpendicular to an objects velocity change the direction of the velocity but not its magnitude.

a) What is the average useful power output of a person who does6.00×10^6Jof useful work in 8.00 h? (b) Working at this rate, how
NARA [144]

Answer:

208.33 W

141.26626 seconds

Explanation:

E = Energy = 6\times 10^6\ J

t = Time taken = 8 h

m = Mass = 2000 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height of platform = 1.5 m

Power is obtained when we divide energy by time

P=\frac{E}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{6\times 10^6}{8\times 60\times 60}\\\Rightarrow P=208.33\ W

The average useful power output of the person is 208.33 W

The energy in the next part would be the potential energy

The time taken would be

t=\frac{E}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{mgh}{208.33}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2000\times 9.81\times 1.5}{208.33}\\\Rightarrow t=141.26626\ s

The time taken to lift the load is 141.26626 seconds

How fast should a moving clock travel if it is to be observed by a stationary observer as running at one-half its normal rate?A)
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Let the speed is v.

\Delta t = \gamma \Delta t'\\\\\Delta t = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}\times \frac{\Delta t}{2}\\\\\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}} =\frac{1}{2}\\\\1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}=\frac{1}{4}\\\\\frac{3}{4}c^2 = v^2\\\\v = 0.87 c

Option (D) is correct.
