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

A propeller is modeled as five identical uniform rods extending radially from its axis. The length and mass of each rod are 0.77
Vikki [24]
The formula for the rotational kinetic energy is

KE_{rot} = \frac{1}{2}(number \ of\ propellers)( I)( omega)^{2}

where I is the moment of inertia. This is just mass times the square of the perpendicular distance to the axis of rotation. In other words, the radius of the propeller or this is equivalent to the length of the rod. ω is the angular velocity. We determine I and ω first.

I=m L^{2}=(2.67 \ kg) (0.777 \ m)^{2}  =2.07459 \ kgm^{2}

ω = 573 rev/min * (2π rad/rev) * (1 min/60 s) = 60 rad/s

Then,

KE_{rot} =( \frac{1}{2} )(5)(2.07459 \ kgm^{2}) (60\ rad/s)^{2}

KE_{rot} =18,671.31 \ J

Joe is attempting to ramp his bicycle over a row of burning tires. If the ramp has a launch angle of 20 degrees, and Joe can ped
Luden [163]
Answer is 6 tires.

This is a projectile question.

First make sure units are consistent - express speed in m/s.

20 km/h = 20000m / 3600 s = 5.56 m/s

Assume the takeoff point of the ramp is at ground level (height, h, = 0m). We need to determine how long Joe is in the air, and use that time to calculate the horizontal distance he traveled.

Joe is traveling 5.56 m/s on a ramp angled at 20 degrees. There are vertical and horizontal components to his speed:

Vertical speed = 5.56sin20 = 1.90 m/s
Horizontal speed = 5.56cos20 = 5.22 m/s

An easy way to proceed is to calculate the time it takes for Joe’s vertical speed to reach 0m/s - this represents the time when Joe is at his maximum height and is therefore halfway through the trip. Double whatever time this is to find the total time of the trip. Remember he is decelerating due to gravity:

Time to peak:
a = Δv / Δt
-9.8 = -1.9 / Δt
Δt = 0.19s

Total trip time:
0.19 x 2 = 0.38s

Now that we have the total tome Joe is in the air, we can find the horizontal distance he traveled:

v = d / t
5.22 = d / 0.38
d = 1.98m

Now divide this total distance by the length of an individual tire to find the number of tires he will clear:

1.98 / 0.3 = 6.6 tires

Therefore he can jump 6 tires safely (he will land in the middle of the 7th tire).

Lots of steps I know but just try to think of the situation and keep track of the vertical and horizontal things!
