The energy of the photon emitted when an electron in a mercury atom drops from energy level f to energy level b is 3.06 eV.

<h3>Change in energy level of the electron</h3>

When photons jump from a higher energy level to a lower level, they emit or radiate energy.

The change in energy level of the electrons is calculated as follows;

ΔE = Eb - Ef

ΔE = -2.68 eV - (-5.74 eV)

ΔE = 3.06 eV

Thus, the energy of the photon emitted when an electron in a mercury atom drops from energy level f to energy level b is 3.06 eV.

A certain 60.0 Hz AC power line radiates an electromagnetic wave having a maximum electric field strength of 11.6 kV/m.
yuradex [85]

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of the power line, f = 6 Hz

Value of maximum electric field strength of 11.6 kV/m

(a) The wavelength of this very low frequency electromagnetic wave is given by using relation as :

c=f\lambda

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8\ m/s}{60\ Hz}

\lambda=5\times 10^6\ m

(b) As its can be seen that the wavelength of this wave is very high. It shows that it is a radio wave.

(c) The relation between the maximum magnetic field strength and maximum electric field strength is given by :

B_0=\dfrac{E_0}{c}\\\\B_0=\dfrac{11.6\times 10^3}{3\times 10^8}\\\\B_0=3.86\times 10^{-5}\ T

So, the maximum magnetic field strength is 3.86\times 10^{-5}\ T.

Question 24 1 pts Find the voltage in an extension cord having a 0.0600 22 resistance and through which a 5.00A current is flowi
Neporo4naja [7]

The voltage in the extension cord is 30 V.

The problem above can be solved using ohm's law

⇒ Formula:

V = IR.................. Equation 1

⇒ Where:

  • V = Voltage in the extension cord
  • I = Current flowing through the extension cord
  • R = Resistance of the extension cord.

From the question, I think there was a slight error in the value of the current given it suppose to be 500 A, and not 5.00 A

⇒ Given:

  • I = 500 A
  • R = 0.06 ohms

⇒ Substitute these values into equation 1

  • V = 500(0.06)
  • V = 30 V

Hence the voltage in the extension cord is 30 V

A river flows at 2m/s. The velocity of a ferry relative to the shore is 4m /s at right angle to the current. What is the velocit
monitta

The velocity of the ferry relative to the current is 4.5 m/s.

<h3>Relative velocity</h3>
  • Relative velocity is the velocity of a body as observed from the reference point of another body either stationary or in motion.

Since the river is flowing parallel to the shore and the ferry is moving perpendicular to the shore, their velocities are at right angles to each other.

The two velocities form a right angled-triangle of sides 2, 4 and a hypotenuse which gives the relative velocity of the ferry to the current.

Using Pythagoras rule:

  • c² = a² + b²
  • Let c be the hypotenuse
  • a =  velocity of the ferry, and
  • b = the velocity of the current, and

c² = 4² + 2²

c² = 16 + 4

c = 20

c = √20

c = 4.47 m/s

c ≈ 4.5 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the ferry relative to the current is 4.5 m/s.
