The frequency of the photon emitted by a hydrogen atom is   26.2*10^-^4 hz

<h3>What are Photons?</h3>

A particle representing a quantum of light or other electromagnetic radiation. A photon carries energy proportional to the radiation frequency but has zero rest mass.

In the case of light, the frequency, symbolized by the Greek letter nu (ν), of any wave equals the speed of light, c, divided by the wavelength λ:

v = c/λ

Since the wavelength λ is in the bottom of the fraction, the frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength.

v = c/λ

v= \frac{3*10^8}{434*10^-^9} = 6.91*10^1^4 Hz

By using Rydberg's formula,

1/λ = Rz^2(\frac{1}{n_1^2}  - \frac{1}{n_2^2})

1/λ = 109677 *(\frac{1}{4^2} - \frac{1}{6^2}) = 3808.22 cm^-^1

λ  = 26.2*10^-^4 hz

26.2*10^-^4 hz is  frequency of the photon emitted by a hydrogen atom.

Using a crowbar, a person can remove a nail by exerting little force, whereas pulling directly on the nail requires a large forc
algol [13]
Here we deal with a lever law. It states that product of force and distance from a fixed point on a lever is equal on both sides.

F₁*d₁ = F₂*d₂

By analysing this formula we can see that applying small force on a great length equals great force on a small length.
To remove nail we need to apply certain force. If we use F₁ for this required force we can see that on other side we need to apply certain force. If we have greater arm length we need smaller force. In a crowbar arm length along which we apply force is greater than length of our arm. This leads to a conclusion that we need smaller force when using crowbar. Depending on the length of a nail it is possible that we need to apply force that is greater than force required to remove nail.

The sum of the charges on both plates of a capacitor is zero. What does a capacitor store?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Current is the overall flow of electrons through a conductor and can be defined as the speed of the flow of electrons. Resistance is defined as the opposition to current flow. Circuits must have resistance  to convert electrical energy into light, heat, or motion. Resistance is called the directional movement of electrons that form an electric current. It is also known that  electrons do not move freely in the crystal structure of a conductor. Resistance is the inherent opposition to the flow of electrons present in a conductor. Inductance is the property of any circuit to resist any change in current while capacitance is the property of the circuit to resist any change in voltage.

<h3>What is capacitor?</h3>

A capacitor is an electronic component that stores an electrical charge. Capacitors consist of two close conductors (usually plates) separated by a dielectric material. The plates accumulate an electrical charge when connected to a power source. The main purpose of a capacitor is to store electrostatic energy in an electric field and, if possible, to supply this energy to an electrical circuit.

To avoid dangerous circuit failure, they allow alternating current to flow but block direct current. Capacitors are widely used as circuit elements in many common electrical devices. Commercial capacitors are made of interwoven metal foils with paraffin or Mylar-impregnated paper as the dielectric.

Which moves more: the air molecules or the energy of the sound?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

A sound wave can be affected by a lot of different variables. As an audio engineer some of the more common things we deal with involve air temperature, humidity and even wind. The first two affect the speed at which the wave travels, while wind can actually cause a phase like effect if it is blowing hard enough. Another big one though not directly related to the air is walls and other solid objects that cause the sound wave to bounce off of them and reflect. This causes a secondary wave that isn’t as strong as the first wave but is the cause of “muddy” sounding venues when you are indoors.
