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.

a. 46 m/s east

The jet here is moving with a uniform accelerated motion, so we can use the following suvat equation to find its velocity:

v=u+at

where

v is the velocity calculated at time t

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

The jet in the problem has, taking east as positive direction:

u = +16 m/s  is the initial velocity

a=+3 m/s^2  is the acceleration

Substituting t = 10 s, we find the final velocity of the jet:

v=16 + (3)(10)=46 m/s

And since the result is positive, the direction is east.

b. 310 m

The displacement of the jet can be found using another suvat equation

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the displacement

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the jet in this problem,

u = +16 m/s  is the initial velocity

a=+3 m/s^2  is the acceleration

t = 10 s is the time

Substituting into the equation,

s=(16)(10)+\frac{1}{2}(3)(10)^2=310 m

When a solid is placed in a container and heat is applied, a phase change occurs. Watch the video and identify which of the foll
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

a) false b) true c) true d) false and e) true

Explanation:

a) false.   All the energy applied is used for the phase change, so the temperature remains constant.

b)   true.   The kinetic energy is associated with the speed of the particles and they have more mobility in the liquid, therefore, more kinetic energy.

c)   true.   Since energy is used for state change

d)  false.   In general, mobility and temperature are proportional

e)  true.  Heat is the source of energy for the change of state

What number and type of hybrid orbital(s) form(s) when one p and one s atomic orbital mix?
Harrizon [31]

Two equivalent hybridized orbitals will form from the mixing of one s-orbital and one p-orbital, that is (sp) orbital.

<h3>What are orbitals?</h3>

Orbital is the place around nucleus where mostly the electrons are present. There are four types of orbitals are present, s, p, d, and f.

The orbitals that are formed by the mixing of these orbitals are called hybrid orbitals.

Thus, two equivalent hybridized orbitals will form from the mixing of one s-orbital and one p-orbital, that is (sp) orbital.
