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 projectile is fired with an initial speed of 40 m/s at an angle of elevation of 30∘. Find the following: (Assume air resistanc
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

a. 2.0secs

b. 20.4m

c. 4.0secs

d. 141.2m

e. 40m/s, ∅= -30°

Explanation:

The following Data are giving

Initial speed U=40m/s

angle of elevation,∅=30°

a. the expression for the time to attain the maximum height is expressed as

t=\frac{usin\alpha }{g}

where g is the acceleration due to gravity, and the value is 9.81m/s if we substitute values we arrive at

t=40sin30/9.81\\t=2.0secs

b. the expression for the maximum height is expressed as

H=\frac{u^{2}sin^{2}\alpha  }{2g} \\H=\frac{40^{2}0.25 }{2*9.81} \\H=20.4m

c. The time to hit the ground is the total time of flight which is twice the time to reach the maximum height ,

Hence T=2t

T=2*2.0

T=4.0secs

d. The range of the projectile is expressed as

R=\frac{U^{2}sin2\alpha}{g}\\R=\frac{40^{2}sin60}{9.81}\\R=141.2m

e. The landing speed is the same as the initial projected speed but in opposite direction

Hence the landing speed is 40m/s at angle of -30°

Inga [223]
1) The forces of molecules is how strong they are being held together. Now, we know that solid is the last one, because it's particles are held CLOSELY and VERY TIGHTLY together, which is why it has a definite shape.And last of all, a gas's particles are held freely, which is why it has no shape. So the answer would be:- gas, liquid, solid

3) The state of matter that does not have a definite shape, but has a definite volume is a liquid. So the answer is :- liquid

7) False, an endothermic reaction is when it absorbs energy, and as we know that in a chemical reaction as the following, it tends to be an exothermic reaction, meaning that is releases energy. So the answer is:- FALSE

8) Gases have particles that are far apart (freely) and move fast. So the answer is:- They are moving very fast and are far apart.<span> </span>

Is kinetic energy scalar quantity
VashaNatasha [74]

Yes, Kinetic Energy is a scalar quantity because the direction is not needed.  A scalar quantity is one dimensional measurement.

Explanation:

  • Kinetic Energy is a scalar quantity that means it has only a magnitude and no direction.
  • Energy has a size but no direction; two objects can have the same kinetic energy but they travel in opposite directions.
  • The formula of Kinetic Energy is
  1. K.E = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}
  • Mass is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity.
  • squaring velocity will make vector to scalar quantity.
