The answer is the excited state of the hydrogen atom, n=24 and Z=23

Kinetic energy of electron is, $\mathrm{KE}=\frac{13.6 \mathrm{Z}^{2}}{\mathrm{n}^{2}} \mathrm{eV}$

For the excited state of the hydrogen atom , n=24 and Z=23

K.E= $\frac{13.6 \times 23^{2}}{24^{2}}=$ 12.5

What is the hydrogen atom?

The hydrogen atom is the most basic of all the atoms since it just has one proton and one electron.
There are two more hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium, in addition to protium, which is the most prevalent form of the atom.
The hydrogen atom consists of a proton and an electron, and has a spherical symmetry that can most easily be studied using a spherical polar coordinate frame.

The accreted material, composed mainly of hydrogen, is compacted on the surface of the white dwarf due to the intense gravitational force on that place. As material accumulates, The white dwarf becomes increasingly hot, until it reaches the critical temperature for ignition of nuclear fusion.

Two insulated copper wires of similar overall diameter have very different interiors. One wire possesses a solid core of copper,

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Solid Wire $I = 0.01237 \ A$

Stranded Wire $I_2 = 0.00978 \ A$

Solid Wire $R = 0.0149 \ \Omega$

Stranded Wire $R_1 = 0.0189 \ \Omega$

Explanation:

Considering the first question

From the question we are told that

The radius of the first wire is $r_1 = 1.53 mm = 0.0015 \ m$

The radius of each strand is $r_0 = 0.306 \ mm = 0.000306 \ m$

The current density in both wires is $J = 1750 \ A/m^2$

Considering the first wire

The cross-sectional area of the first wire is

$A = \pi r^2$

= > $A = 3.142 * (0.0015)^2$

= > $A = 7.0695 *10^{-6} \ m^2$

Generally the current in the first wire is

$I = J*A$

=> $I = 1750*7.0695 *10^{-6}$

=> $I = 0.01237 \ A$

Considering the second wire wire

The cross-sectional area of the second wire is

$A_1 = 19 * \pi r^2$

=> $A_1 = 19 *3.142 * (0.000306)^2$

=> $A_1 = 5.5899 *10^{-6} \ m^2$

Generally the current is

$I_2 = J * A_1$

=> $I_2 = 1750 * 5.5899 *10^{-6}$

=> $I_2 = 0.00978 \ A$

Considering question two

From the question we are told that

Resistivity is $\rho = 1.69* 10^{-8} \Omega \cdot m$

The length of each wire is $l = 6.25 \ m$

Generally the resistance of the first wire is mathematically represented as

$R = \frac{\rho * l }{A}$

=> $R = \frac{ 1.69* 10^{-8} * 6.25 }{ 7.0695 *10^{-6} }$

=> $R = 0.0149 \ \Omega$

Generally the resistance of the first wire is mathematically represented as

$R_1 = \frac{\rho * l }{A_1}$

=> $R_1 = \frac{ 1.69* 10^{-8} * 6.25 }{5.5899 *10^{-6} }$

=> $R_1 = 0.0189 \ \Omega$

schepotkina [342]

This question involves the concepts of the law of conservation of energy and kinetic energy.

The girl's fastest speed is "3.7 m/s".

According to the law of conservation of energy, the girl will have the fastest speed at mean position, which will be calculated as follows:

Loss in Potential Energy = Gain in Kinetic Energy

$mg\Delta h=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2g\Delta h}$

where,

v = maximum speed = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Δh = change in height = 1.3 m - 0.6 m = 0.7 m

Therefore,

$v=\sqrt{2(9.81\ m/s^2)(0.7\ m)}$
