The primary distinction between a system's ground state and excited state is that a system's ground state is any state in which its electrons are at their lowest potential energy levels, whereas an excited state is any state in which they are at an energy higher than the system's ground state.

<h3>What do you mean by the excited state and the ground state of the electron?</h3>

Any quantum state of a system that has higher energy than the ground state is considered to be in an excited state in quantum mechanics. An increase in energy level over a predetermined starting point, typically the ground state, but occasionally an already excited state, is referred to as excitation.

A ground-state atom is one in which moving one or more electrons to different orbitals will not reduce the overall energy of the electrons in the atom. In other words, all of the electrons in a ground-state atom are at their lowest conceivable energy levels.

A lamp hangs from the ceiling at a height of 2.6 m. The lamp has a mass of 3.8 kg. The screws holding the lamp break, and it fal
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given height of lamp from the ceiling = 2.6m

mass of the lamp = 3.8kg

acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

As the body falls to the ground, it falls under the influence of gravity.

Gravitational potential energy = mass*acc due to gravity * height

Gravitational potential energy  = 3.8*2.6*9.81

Gravitational potential energy  = 96.923 Joules

b) Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv²

m = mass of the body (in kg)

v = velocity of the body (in m/s²)

To get the velocity v, we will use the equation of motion v^{2} = u^{2}+2gh

v^{2} = 0^{2}+2(9.81)(2.6) \\v^{2} = 51.012\\v =\sqrt{51.012}\\ v = 7.14m/s

Since mass = 3.8kg

K.E =  1/2 * 3.8 *7.14^{2}\\ K.E = 96.86Joules

c) To know how fast the lamp is moving when it hits the ground, we will use the formula. When the body hits the ground, the height covered will be 0m. this means that the body is not moving once it hits the ground. It stays in one position. The energy possessed by the body at this point is potential energy. The correct answer is therefore 0 m/s
