<span>Electric field is proportional to q/d^2, where q is the magnitude of the charge and d is the distance. Since all the given units are identical, we can just compare their relative magnitudes without calculating for the exact values.
A) 3/(0.4)^2 = 18.75
B) 1.5/(0.2)^2 = 37.5
C) 6/(0.4)^2 = 37.5
D) 3/(0.2)^2 = 75
Therefore, choice D has the largest electric field of all.

By calculating its wavelength (in nm), show that the second line in the Lyman series is UV radiation.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

 λ = 102.78  nm

This radiation is in the UV range,

Explanation:

Bohr's atomic model for the hydrogen atom states that the energy is

           E = - 13.606 / n²

where 13.606 eV   is the ground state energy and n is an integer

an atom transition is the jump of an electron from an initial state to a final state of lesser emergy

            ΔE = 13.606 (1 / n_{f}^{2} - 1 / n_{i}^{2})

the so-called Lyman series occurs when the final state nf = 1, so the second line occurs when ni = 3, let's calculate the energy of the emitted photon

            DE = 13.606 (1/1 - 1/3²)

            DE = 12.094 eV

let's reduce the energy to the SI system

            DE = 12.094 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1 ev) = 10.35 10⁻¹⁹ J

let's find the wavelength is this energy, let's use Planck's equation to find the frequency

            E = h f

             f = E / h

            f = 19.35 10⁻¹⁹ / 6.63 10⁻³⁴

            f = 2.9186 10¹⁵ Hz

now we can look up the wavelength

           c = λ f

           λ = c / f

           λ = 3 10⁸ / 2.9186 10¹⁵

           λ = 1.0278  10⁻⁷ m

let's reduce to nm

            λ = 102.78  nm

This radiation is in the UV range, which occurs for wavelengths less than 400 nm.

Increase in Space Suit Pressure 0.0/3.0 points (graded) If the pressure in a space suit increases, how will each of the followin
Art [367]

Answer:

Flexibility Increases

Pre-breathe time decreases

Mass of suit decreases.

Explanation:

Spacesuits are designed for space shuttles when a person goes to explore the galaxy. The spacesuits shuttle era are pressurized at 4.3 pounds per inch. The gas in the suit is 100% of oxygen and there is more oxygen to breathe when the altitude of 10,000 is reached. This will decrease the breathing time and mass of suit.

What is special about nitrogen, and what is its main function in the atmosphere
Vlad [161]
Nitrogen is the most abundant of the gases present in the atmosphere. 78 percent of the atmospheric air comprises of nitrogen, oxygen makes up for 21 percent and all other gases make up for the remaining one percent. Oxygen is a highly flammable gas and in the absence of nitrogen it would not have been possible to utilize this atmospheric oxygen, hence the presence of nitrogen reduces its flammability and also neutralizes the toxicity of other gases.
