Calculate the wavelengths of the first five emission lines of the Balmer series for hydrogen

Physics
1 answer:
In-s [12.5K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The Balmer series in a hydrogen atom relates the possible electron transitions down to the n = 2 position to the wavelength of the emission that scientists observe. In quantum physics, when electrons transition between different energy levels around the atom (described by the principal quantum number, n) they either release or absorb a photon. The Balmer series describes the transitions from higher energy levels to the second energy level and the wavelengths of the emitted photons. You can calculate this using the Rydberg formula.

What are two different ways to understand time? Explain and give examples.
Maru [420]
There are two different ways to understand time and these are:
A. What time is it?
B. How much time?
The examples of these two different ways are:
A. What time is it? The best example that would help us understand and know what time are the clock and the calendar. This gives us the exact hour, minutes and seconds. The calendar tells us the exact day, month and year.
B. How much time? This makes us understand how much time did it take from the starting time. An example for this would be a stopwatch.

Which term describes the number of joules used per second by a circuit?
jasenka [17]

Answer:

B) Power

Explanation:

The power is defined by the following equation:

P = W / t

where:

W = work = Force * Distance = [Newton] * [meter]

t = time = seconds

The units for work are give en Newton per second, which is equal to Joules

And for power the unit used commonly is Watts, therefore:

Watts = (Joule/second)

What does saliva begin to break down in the mouth?<br> answers QUICK I will make you brainst !
Andrew [12]

An enzyme called amylase breaks down starches (complex carbohydrates) into sugars, which your body can more easily absorb. Saliva also contains an enzyme called lingual lipase, which breaks down fats.
