While an airplane is in flight, four forces act on it. Thrust is caused by the airplane's propellers pushing through the surroun

ding air, pulling the airplane forward. Drag is caused by the air smacking into the plane's surface, pushing it backward. Lift is caused by the air rushing over the wings, pushing it upward. And weight is caused by gravity pulling the plane downward. Which force acts on the plane at a distance?

The answer would be weight

Among these 4 forces, the only force acting on the plane at a distance is weight.


In fact, weight is due to gravity, which is a non-contact force (it acts also from a distance). All the other forces, instead, are due to the contact between the plane (or parts of it) with the surrounding air: without the air, all the other 3 forces (thrust, lift, drag) would not be present, while weight would be always present.

The magnitude of the electric force between two protons is 2.30 10-26 n. how far apart are they?
SCORPION-xisa [38]
The electric force between two charge objects is calculated through the Coulomb's law.
                               F = kq₁q₂/d²
The value of k is 9.0 x 10^9 Nm²/C² and the charge of proton is 1.602 x10^-19 C. Substituting the known values from the given,
                           2.30x10^-26 = (9.0 x 10^9 Nm²/C²)(1.602 x10^-19C)²/d²
The value of d is equal to 0.10 m.

Consider the f(x) = cos(x-C) function shown in the figure in blue color, where 0 ≤ C ≤ 2π. What is the value of parameter C for
klemol [59]

The value of parameter C for the function in the figure is 2.

<h3>What is amplitude of a wave?</h3>

The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of the wave. It can also be described at the maximum upward displacement of a wave curve.

f(x) = Acos(x - C)

where;

  • A is amplitude of the wave
  • C is phase difference of the wave

<h3>What is angular frequency of a wave?</h3>

Angular frequency is  the angular displacement of any element of the wave per unit time.

From the blue colored graph; at y = 1, x = -2 cm

1 = cos(2 - C)

(2 - C) = cos^(1)

(2 - C) = 0

C = 2

Thus, the value of parameter C for the function in the figure is 2.

Use the Bohr model to address this question. When a hydrogen atom makes a transition from the 5 th energy level to the 2nd, coun
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

A. 2.82 eV

B. 439nm

C. 59.5 angstroms

Explanation:

A. To calculate the energy of the photon emitted you use the following formula:

E_{n1,n2}=-13.4(\frac{1}{n_2^2}-\frac{1}{n_1^2})     (1)

n1: final state = 5

n2: initial state = 2

Where the energy is electron volts. You replace the values of n1 and n2 in the equation (1):

E_{5,2}=-13.6(\frac{1}{5^2}-\frac{1}{2^2})=2.82eV

B. The energy of the emitted photon is given by the following formula:

E=h\frac{c}{\lambda}   (2)

h: Planck's constant = 6.62*10^{-34} kgm^2/s

c: speed of light = 3*10^8 m/s

λ: wavelength of the photon

You first convert the energy from eV to J:

2.82eV*\frac{1J}{6.242*10^{18}eV}=4.517*10^{-19}J

Next, you use the equation (2) and solve for λ:

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.62*10^{-34} kg m^2/s)(3*10^8m/s)}{4.517*10^{-19}J}=4.39*10^{-7}m=439*10^{-9}m=439nm

C. The radius of the orbit is given by:

r_n=n^2a_o   (3)

where ao is the Bohr's radius = 2.380 Angstroms

You use the equation (3) with n=5:

r_5=5^2(2.380)=59.5

hence, the radius of the atom in its 5-th state is 59.5 anstrongs
