The type of energy transferred by a wave in a medium is______ energy

Physics
1 answer:
12345 [234]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

kinetic energy

Explanation:

When particles become part of a wave, they start to move up or down. This means that kinetic energy (energy of movement) has been transferred to them.

well, it also depends on the type of medium you're talking about. But, basically kinetic energy is transferred

A 20 KeV electron emits two bremsstrahlung photons as it is being brought to rest in two successive decelerations. The wavelengt
Degger [83]

Answer:

λ₁ = 87.5 10⁻¹² m ,  λ₂ =  2.175 10⁻¹⁰ m,    E₂ = 5.8 10³ eV

Explanation:

In this case you can use the law of conservation of energy, all the energy of the electron is converted into energized emitted photons

Let's reduce to the SI system

          E₀ = 20 10³ eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1eV) = 3.2 10⁻¹⁵ J

          Δλ = 1.30 A = 0.13 nm = 0.13 10⁻⁹ m

          Ef = E₁ + E₂

         E₀ = Ef

         E₀ = E₁ + E₂

The energy can be found with the Planck equation

          E = h f

          c = λ f

          f = c / λ

          E = hc / λ

They indicate that the wavelength of the second photon is

 

           λ₂ =  λ₁ +0.130 10⁻⁹

We replace

           E₀ = hv / λ₁ + hc / ( λ₁ + 0.130 10⁺⁹)

           E₀ / hv = 1 / λ₁ + 1 / ( λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹)

          3.2 10⁻¹⁵ / (6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸) = ( λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹ +  λ₁) /  λ₁ ( λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹)

          1.6 10¹⁰ ( λ₁² +0.13 10⁻⁹  λ₁) = 2  λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹

           λ₁² + 0.13 10⁻⁹  λ₁ = 1.25 10⁻¹⁰  λ₁ + 8.125 10⁻²¹

            λ₁² + 0.005 10⁻⁹  λ₁ = 8.125 10⁻²¹

            λ₁² + 5 10⁻¹²  λ₁ - 8.125 10⁻²¹ = 0

Let's solve the second degree equation

            λ₁ = [-5 10⁻¹² ±√((5 10⁻¹²)² + 4 8.125 10⁻²¹)] / 2

    λ₁ = [-5 10⁻¹² ±√(25 10⁻²⁴ +32.5 10⁻²¹)] / 2 = [-5 10⁻¹² ±√ (32525 10⁻²⁴)] / 2

             λ₁ = [-5 10⁻¹² ± 180 10⁻¹²] / 2

            λ₁ = 87.5 10⁻¹² m

             λ₂ = -92.5 10⁻¹² m

We take the positive wavelength

The wavelength of the photons is

            λ₁ = 87.5 10⁻¹² m

            λ₂ =  λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹

             λ₂ = 87.5 10⁻¹² + 0.13 10⁻⁹

             λ₂ = 0.2175 10⁻⁹ m = 2.175 10⁻¹⁰ m

The energy after the first deceleration is

            E₂ = E₀ –E₁

            E₂ = E₀ –hc / λ₁

            E₂ = 3.2 10⁻¹⁵ - 6.63 10⁺³⁴ 3 10⁸ / 87.5 10⁻¹²

            E₂ = 3.2 10⁻¹⁵ - 2.27 10⁻¹⁵

             E₂ = 0.93 10⁻¹⁵ J

             E₂ = 0.93 10⁻¹⁵ J (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J)

             E₂ = 5.8 10³ eV
