Answer:

The possible quantum numbers for Ca atom when it is in excited

n = 4

l= 1

m =-1,0,1

Explanation:

Given that,

Atomic number = 20

The configuration of Ca

Ca = 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^2

So, The principle quantum number is n =4.

The azimuthal quantum number can take value from 0,1,2...(n-1)

In the ground state, l= 0

When it is excited to p state

Then, l = 1

The magnetic quantum number can take value from l to -l

m=1,0,-1

Hence, The possible quantum numbers for Ca atom when it is in excited

n = 4

l= 1

m =-1,0,1

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation.

Explanation:

To describe a situation in which you exert a force on something and it does not move, you need to Identify the action force and the reaction force, the relative size of the forces, and the objects they act on.

The magnitude of the static friction between the object and the ground is larger than the magnitude of the force applied.

The object will not move if the magnitude of the static friction is greater than the magnitude of the force applied.

The action force is the force applied while the reaction force is equal to the frictional force between the object and the ground.

Which action best demonstrates the transformation of mechanical energy to heat energy and light energy?
Vinvika [58]

Well, first off, mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic and potential energy in an object that is used to do work. In other words, it is energy in an object due to its motion or position, or both. Heat energy is the result of the movement of tiny particles called atoms, molecules or ions in solids, liquids and gases. Light energy is the only form of energy that we can actually see directly. It is formed through chemical, radiation, and mechanical means. Striking a match stick (mechanical energy) creates fire, which has a ton of heat energy, and produces light too, so the answer, is A. I hope i could help!
