C would be your answer because we can tell by using the equation for finding force so taking m*a lets pretend I weighed 10 kg on earth and earth's acceleration is roughly 10 m/s^2 so well use that, that means I would have a force on earth of 100N and if the acceleration is increased 2.5 times I would then have a force of 250N on Jupiter which roughly translates to weight of 25 kg on earth making C the answer

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

0.000003782 m

0.000001891 m

0.000001197125 m

Explanation:

\lambda = Wavelength = 248 nm

D = Diameter of beam = 1 cm

f = Focal length = 0.625 cm

The angle is given by

\theta=\dfrac{1.22\lambda}{D}

The width is given by

d=2\theta f\\\Rightarrow d=2\dfrac{1.22\lambda f}{D}\\\Rightarrow d=2\dfrac{1.22\times 248\times 10^{-9}\times 6.25\times 10^{-2}}{1\times 10^{-2}}\\\Rightarrow d=0.000003782\ m

The required width is 0.000003782 m

Minimum resolvable line separation is given by

\dfrac{0.000003782}{2}=0.000001891\ m

The minimum resolvable line separation between adjacent lines is 0.000001891 m

when \lambda=157\ nm

d=2\dfrac{1.22\times 157\times 10^{-9}\times 6.25\times 10^{-2}}{1\times 10^{-2}}\\\Rightarrow d=0.00000239425\ m

The new minimum resolvable line separation between adjacent lines is

\dfrac{0.00000239425}{2}=0.000001197125\ m

What is surface tension? How does surface tension result from intermolecular forces? How is it related to the strength of interm
Bond [772]

Answer:

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible.

Surface tension is caused by effects of intermolecular forces at liquid interface.

Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases.

Explanation:

  • Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible. It can also be seen as the energy required to increase the surface of a liquid by a unit amount.
  • Surface tension is caused by the mediating effects of intermolecular forces at the liquid interfaces. Example in water, surface tension is caused by the mediating effect of the force between hydrogen and oxygen molecules. Liquids tends to reduce their surface area because of inward attarction of the liquid molecules.
  • Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases. Also, surface tension decreases as intermolecular forces decreases.

what is the necessary condition within the hydrogen atom for balmer line photons to be absorbed by the hydrogen atom
luda_lava [24]

Explanation :

When an electron jumps from one energy level to another, the energy of atom gets changed.

If a photon gets absorbed, the electron will move to higher energy levels and then fall back to the lower energy levels. Then each time a photon will be absorbed whose energy is given by difference between the initial and final energy levels i.e

In Balmer series, the transition is from higher energy levels to n = 2.

So, the necessary condition for Balmer series is that the electron should be at first excited state or n = 2 level as shown in figure.

A pendulum of length L is suspended from the ceiling of an elevator. When the elevator is at rest the period of the pendulum is
Stolb23 [73]
<h2>Option A is the correct answer.</h2>

Explanation:

When an elevator moves upward with consonant acceleration a, the overall acceleration on the body is given by

                        a' = a + g

So acceleration of pendulum is a + g.

We have equation for period of simple pendulum

                     T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{a'}}

In normal case a' = g here a' is more.

From the equation we can see that period of simple pendulum is inversely proportional to square root of acceleration.

Since acceleration increases period decreases.

Option A is the correct answer.

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

a.5.66ms^{-2}

b.55 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass ,m=0.9 kg

Length of string,l=50 cm=\frac{50}{100}=0.50 m

1 m=100 cm

\theta=30^{\circ}

R=55 m

a.Centripetal acceleration

a_c=gtan\theta

a_c=9.8tan30^{\circ}

a_c=5.66 m/s^2

Hence, the radial acceleration of the bus=5.66m/s^2

b. Radius of curve,R=55 m
