Answer:

D.  4.281 x 10⁻¹⁹ Joules.

Explanation:

  • To get the change in energy, we can use the relation:

<em>E = (hc)/λ</em>

where,

E is the energy of the atom.

h is Planck’s constant =  6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s.

c is the speed of light = 2.998 x 10⁸ m/s.

λ is the wavelength of photon = 4.64 x 10⁻⁷ m.

<em>∴ E = (hc)/λ</em> = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(2.998 x 10⁸ m/s)/(4.64 x 10⁻⁷ m) = <em>4.281 x 10⁻¹⁹ J.</em>

The _energy of the baseball is the sum of the kinetic energy and _energy of the particles that make up the baseball
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Mechanical energy

Kinetic energy

Explanation:

The mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic and potential energy of the particles that make up the baseball.

Mechanical energy is made up of kinetic energy and potential energy. When the baseball is in motion, the particles make use of the kinetic energy, also known as motion energy and when the ball is not in motion the particles make use of the potential energy, also known as stored energy.

The wavelength of the blue light given off by a mercury vapor street lamp is 457 nm. What is the frequency of this light in hert
Fed [463]

Answer:

6.56×10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Wavelength = 457 nm

Frequency =?

Next, we shall convert 457 nm to metre (m). This can be obtained as follow:

1 nm = 1×10¯⁹ m

Therefore,

457 nm = 457 nm × 1×10¯⁹ m / 1 nm

457 nm = 4.57×10¯⁷ m

Thus, 457 nm is equivalent to 4.57×10¯⁷ m

Finally, we shall determine the frequency of the blue light as follow:

Wavelength = 4.57×10¯⁷ m

Velocity of light = 3×10⁸ m/s

Frequency =?

Velocity = wavelength x frequency

3×10⁸ = 4.57×10¯⁷ × frequency

Divide both side by 4.57×10¯⁷

frequency = 3×10⁸ / 4.57×10¯⁷

frequency = 6.56×10¹⁴ Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the blue light is 6.56×10¹⁴ Hz

The Weak Ionization constant (Ka) for HCOOH is equal to:<br><br><br> Please help me lol
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Ka=\frac{[H^+][HCOO^-]}{[HCOOH]}

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the weak ionization reaction for formic acid is:

HCOOH(aq)\rightleftharpoons H^+(aq)+HCOO^-(aq)

In such a way, we simply recall the law of mass action in order to represent the weak ionization constant, Ka, for such process, by taking into account that the concentration of products is divided over the concentration of reactants as shown below:

Ka=\frac{[H^+][HCOO^-]}{[HCOOH]}

Best regards.
