Answer:

\Delta E=1.64*10^{-18}J

Explanation:

The energy difference between the energy levels involved in the transition of the electron is directly proportional to the frequency of the emitted photon:

\Delta E=h\nu(1)

Where h is the Planck constant. The photon's frequency is inversely proportional to its wavelegth:

\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}(2)

Here c is the speed of light. Replacing (2) in (1):

\Delta E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\Delta E=\frac{(6.63*10^{-34}J\cdot s)(3*10^8\frac{m}{s})}{121.6*10^{-9}m}\\\Delta E=1.64*10^{-18}J

I need help with 2 questions . Please help c:
dezoksy [38]
A) According to the nebular theory, the Solar System formed from a huge gaseous nebula which at a certain point was perturbated. Atoms and molecules started colliding, forming planetesimals (a sort of big rocks). The planetesimals were attracted to each other by gravity, forming bigger warm almost spherical objects called protoplanets, which at the end cooled down forming planets.
Therefore the correct answer is "all of the above".

b) The planets closer to the Sun were (and still are) subject to higher temperatures, due to their close distance to the Sun. In these conditions, rocky materials undergo condensation, while iced gaseous materials undergo vaporization. In the outer parts of the Solar System temperatures are too low to allow these transformations.
The correct answer is again "all of the above".

People often live on barrier island even though there not permanent why aren't they permanent
Arlecino [84]
They are dynamic, with winds and waves constantly reworking and moving the barrier island sand.

Changes in sea level also affect these islands.

Most scientists agree that sea level has been gradually rising over the last thousand years, and this rise could be accelerating today due to global warming.

Rising sea level causes existing islands to migrate shoreward.

What happens to the charge on the conductive sphere when it is connected to a source of charge such as the electrostatic voltage
hichkok12 [17]

Answer and Explanation:

The charge on the conductive sphere spreads out non-uniformly over the surface of the sphere.

Normally, the charge on such spherical surface stay on this surface uniformly, but the presence of a voltage source tampers with that dynamic.
