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

A concrete block is hung from an ideal spring that has a force constant of 100 N/m . The spring stretches 0.129 m .A- What is th
madam [21]

Answer:

1.31498 kg

0.72050 s

0.72050 s

Explanation:

m = Mass of block

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

k = Spring constant = 100 N/M

x = Displacement = 0.129 m

The force balance is

mg=kx\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{kx}{g}\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{100\times 0.129}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow m=1.31498\ kg

The mass of the block is 1.31498 kg

Time period is given by

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{1.31498}{100}}\\\Rightarrow T=0.72050\ s

The period of oscillations is 0.72050 s

The time period does not depend on the acceleration due to gravity. It varies with the mass and the spring constant.

Hence, the time period would be the same

What two forces are most responsible for the formation of the cascade mountains
Ilya [14]
<span>The two foremost forces that were involved in the creation of the Cascade mountains are those of the tidal and tectonic forces. Tidal forces helped in eroding anything that was there previously, and the tectonic forces caused the eruption of these mountains to take place.</span>

If you were trying to build a soundproof room, which of the following materials would you choose in order to absorb the most sou
leonid [27]

Explanation :  

Absorption coefficient of a material determines how much sound is absorbed by the material.

To build a soundproof room, Heavy curtains and carpet can be used. They reduce reverberation.

Reverberation means an echoing sound which persists for some time. For example, when we bang on a huge piece of metal, we hear the reverberation even after we stop banging.  

Hence, option (A) and (D) are correct.

Two sticky spheres are suspended from light ropes of length LL that are attached to the ceiling at a common point. Sphere AA has
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

  h’ = 1/9 h

Explanation:

This exercise must be solved in parts:

* Let's start by finding the speed of sphere B at the lowest point, let's use the concepts of conservation of energy

starting point. Higher

         Em₀ = U = m g h

final point. Lower, just before the crash

         Em_f = K = ½ m v_{b}^2

energy is conserved

         Em₀ = Em_f

         m g h = ½ m v²

         v_b = \sqrt{2gh}

* Now let's analyze the collision of the two spheres. We form a system formed by the two spheres, therefore the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved

initial instant. Just before the crash

         p₀ = 2m 0 + m v_b

final instant. Right after the crash

         p_f = (2m + m) v

       

the moment is preserved

         p₀ = p_f

         m v_b = 3m v

         v = v_b / 3

         

          v = ⅓ \sqrt{2gh}

* finally we analyze the movement after the crash. Let's use the conservation of energy to the system formed by the two spheres stuck together

Starting point. Lower

          Em₀ = K = ½ 3m v²

Final point. Higher

          Em_f = U = (3m) g h'

          Em₀ = Em_f

          ½ 3m v² = 3m g h’

           

we substitute

         h’=  \frac{v^2}{2g}

         h’ =  \frac{1}{3^2} \  \frac{ 2gh}{2g}

         h’ = 1/9 h

Motor oil , with a viscosity of 0 . 250 Ns / m2 , is flowing through a tube that has a radius of 5 . 00 mm and is 25 . 0 cm long
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

1.1775 x 10^-3 m^3 /s

Explanation:

viscosity, η = 0.250 Ns/m^2

radius, r = 5 mm = 5 x 10^-3 m

length, l = 25 cm = 0.25 m

Pressure, P = 300 kPa = 300000 Pa

According to the Poisuellie's formula

Volume flow per unit time is

V=\frac{\pi \times Pr^{4}}{8\eta l}

V=\frac{3.14 \times 300000\times \left ( 5\times 10^{-3} \right )^{4}}{8\times 0.250\times 0.25}

V = 1.1775 x 10^-3 m^3 /s

Thus, the volume of oil flowing per second is 1.1775 x 10^-3 m^3 /s.
