Consider an element with energy levels E 0 and E ∗ and degeneracies of those energy levels g 0 and g ∗ , respectively. Determine

the fraction of atoms of the element in the excited state ( N ∗ / N 0 ) at 4471 K if the wavelength difference of the two states is 407.3 nm, and g 0 = 2 and g ∗ = 4 .

Answer:

0.00073

Explanation:

\dfrac{N^*}{N_0} = Fraction of atoms of the element in the excited state

\dfrac{g^*}{g_0}=\dfrac{4}{2} = Fraction of states

T = Temperature = 4471 K

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s

k = Boltzmann constant = 1.38\times 10^{-23}\ J/K

\lambda = Wavelength = 407.3 nm

We have the relation

\dfrac{N^*}{N_0}=\dfrac{g^*}{g_0}e^{-\dfrac{\Delta E}{kt}}

Change in energy is given by

\Delta E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}\\\Rightarrow \Delta E=\dfrac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8}}{407.3\times 10^{-9}}

\dfrac{N^*}{N_0}=\dfrac{4}{2}e^{-\dfrac{\dfrac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8}}{407.3\times 10^{-9}}}{1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 4471}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{N^*}{N_0}=0.00073

The fraction of atoms of the element in the excited state is 0.00073

C. copper

Explanation:

Copper is the best conductor of heat from the given options. Plastic, wood and cotton are all poor conductors other wise known as insulators.

Metals are typically good conductors of heat.

  • they generally do not have a high specific heat capacity which implies that they get heated easily.
  • a good conductor allows heat to flow fast and it simultaneously loses heat readily too.
  • copper is a good conductor, when heat its perfectly allows heat to pass through
  • when heat is removed, it loses it very fast.

Ronch [10]

Answer: 1.

<em>The earliest known life-forms are putative fossilized microorganisms, found in hydrothermal vent precipitates, that may have lived as early as 4.28 Gya (billion years ago), relatively soon after the oceans formed 4.41 Gya, and not long after the formation of the Earth 4.54 Gya.</em>

<em>2.There are many theories about why we dream, but no one knows for sure. Some researchers say dreams have no purpose or meaning. Others say we need dreams for our mental, emotional, and physical health. or</em>

<em>Most dreaming occurs during REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, which we cycle through periodically during the night. Sleep studies show our brainwaves are almost as active during REM cycles as they are when we're awake. Experts believe the brainstem generates REM sleep and the forebrain generates dreams.</em>

3.A clear rule determines exactly what makes a prime: it's a whole number that can't be exactly divided by anything except 1 and itself. But there's no discernable pattern in the occurrence of the primes. ... That's because after the number 5, there are only four possibilities — 1, 3, 7 and 9 — for prime last digits

4.There are no cures for any kinds of cancer, but there are treatments that may cure you. Many people are treated for cancer, live out the rest of their life, and die of other causes. Many others are treated for cancer and still die from it, although treatment may give them more time: even years or decades.

5.humans can't hop into a time machine and go back in time,

6.Our universe may be one of many, physicists say. The universe we live in may not be the only one out there. In fact, our universe could be just one of an infinite number of universes making up a "multiverse." Though the concept may stretch credulity, there's good physics behind it.

7.Consciousness is everything you experience. It is the tune stuck in your head, the sweetness of chocolate mousse, the throbbing pain of a toothache, the fierce love for your child and the bitter knowledge that eventually all feelings will end.
