Answer:

B. Metallic

Explanation:

It is the metallic ions that offer resistance to the electron flow.

Resistance in a circuit is due to the opposition to the flow of current (flow of electrons) . Resistance depends on the characteristics of the material, like resistivity , length and area of cross section of the metal.

If a material has more resistivity, resistance is more and vice versa. If the length is more or if the length is increased, keeping the area of cross section same, for a given material, the metallic ions colliding with the electrons have to travel a greater distance, there by increasing the resistance.

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

E₁ = 1.042 eV

E₄₋₃= 7.29 eV

E₄₋₂= 12.50 eV

E₄₋₁= 15.63 eV

E₃₋₂= 5.21eV

E₃₋₁= 8.34eV

E₂₋₁= 3.13eV

Explanation:

The energy in an infinite square-well potential is giving by:

$E = \frac {h^{2} n^{2}}{8mL^{2}}$

<em>where, h: Planck constant = 6.62x10⁻³⁴J.s, n: is the energy state, m: mass of the electron and L: widht of the square-well potential </em>

<u>The energy of the electron in the ground state, </u><u>n = 1</u><u>, is: </u>

$E_{1} = \frac {(6.62 \cdot 10^{-34})^{2} (1)^{2}}{(8) (9.11 \cdot 10^{-31}) (0.6 \cdot 10^{-9} m)^{2}}$

$E_{1} = 1.67 \cdot 10^{-19} J = 1.042 eV$

The photon energies that are emitted as the electron jumps to the ground state is the difference between the states:

$E_{\Delta n} = \Delta n^{2} E_{1}$

$E_{(4 - 3)} = (4^{2} - 3^{2}) 1.042 eV = 7.29eV$

$E_{(4 - 2)} = (4^{2} - 2^{2}) 1.042 eV = 12.50eV$

$E_{(4 - 1)} = (4^{2} - 1^{2}) 1.042 eV = 15.63eV$

$E_{(3 - 2)} = (3^{2} - 2^{2}) 1.042 eV = 5.21eV$

$E_{(3 - 1)} = (3^{2} - 1^{2}) 1.042 eV = 8.34eV$

$E_{(2 - 1)} = (2^{2} - 1^{2}) 1.042 eV = 3.13eV$

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

The correct option is (b).

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field, $E=2\times 10^2\ N/C$

We need to find the magnitude of the force on the electron as a result of the electric field.

We know that, the electric force is given by :

$F=qE\\\\=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2\times 10^2\\\\F=3.2\times 10^{-17}\ N$

So, the required force on the electron is equal to $3.2\times 10^{-17}\ N$ .

If a participant were holding two different weights in their hands and the jnd for a 10-gram weight was 1 gram, what should the

Nataliya [291]

The jnd for a 100-gram weight, according to Weber's law will be 10 gram.

<h3>What is Weber's law?</h3>

It should be noted that Weber's law asserts that the nature of any given stimulus will always affect how change is perceived. In other words, the size, weight, importance, etc. of the prior situation and the significance of the change both influence whether a change will be observed.

In this case, it was given that the jnd for a 10-gram weight was 1 gram, therefore, the jnd for 100 gram will be;

= 100 / 10

= 10 gram

Therefore, jnd for a 100-gram weight, according to Weber's law will be 10 grams.
