The atom in an excited state has more energy and is less stable than the atom in the ground state.
alexgriva [62]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The ground state of an atom is defined as the lowest available energy the atom possesses.

An atom is said to be in an excited state when the atom gains energy and uses that energy to change its orbital arrangement.

You've been called in to investigate a car accident by the Bluffs. A car went over a 7.93 meter high cliff
valina [46]

Explanation:

Use the height of the cliff to determine how long it took the car to land.

Take down to be positive.  Given:

Δy = 7.93 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

7.93 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 1.27 s

Use the time to calculate the horizontal velocity.

Given:

Δx = 26.7 m

a = 0 m/s²

Find: v₀

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

26.7 m = v₀ (1.27 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.27 s)²

v₀ = 21.0 m/s

The driver was going 21.0 m/s, faster than the speed limit of 9.72 m/s.

A horizontal force of 750 N is needed to overcome the force of static friction between a level floor and a 250-kg crate. What is
loris [4]

Answer:

The acceleration of the crate is 1.82\ m/s^2.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force, F = 750 N

Mass of the crate, m = 250 kg

The coefficient of friction is 0.12.

We need to find the acceleration of the crate. The net force acting on the crate is given by :

F=ma\\\\F-f=ma

f is frictional force, f=\mu N=\mu mg

F-\mu mg=ma\\\\a=\dfrac{F-\mu mg}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{750-0.12\times 250\times 9.8}{250}\\\\a=1.82\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the crate is 1.82\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

A typical incandescent light bulb consumes 75 W of power and has a mass of 30 g. You want to save electrical energy by dropping
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The height will be 917431.2 m.

Explanation:

Power of bulb = 75 W

Time kept on 1 hr = 60 x 60 = 3600 sec

Energy of bulb = power x time

E = 75 x 3600 = 270000 J

From conservation of energy, kinetic energy of the bulb is equal to the potential energy of the bulb due to its height of fall.

Potential energy = m x g x h

Where g = acceleration due to gravity 9.81 m/s2

m = mass = 30 g = 0.03 kg

PE = 0.03 x 9.81 x h = 0.2943h

Equating withe the energy of bulb (still obeying energy conservation)

270000 = 0.2943h

h = 270000/0.2943 = 917431.2 m
