Answer:

The separation between the two lowest levels =  1.24 * 10^{-39}J

The values of n where the energy of molecule reaches 1/2 kT at 300K = 2.2 * 10^{9}

The separation at this level = 1.8 * 10^{-30}J

Explanation:

Knowing the formula

En = \frac{n^{2} h^{2}  }{8 mL^{2} }

Mass of oxygen molecule

m (O2) = 32 amu * \frac{1.6605 * 10^{-27 kg} }{1 amu}

So the energy diference between the two lowest levels:

E2 - E1 = \frac{3h^{2} }{8mL^{2} }

E2 - E1 =  \frac{3 * (6.626 * 10^{-34} Js)^{2} } {8 * 32 amu * (\frac{1.6605 * 10^{-27 kg} }{1 amu})* (5*10^{-2})^{2}   } = 1.24 * 10^{-39}J

Now we should find n where the energy of molecule reaches 1/2 kT

En = \frac{n^{2} h^{2}  }{8 mL^{2} } = \frac{1}{2}kT

\frac{h^{2}  }{8 mL^{2} } = 4.13 * 10^{-14}J

n^{2} *  (4.13 * 10^{-14}J) = \frac{1}{2} (1.38 * 10^{-23}JK^{-1}) * 300K

n = 2.2 * 10^{9}

by the end is necessary to calculate the separation of the level

En - En-1 = (n^{2} - (n - 1)^{2}) * \frac{h^{2}  }{8 mL^{2} }

              = 1.8 * 10^{-30}J

If a dog is mass iS 14.3 kg what is it’s weight on earth
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Weight of the dog on surface of earth is 140.14 Newton.

Given:

mass of the dog = 14.3 kg

To find:

Weight of the dog = ?

Formula used:

Weight of the dog is given by,

W = mg

Where, W = weight of the dog

m = mass of the dog

g = acceleration due to gravity

Solution:

Weight of the dog is given by,

W = mg

Where, W = weight of the dog

m = mass of the dog = 14.3 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity

W = 14.3 × 9.8

W = 140.14 Newton

Weight of the dog on surface of earth is 140.14 Newton.

A baseball has mass 0.147 kg. If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 44.5 m/s and the batted ball's velocity is 55
Anit [1.1K]

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of a baseball is 0.147 kg

Initial velocity of the baseball is 44.5 m/s

The ball is moved in the opposite direction with a velocity of 55.5 m/s

It is required to find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat.

Change in momentum,

\Delta p=mv-mu\\\\\Delta p=m(v-u)\\\\\Delta p=0.147\times ((-55.5)-44.5)\\\\\Delta p=-14.7\ kg-m/s\\\\|\Delta p|=14.7\ kg-m/s

Impulse = 14.7 kg-m/s

Therefore, the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat is 14.7 kg-m/s
