When the tube is filled with mercury vapor, as in this case, a sharp drop in the collected current is observed when the accelera

ting potential reaches 4.9 VV. The current drops suddenly to a negligible value and slowly increases again when the accelerating potential is above 4.9 VV. What is the energy EEE absorbed by the atomic electrons in the mercury atom when the accelerating potential is 4.9 VV

Answer:

4.9 eV .

Explanation:

It is the case of discharge through mercury tube light . In it , mercury  atoms are exited due to which electrons are sent to higher energy  level . Here current drops to zero because electrons are excited to higher level . Energy are absorbed in quantised manner . Energy absorbed by electrons will be 4.9 eV . That means , difference in energy  between two energy level is  4.9 eV .

mario62 [17]

Answer:Average Velocity of the trip=98.77km/h

Explanation:

Given that:

Black Panther started his journey with

Distance ran towards east  = 567.5km

Time ran towards east  = 2.3 hours

and then  turned back,

Distance ran towards west,  = 2218 km

Time taken towards west,  = 1.2 hours

Let us treat the westward movement as negative movement of the east

So total displacement =567.5 km east + (-2218km east )= 1,650.5km

But it seems the value of the distance ran west is wrong , because i do not think he can run  2218km under 1.2hours considering he ran 567.5m due east at 2.3hours .

So Let we use 221.8 km as distance ran due west.

So that Total Displacement becomes = 567.5 km east + (-221.8km east )= 345.7km

Total time = 2.3 + 1.2 = 3.5hrs.

Average velocity = Total displacement / total time  

.345.7km / 3.5hr =  98.77km/h

A bird takes off from the tree and after 5 s is flying at a speed of 10 m/s. Calculate
Volgvan

Answer:

10miles/second

Explanation:

Change in velocity of the bird is expressed as the difference between the final velocity and initial velocity of the body.

Change in velocity = Final velocity - initial velocity

Since the bird takes off from the tree, the initial velocity of the bird = 0miles/sec

Final velocity = 10miles/secs

Change in velocity = 10-0

Change in velocity = 10miles/second

What is the term that describes waves that require a medium through which to travel?
gladu [14]

Answer:

Mechanical waves are waves that require a medium. This means that they have to have some sort of matter to travel through. These waves travel when molecules in the medium collide with each other passing on energy. One example of a mechanical wave is sound.

A block is resting on a platform that is rotating at an angular speed of 2.4 rad/s. The coefficient of static friction between t
Sloan [31]

Answer:

r = 0m is the Minimum distance from the axis at which the block can remain in place wothout skidding.

Explanation:

From a sum of forces:

Ff = m*a   where Ff = μ * N    and a = \frac{V^2}{r}=\omega^2*r

N - m*g = 0   So, N = m*g.   Replacing everything on the original equation:

\mu*m*g = m*\omega^2*r   (eq2)

Solving for r:

r = \frac{\mu*g}{\omega^2}=1.41m

If we analyze eq2 you can conclude that as r grows, the friction has to grow (assuming that ω is constant), so the smallest distance would be 0 and the greatest 1.41m. Beyond that distance, μ has to be greater than 0.83.
