Anettt [7]3 years ago

We have that the most stable nuclei are the ones with the highest average binding energy. We see that Nitrogen has a mass number of 15 and that in this region of the graph average binding energy is low. Silver and Gold are along a line where there is a constant decline in average binding energy; silver has more than gold. However, we see that at the start of this decline, there is Fe 56. This region has the elements with the highest average binding energy; Nickel with a mass number of 58 is right there and thus it is the most stable nucleus out of the listed ones.

the frequency of a beam of uv light is 1.0 ×10 ^15hz what is the energy in one quantum of this light express it in ev?

kap26 [50]

Answer:

4.14 eV

Explanation:

f = 1.0 ×10^15 Hz

h= 6.63×10^-34 J s ( this is called PLANCK 'S CONSTANT)

ENEGY = E = ?

E = hf ( THIS IS FORMULA FOR ENERGY OF ONE QUANTA OR ONE PHOTON )

E= 6.63×10^-34×1.0 ×10^15

E = 6.63×10^-19 J

As 1eV = 1.6×10^-19 J so changing energy in eV from joules we will divide energy by 1.6×10^-19

hence E in eV = 6.63×10^-19/(1.6×10^-19)

E = 4.14 eV

Consider two points in an electric field. The potential at point 1, V1, is 33 V. The potential at point 2, V2, is 175 V. An elec

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

ΔU = e(V₂ - V₁) and its value ΔU = -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J

Explanation:

Since the electric potential at point 1 is V₁ = 33 V and the electric potential at point 2 is V₂ = 175 V, when the electron is accelerated from point 1 to point 2, there is a change in electric potential ΔV which is given by ΔV = V₂ - V₁.

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ΔV = V₂ - V₁.

ΔV = 175 V - 33 V.

ΔV = 142 V

The change in electric potential energy ΔU = eΔV = e(V₂ - V₁) where e = electron charge = -1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C and ΔV = electric potential change from point 1 to point 2 = 142 V.

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ΔU = eΔV

ΔU = -1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C × 142 V

ΔU = -227.484 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

ΔU = -2.27484 × 10⁻²¹ J

ΔU ≅ -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J

So, the required equation for the electric potential energy change is

ΔU = e(V₂ - V₁) and its value ΔU = -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J

Which is a more objective measurement, sound intensity or loudness, and why? 1. sound intensity is exactly same as loudness. 2.

fgiga [73]

The correct answer is:
<span>2. sound intensity is a more objective and physical attribute of a sound wave because loudness can vary from person to person

indeed, sound intensity is a measurable quantity, and so it is objective, while loudness is the subjective perception of the sound level, so it varies from person to person.</span>

When does a driver have to stop for a school bus

Tcecarenko [31]

A driver have to stop for a school bus when the red lights are flashing and there is no barrier between his/her vehicle and the bus.

<h3>What are traffic rules?</h3>

Traffic rules are rules that are expected to follow by the road users for the safety of everyone using the road.

For instance, when the red lights are flashing , it simply means to stop, while the green light means that the vehicle can continue to move, and yellow light means to be at alert to move.
