This is an interesting (read tricky!) variation of Rydberg Eqn calculation.
Rydberg Eqn: 1/λ = R [1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2]
Where λ is the wavelength of the light; 1282.17 nm = 1282.17×10^-9 m
R is the Rydberg constant: R = 1.09737×10^7 m-1
n2 = 5 (emission)
Hence 1/(1282.17 ×10^-9) = 1.09737× 10^7 [1/n1^2 – 1/25^2]
Some rearranging and collecting up terms:
1 = (1282.17 ×10^-9) (1.09737× 10^7)[1/n2 -1/25]
1= 14.07[1/n^2 – 1/25]
1 =14.07/n^2 – (14.07/25)
14.07n^2 = 1 + 0.5628
n = √(14.07/1.5628) = 3

The electron moves to energy level n = 3

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The term of package of electromagnetic wave radiation energy was first introduced by Max Planck. He termed it with photons with the magnitude is :

\large {\boxed {E = h \times f}}

<em>E = Energi of A Photon ( Joule )</em>

<em>h = Planck's Constant ( 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js )</em>

<em>f = Frequency of Eletromagnetic Wave ( Hz )</em>

\texttt{ }

The photoelectric effect is an effect in which electrons are released from the metal surface when illuminated by electromagnetic waves with large enough of radiation energy.

\large {\boxed {E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \Phi}}

\large {\boxed {E = qV + \Phi}}

<em>E = Energi of A Photon ( Joule )</em>

<em>m = Mass of an Electron ( kg )</em>

<em>v = Electron Release Speed ( m/s )</em>

<em>Ф = Work Function of Metal ( Joule )</em>

<em>q = Charge of an Electron ( Coulomb )</em>

<em>V = Stopping Potential ( Volt )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem !

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

initial shell = n₁ = 5

wavelength = λ = 1282.17 nm = 1.28217 × 10⁻⁶ m

<u>Unknown:</u>

final shell = n₂ = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>We will use this following formula to solve this problem:</em>

\Delta E = R (\frac{1}{(n_2)^2} - \frac{1}{(n_1)^2})

h \frac{c}{\lambda} = R (\frac{1}{(n_2)^2} - \frac{1}{(n_1)^2})

6.63 \times 10^{-34} \times \frac{3 \times 10^8}{1.28217 \times 10^{-6}} = 2.18 \times 10^{-18} \times ( \frac{1}{(n_2)^2} - \frac{1}{5^2})

1.55128 \times 10^{-19} = 2.18 \times 10^{-18} \times ( \frac{1}{(n_2)^2} - \frac{1}{5^2})

( \frac{1}{(n_2)^2} - \frac{1}{5^2}) = \frac{16}{225}

\frac{1}{(n_2)^2} = \frac{1}{25} + \frac{16}{225}

\frac{1}{(n_2)^2} = \frac{1}{9}

(n_2)^2 = 9

n_2 = \sqrt{9}

\boxed{n_2 = 3}

A force of 6.0 N gives a 2.0 kg block an acceleration of 3.0
Semenov [28]

Explanation:

The Net Force of the object can be written by:

Fnet = ma

where m is the mass of the object in <em>kg</em>

a is the acceleration of the object in <em>m/s^2</em>

Hence by applying the formula we get:

Fnet = (2.0)(3.0)

= 6N

We also know that Net force is also the sum of all forces acting on an object. In this case Friction and the Pushing Force is acting on the object. Hence we can write that:

Fnet = Pushing Force + (-Friction)

6N = 6N - Friction

Friction = 0N

Hence the<u> </u><u>f</u><u>orce of friction is 0N.</u>

Rom4ik [11]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The distance will be 1800 m

<h2>Explanation</h2>

As in question

Time = 15 min

Time = 15 x 60 sec = 900 sec

Speed = 2 m/s

We know that

Distance = Speed x Time

Distance = 2 x 900

Distance = 1800 m

So, the answer is 1800 m
