7 0

Answer:

10

Explanation:

 Lets say that a,b,c,d,e are the five allowed energy states in order of decreasing energy. Then the number of possible different spectral lines comes from the electron dropping from a high state to a lower state. So, they will do so in following ways:

a - b

a - c

a - d

a- e

b - c

b - d

b- e

c - d

c- e

d- e

Ans- Ten different possible energy jumps giving six different colors or lines in the spectrum.

What is the difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke
Doss [256]
Heat exhaustion is usually accompanied by a fever no higher than 104 degrees Fahrenheit, excessive thirst, nausea, fainting, cool and clammy skin, weakness, muscle aches, heavy sweating, slow heartbeat and dizziness. Heatstroke may develop following heat exhaustion if the condition is not treated.

What is the thinnest film of MgF₂ (n = 1.38) on glass that produces a strong reflection for orange light with a wavelength of 60
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Thickness is 217 nm

Explanation:

For a thin film, constructive and destructive interference each has its own effects. Here constructive interference causes the light to be strongly reflected.  The thickness can be determined from

2\times t\times n \times sin\theta=m\lambda

here n is refractive index 1.38, m=1 , \theta=0, \lambda=600 nm

t=\frac{600 \times 10^{-9}}{2\times 1.38} \\t=217 nm

Tarzan plans to cross a gorge by swinging in an arc from a hanging vine. If his arms are capable of exerting a force of 1420 N o
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Angular velocity:

w=1.2/s

Linear velocity:

v=6.24m/s

Explanation:

When he swings he es ina a circular movement with radius 5.2m. To maintain this circular movement at any time there must be total force on Tarzan equal to the centripetal force:

F_{cent}=m*r*w^{2}

where m is his mass, r the radius and w the angular velocity. At the lowest point on Tarzan there are two forces acting, gravity and the rope tension, this rope tension equals the force on Tarzan arms:

F_{tot}=T-W

Where T is the tension on his arms, and W the weigth calculated as:

W=m*g

Where g is the acceleration of gravity. replacing this and remembering that the total force must equal the centripetal force:

F_{tot}=T-m*g

F_{cent}=m*r*w^{2}=T-m*g

Solving for w:

w=\sqrt{\frac{T/m-g}{r}}=\sqrt{\frac{1420N/81.9kg-9.8m/s^{2}}{5.2m}}=1.2/s

To get the linear velocity at this point:

v=w*r=1.2/s*5.2m=6.24m/s
