A soccer player applies a force of 48.4 N to a soccer ball while kicking it. If the ball has

AlekseyPX

Answer:

C. 110 m/s2

Explanation:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

Since we have the force and the mass, we can rearrange this equation to solve for acceleration by dividing both sides by mass:

Force/Mass = (Mass x Acceleration)/Mass

Acceleration = Force/Mass

Now we just have to plug in our values and calculate!

Acceleration = 48.4/0.44

Acceleration = 110m/s/s

It is option C. 110 m/s2

Hope this helped!

Calculate the change in the energy of an electron that moves from the n = 3 level to the n = 2 level. What type of light is emit

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Red light

Explanation:

The energy emitted during an electron transition in an atom of hydrogen is given by

$E=E_0 (\frac{1}{n_2^2}-\frac{1}{n_1^2})$

where

$E_0 = 13.6 eV$ is the energy of the lowest level

n1 and n2 are the numbers corresponding to the two levels

Here we have

n1 = 3

n2 = 2

So the energy of the emitted photon is

$E=(13.6) (\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2})=1.9 eV$

Converting into Joules,

$E=(1.9 eV)(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV)=3.0\cdot 10^{-19} J$

And now we can find the wavelength of the emitted photon by using the equation

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where h is the Planck constant and c is the speed of light. Solving for $\lambda$ ,

$\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34})(3\cdot 10^8)}{3.0\cdot 10^{-19}}=6.63\cdot 10^{-7} m = 663 nm$

And this wavelength corresponds to red light.
