antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Both balls have the same speed.

Explanation:

Janelle throws the two balls from the same height, with the same speed. Both balls will have the same potential and kinetic energy. Energy must be conserved. When the balls pass Michael, again they must have the same potential and kinetic energy.

(a) What is the ionization energy of a hydrogen atom that is in the n = 6 excited state? (b) For a hydrogen atom, determine the

crimeas [40]

Answer:

(a) 0.3778 eV

(b) Ratio = 0.0278

Explanation:

The Bohr's formula for the calculation of the energy of the electron in nth orbit is:

$E=\frac {-13.6}{n^2}\ eV$

(a) The energy of the electron in n= 6 excited state is:

$E=\frac {-13.6}{6^2}\ eV$

$E=-0.3778\ eV$

Ionisation energy is the amount of this energy required to remove the electron. Thus, |E| = 0.3778 eV

(b) For first orbit energy is:

$E=\frac {-13.6}{1^2}\ eV$

$E=-13.6\ eV$

$Ratio=\frac {E_6}{E_1}$

$Ratio=\frac {-0.3778}{-13.6}$

Ratio = 0.0278

An airplane flying at an altitude of 6 miles passes directly over a radar antenna. When the airplane is 10 miles away (s = 10),

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

altitude of the Plane $h=6\ miles$

When Airplane is $s=10\ miles$ away

Distance is changing at the rate of $\frac{\mathrm{d} s}{\mathrm{d} t}=290\ mph$

From diagram we can write as

$h^2+x^2=s^2$

differentiate above equation w.r.t time

$2h\frac{\mathrm{d} h}{\mathrm{d} t}+2x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=2s\frac{\mathrm{d} s}{\mathrm{d} t}$

as altitude is not changing therefore $\frac{\mathrm{d} h}{\mathrm{d} t}=0$

$0+x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=s\frac{\mathrm{d} s}{\mathrm{d} t}$

at $s=10\ miles\ and\ h=6\ miles$

substitute the value we get $x=\sqrt{10^2-6^2}=8\ miles$

$8\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=10\times 290$

$\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=362.5\ mph$

URGENT <br><br> Give three examples of models that you see every day

umka2103 [35]

Models are very common. The ingredients list on a bottle of ketchup is a model of its contents, and margarine is a model of butter. A box score from a baseball game is a model of the actual event. A trial over an automobile accident is a model of the actual accident.
