Hydrogen line spectrum lies entirely within visible range

Physics

mart [117]3 years ago

No, that's silly.

You've got your Pfund series where electrons fall down to the 5th level,
your Brackett series where they fall to the 4th level, and your Paschen
series where they fall to the 3rd level.  All of those transitions ploop out
photons at Infrared wavelengths.

THEN next you get your Balmer series, where the electrons fall in
to the 2nd level.  Most of those are at visible wavelengths, but even
a few of the Balmer transitions are in the Ultraviolet.

And then there's the Lyman series, where electrons fall all the way
down to the #1 level.  Those are ALL in the ultraviolet.

What is the sum of 9260 and 3240?
Ket [755]
The sum is the result of adding 9260 and 3240 together. Each number can be broken down into constituent parts in order to make addition easier. Each place in the number represents its value, so a 2 in the hundreds place represents 200.
You can separate numbers out this way to make it easier to add them. 9260 can be broken down into 9000+200+60 while 3240 is 3000+200+40. You can then add these six numbers together.

60+40 = 100
200+200 = 400
9000+3000 = 12000

Then add your three partial results together to receive the final answer:

12000+400+100 = 12500

5. A cheetah with a mass of 70 kg was clocked running at 72 mph (32 m's). How many joules of
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Kinetic energy = 35840 Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 70kg

Velocity = 32m/s

To find the kinetic energy;

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}

Where, K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}*70*32^{2}

K.E = \frac{1}{2}*70*1024

K.E = 35 * 1024

K.E = 35840 Joules.

Therefore, the kinetic energy possessed by the cheetah is 35840 Joules.

Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading east and the other west. the eastbound train travels at 95 miles per
marissa [1.9K]
The east bound train travels at a speed of 95 mile per hour and the west bound train at 75 miles per hour.
Assuming eastbound train will cover distance x then the west bound train will cover distance 272-x .
Therefore, since time taken will be the same then; x/95 = (272-x)/75
          = 75x = 95 (272-x)
          = 75x = 25840 - 95x
          = 170 x= 25840
                     x = 152 miles
Thus time taken will either be x/95 or (272-x)/75
           = 152/95
           = 1.6 hours or 1 hour 36 minutes
