How are electrons represented in orbitals?

1 answer:

8 0

Electrons move in atomic orbitals (or subshells). there are four different orbital shapes (s p d f). in each shell, the s subshell is at a lower energy than the p. an orbital diagram is used to determine an atom's electron configurations

What are two ways an engineer can build a car in order for it to accelerate faster

Ket [755]

Explanation:

Take F=ma

a = F/m

For a higher, F higher or m lower

Means higher horse power for engine or lower mass for the car

Ballistic data obtained on a firing range show that aerodynamic drag reduces the speed of a .44 magnum revolver bullet from 250

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

0.363999909622

Explanation:

F = Force

m = Mass = 15.6 g

C = Drag coefficient

ρ = Density of air = 1.21 kg/m³

A = Surface area = $\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2$

v = Terminal velocity = $v=210\ m/s$

s = Displacement = 150 m

$a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}$

Force is given by

F = ma

$F=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow ma=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow m\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow C=2\times m\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\times\dfrac{1}{\rho Av^2}\\\Rightarrow C=2\times15.6\times 10^{-3}\dfrac{210^2-250^2}{2\times 150}\times\dfrac{1}{1.21\times\dfrac{\pi}{4}\times (11.2\times 10^{-3})^2(210)^2}\\\Rightarrow C=-0.363999909622$

The drag coefficient is 0.363999909622 (ignoring negative sign)

In a double slit experiment, if the separation between the two slits is 0.050 mm and the distance from the slits to a screen is

meriva

The spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes is 3 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.

<h3>What is double slit experiment?</h3>

The double-slit experiment serves as a proof in current physics that both light and matter may exhibit properties of classically defined waves and particles. It also illustrates the inherently probabilistic nature of quantum mechanical events. Thomas Young carried out the first experiment of this kind employing light in 1802, illustrating how light behaves like a wave. It was formerly believed that light was made up of either waves or particles. About a century later, with the advent of modern physics, it was discovered that light may in fact exhibit behaviour like that of both waves and particles. The identical behaviour of electrons was first shown by Davisson and Germer in 1927, and it was later extended to atoms and molecules.

The separation between the slits, d = 0.05mm = 5×10⁻⁵ m

The distance from the slits to a screen, D = 2.5 m

Let x is the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes when coherent light of wavelength 600 nm illuminates the slits,

λ = 600nm = 6× 10⁻⁷ m

We know that the bright fringe is given by :

y = nλD/d

So, the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes is :

x = 2λD/d - λD/d

x = λD/d

x = 6 × 10⁻⁷ × 2.5/5 × 10⁻⁵

x = 0.03 m

x = 3 cm
