Why do helium balloons float? Talk about density of atoms and compare to elements in the air.

The helium balloon displaces an amount of air. As long as the weight of the helium balloon fabric is lighter than the air it displaces, the balloon will float in the air. It turns out helium is a lot lighter than air.

In an experiment you measure a first-order red line for Hydrogen at an angle difference of ΔΘ = 22.78o. The diffraction grating
azamat

Answer:

a) wavelength = 656.3 nm

b)  the value of Rydberg's constant for this measurement is 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹

Explanation:

Given that;

angle of diffraction Θₓ = 22.78°

incident angle Θ₁ = 0

slit separation d  = 5900 lines per cm = 1/5900 cm = 10⁻²/5900 m = 0.01/5900 m

order of diffraction n = 1

wavelength λ = ?

to find the wavelength, we use the expression

λ = d (sinΘ₁ + sinΘₓ) / n

To find the wavelength λ;

λ = 0.01/5900 × (sin0 + sin22.78° )

λ = 6.5626 × 10⁻⁷ m

λ = 656.3 x 10⁻⁹ m

∴ λ = 656.3 nm

b)

According Balnur's  series spectral lines; n₁ = 3, n₂ = 2 and

λ = R [ 1/n₂² - 1/n₁²]

where  R is Rydberg's constant

from λ = R [ 1/n₂² - 1/n₁²]

R = 1/λ [n₂²n₁² / n₁² - n₂²]

R = 10⁹/ 656.3 [ 9 × 4 / 9 - 4 ]

R = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹

Therefore the value of Rydberg's constant for this measurement is 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹

The perimeter of a sector of a circle is the sum of the two sides formed by the radii and the length of the included arc. A sect
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Length of the arc of this sector, l = 14 cm

Explanation:

It is given that, the perimeter of a sector of a circle is the sum of the two sides formed by the radii and the length of the included arc.

Perimeter of sector, P = 28 cm

Area of sector, A=49\ cm^2

According to figure,

2r + l = 28 ............(1)

Area of sector, A=\dfrac{\theta}{360}\times \pi r^2

Where, \theta is in radian and \theta=\dfrac{l}{r}

Since, 1^{\circ}=\dfrac{\pi}{180}\ radian

A=\dfrac{l}{2\pi r}\times \pi r^2

r=\dfrac{98}{l}

Put the value of r in equation (1) so,

2\times (\dfrac{98}{l})+l=28

l^2-28l+196=0

On solving above equation for l we get, l = 14 cm. So, the length of the arc of this sector is 14 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.
