Answer:

True,According to Isaac Newton believes that Gravity is responsible for drawing attraction which is directly proportional to product of their masses but inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Answer:

1. bending of light in gravitational fields.

2. effect of gravitational redshift.

3. perihelion precission of mecury.

Explanation:

1 bending of light in gravitational fields, we can think of it like this:

by noting the change in position s of stars as they pass near the sun on the celetial sphere, so since the sun creates a gravitational field even the star thats not in our line of side(behind the sun) can be seen because its light is bent.

2. effects of gravitational redshift:

this says that if you are in the gravitational field, your clock moves slower when it is seen by a distant observer.

3. perihelion precission of mecury:

according to Newtonian physics a two body system consisting of a lone orbiting the spherical mass would trace out an ellipse with the center of mass of the system as the focus but mercury deviates from that precission. then according to Einstein, the change in orientation of the orbital ellipsewithin its orbital plane is the effect of gravitation being mediated by the curvature of space-time.

A 20 cm-radius ball is uniformly charged to 71 nC.

artcher [175]

Answer:

Part a)

$\rho = 2.12\mu C/m^3$

Part b)

$q_1 = 1.11 nC$

$q_2 = 8.88 nC$

$q_3 = 71 nC$

Part c)

$E_1 = 3996 N/C$

$E_2 = 7992 N/C$

$E_3 = 15975 N/C$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that charge density is the ratio of total charge and total volume

So here the volume of the charge ball is given as

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi R^3$

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi(0.20)^3$

$V = 0.0335 m^3$

now the charge density of the ball is given as

$\rho = \frac{71 nC}{0.0335} = 2.12\mu C/m^3$

Part b)

Now the charge enclosed by the surface is given as

$q = \rho V$

at radius of 5 cm

$q = (2.12 \mu C/m^3)(\frac{4}{3}\pi(0.05)^3$

$q = 1.11 nC$

at radius of 10 cm

$q = (2.12 \mu C/m^3)(\frac{4}{3}\pi(0.10)^3$

$q = 8.88 nC$

at radius of 20 cm

$q = 71 nC$

Part c)

As we know that electric field is given as

$E = \frac{kq}{r^2}$

so we have electric field at r = 5 cm

$E_1 = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(1.11 nC)}{0.05^2}$

$E_1 = 3996 N/C$

electric field at r = 10 cm

$E_2 = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(8.88 nC)}{0.10^2}$

$E_2 = 7992 N/C$

electric field at r = 20 cm

$E_3 = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(71 nC)}{0.20^2}$

$E_3 = 15975 N/C$

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.

Eddi Din [679]

Ahhh this going to be confusing sorry...
1. α = Δω / Δt = 28 rad/s / 19s = 1.47 rad/s²

2. Θ = ½αt² = ½ * 1.47rad/s² * (19s)² = 266 rads

3. I = ½mr² = ½ * 8.7kg * (0.33m)² = 0.47 kg·m²

4. ΔEk = ½Iω² = ½ * 0.47kg·m² * (28rad/s)² = 186 J

5. a = α r = 1.47rad/s² * 0.33m = 0.49 m/s²

6. a = ω² r = (14rad/s)² * 0.33m = 65 m/s²

7. v = ω r = 28rad/s * ½(0.33m) = 4.62 m/s

8. s = Θ r = 266 rads * 0.33m = 88 m
