An electron in the n = 5 level of an h atom emits a photon of wavelength 1282.17 nm. to what energy level does the electron move

lions [1.4K]

This is an interesting (read tricky!) variation of Rydberg Eqn calculation.
Rydberg Eqn: 1/λ = R [1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2]
Where λ is the wavelength of the light; 1282.17 nm = 1282.17×10^-9 m
R is the Rydberg constant: R = 1.09737×10^7 m-1
n2 = 5 (emission)
Hence 1/(1282.17 ×10^-9) = 1.09737× 10^7 [1/n1^2 – 1/25^2]
Some rearranging and collecting up terms:
1 = (1282.17 ×10^-9) (1.09737× 10^7)[1/n2 -1/25]
1= 14.07[1/n^2 – 1/25]
1 =14.07/n^2 – (14.07/25)
14.07n^2 = 1 + 0.5628
n = √(14.07/1.5628) = 3

Two people stand facing each other at roller skating rink then push off each other

9966 [12]

a) 0 kg m/s

b) 0 kg m/s

c) +3 m/s

d) 60 N

Explanation:

a)

The momentum of an object is a vector quantity given by:

$p=mv$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of the object

In this problem, we have a system of two people, so the total momentum will be the sum of the individual momenta of the two people:

$p=p_1 + p_2$

Which can be rewritten as

$p=m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2$

where $m_1,m_2$ are the masses of the two people and $u_1,u_2$ their initial velocities.

However, the two people are initially at rest, so

$u_1 = 0\\u_2 = 0$

Therefore the total momentum is

$p=0+0=0$

b)

The principle of conservation of momentum states that when there are no external forces acting on a system, the total momentum of the system is conserved, so we can write:

$p_i = p_f$

where

$p_i$ is the total momentum of the system before

$p_f$ is the total momentum of the system after

In this problem,

$p_i = 0$

As we calculated in part a: this is because the total momentum of the two people before they push off each other is zero.

Therefore, according to the law of conservation of momentum,

$p_f = p_i = 0$

So the total momentum is zero also after they push off each other.

c)

The total momentum of the girl and the boy after they push off each other can be written as:

$p_f = m_1 v_1 + m_2 v_2$ (1)

where:

$m_1 = 30 kg$ is the mass of the girl

$v_1 = -5 m/s$ is her velocity (she moves backward, so the negative sign)

$m_2 = 50 kg$ is the mass of the boy

$v_2$ is the velocity of the boy

As calculated in part b), we also know that the total momentum of the girl and the boy is

$p_f = 0$ (2)

By combining eq(1) and eq(2) we get

$0=m_1 v_1 + m_2 v_2$

And solving for v2 we find the velocity of the boy:

$v_2=-\frac{m_1 v_1}{m_2}=-\frac{(30)(-5)}{50}=+3 m/s$

and the positive sign means he is moving forward.

d)

We can solve this part by applying the impulse theorem, which states that the change in momentum of an object is equal to the product between the force applied on it and the duration of the collision:

$\Delta p = F\Delta t$

where

$\Delta p$ is the change in momentum

F is the force

$\Delta t$ is the time during which the force is applied

In this problem:

$\Delta t = 2.5 s$

For the boy, the change in momentum is:

$\Delta p = m_2 (v_2 - u_2)$

And since

$m_2 = 50 kg\\u_2 = 0 m/s\\v_2 = 3 m/s$

We have

$\Delta p = (50)(3-0)=150 kg m/s$

So, the force exerted between the boy and the girl is:

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=\frac{150}{2.5}=60 N$

A circus tightrope walker weighing 800 N is standing in the middle of a 15 meter long cable stretched between two posts. The cab

Lorico [155]

Answer:

T = 10010 N

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the translational equilibrium relation, let's set a reference frame

X axis

Fₓ-Fₓ = 0

Fₓ = Fₓ

whereby the horizontal components of the tension in the cable cancel

Y Axis

$F_{y} + F_{y} - W =0$

2 $F_{y}$ = W

let's use trigonometry to find the angles

tan θ = y / x

θ = tan⁻¹ (0.30 / 0.50 L)

θ = tan⁻¹ (0.30 / 0.50 15)

θ = 2.29º

the components of stress are

F_{y} = T sin θ

we substitute

2 T sin θ = W

T = W / 2sin θ

T = $\frac{ 800}{ 2sin 2.29}$

T = 10010 N

Unless there is service it wifi, no. To access most features on a cellphone you need wifi or service. These features can include communicating with others or watching a video. Cellphones are practically useless without internet connection.
