Which electron transitions in the Bohr hydrogen atom will produce photons with the shortest wavelengths?

Oliga [24]3 years ago

Those that take the electron from the highest orbital to the lowest (n=1) at this point the energy is -13.6eV. The wavelength is given by c/f. So a large energy (E=hf) gives a short wavelength. Falling from a farther distance out down to the nucleus releases the most energy

How is the direction of light changed when it travels from an optically denser medium to an optically rarer medium????? please a
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The light bends away from the normal

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using Snell's law:

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2

where:

n_1 is the index of refraction of the first medium

n_2 is the index of refraction of the second medium

\theta_1 is the angle of incidence (angle between the incoming ray and the normal to the interface)

\theta_2 is the angle of refraction (angle between the outcoming ray and the normal to the interface)

We can rearrange the equation as

sin \theta_2 = \frac{n_1}{n_2}sin \theta_1

In this problem, light travels from an optically denser medium to an optically rarer medium, so

n_1 > n_2

Therefore, the term \frac{n_1}{n_2} is greater than 1, so

sin \theta_2 > sin \theta_1\\\rightarrow \theta_2 > \theta_1

which means that the angle of refraction is greater than the angle of incidence, and so the light will bend away from the normal.

Hi Pupil Here's Your answer :::

An object moving with constant speed can be accelerated if direction of motion changes. For example, an object moving with a constant speed in a circular path has an acceleration because its direction of motion changes continuously.

The acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring, was written by this woman in 1962.
olga_2 [115]
Rachel Carson was the author of the acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring. The book was published in 1962.
It documented the negative effect that synthetic pesticides have on the environment, specifically on birds.
This book laid bare to the American public what chemical companies indirectly contributed to the environment. 
The public furor this book caused led to the reversal of the national pesticide policy, a nationwide ban on DDT for agricultural uses, and inspired the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
