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

1 answer:

Oliga [24]4 years ago

8 0

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

Describe the 3 types of projectiles.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:Although any object in motion through space (for example a thrown baseball, kicked football, fired bullet, thrown arrow, stone released from catapult) are projectiles, they are commonly found in warfare and sports.

When discussing Newton's laws of motion,which terms do people most likely yse when talking about Newton's third law of motion?

mestny [16]

When discussing Newton's laws of motion, particularly Newton's third law of motion, the terms that almost everyone will use are "action" and "reaction".

You must not take this to mean that they understand what they're talking about.

You have been hired to design a spring-launched roller coaster that will carry two passengers per car. The car goes up a 12-m-hi

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Vmax=11.53 m/s

Explanation:

from conservation of energy

$E_A} =E_{B}$

Spring potential energy =potential energy due to elevation

0.5*k*x²= mg $(h_{B}-h_{A} )$ =mgh

0.5*k*2.3²= 430*9.81*6

k=9568.92 N/m

For safety reason

k"=1.13 *k= 1.13*9568.92

k"=10812.88 N/m

agsin from conservation of energy

$E_A} =E_{C}$

spring potential energy=change in kinetic energy

0.5*k"*x²=0.5*m* $V_{max}^{2}$

10812.88 *2.3²=430* $V_{max}^{2}$

$V_{max}$ =11.53 m/s

A stone is dropped into a well. The sound of the splash is heard 3.5 seconds later. What is the depth of the well? Take the spee

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The depth of the well, s = 54.66 m

Given:

time, t = 3.5 s

speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

Solution:

By using second equation of motion for the distance traveled by the stone when dropped into a well:

$s = ut +\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

Since, the stone is dropped, its initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

and acceleration is due to gravity only, the above eqn can be written as:

$s = \frac{1}{2}gt'^{2}$

$s = \frac{1}{2}9.8t^{2} = 4.9t'^{2}$ (1)

Now, when the sound inside the well travels back, the distance covered,s is given by:

$s = v\times t''$

$s = 343\times t''$ (2)

Now, total time taken by the sound to travel:

t = t' + t''

t'' = 3.5 - t' (3)

Using eqn (2) and (3):

s = 343(3.5 - t') (4)

from eqn (1) and (4):

$4.9t'^{2} = 343(3.5 - t')$

$4.9t'^{2} + 343t' - 1200.5 = 0$

Solving the above quadratic eqn:

t' = 3.34 s

Now, substituting t' = 3.34 s in eqn (2)

s = 54.66 m
