Doubly ionized lithium Li2+ (Z = 3) and triply ionized beryllium Be3+ (Z = 4) each emit a line spectrum. For a certain series of

lines in the lithium spectrum, the shortest wavelength is 40.5 nm. For the same series of lines in the beryllium spectrum, what is the shortest wavelength?

Answer:

tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 22.78 nm

Explanation:

Bohr's model for the hydrogen atom has been used by other atoms with a single electric charge by changing the number of charges by the charge of the new atom (atomic number)

      E_{n}= k e² / 2a₀ (1 /n²)

      ao = h'² / k m e²               h' = h/2πi

For another atom with a single electron in the last layer

      a₀ ’= h’² / k m (Ze)²  

      a₀ ’= a₀ / Z²

Therefore, when replacing in the equation

      E_{n} = - Z²  Eo/n²

     E₀ = 13,606 eV

The transition occurs when the electron stops from one level to another

         E_{n} -  E_{m} = Z² E₀ (1 / n² - 1 / m²) = Z² ΔE

Let's relate this expression to the wavelength

       c = λ f

      E = h f

      E = h c /λ

      h c / λ = Z² ΔE

     λ = 1 / Z² (hc / ΔE)

     λ = 1 / Z² λ_hydrogen

Let's apply this last equation to our case

Lithium Z = 3

     E_{n} = - 9 Eo / n²

     

      40.5 10-9 = 1/9 λ_hydrogen

Beryllium Z = 4

      λ = 1/16 λ_hydrogen

Let's write our two equations is and solve

     40.5 10-9 = 1/9 λ_hydrogen

    tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 1/ 16 λ_hydrogen

      40.5 10⁻⁹ = 1/9 (16 \lambda_{Be} )

    tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 40.5 9/16

  tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 22.78 nm

A force does work on an object if a component of the force is
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

A force does work on an object if a component of the force is parallel to the displacement of the object.

Explanation:

Work, a measurement of energy is said to be done when a force applied to an object results in the movement of that object to a certain distance and direction. Force is the act of push or pulls occurs on an object as a result of the interaction between that object with another one and displacement is the distance and direction covered by that object as a result of the force applied on it.

The work done (W) by a constant force (F) is equal to the product of the force in the direction of displacement of the object and the distance (d) moved by the object i.e., W = F * d.

The angle between the displacement and the force is θ, then the work done, W = Fd cos θ  ........ (1)

Positive work - Force acts in the same direction with respect to the displacement of the object. Here, θ is zero, so cos θ i.e., cos 0 is 1. Therefore, from the equation (1), W = Fd (i.e., work done by the force is positive).

Negative work - Force acts in the opposite direction with respect to the displacement of the object.  Here, θ is 180°, so cos θ i.e., cos 180° is -1. Therefore, from the equation (1), W = -Fd (i.e., work done by the force is negative).

If a force is applied to an object and it does not move, then the work done is zero i.e., W = F * 0 = 0. Also, if the force and displacement are at right angle to each other, then θ is 90°. Therefore, from the equation (1), W = 0 since cos 90° is zero.

You have a piece of cork with a volume of 2 cm^3 and a density of 210kg/m^3. You hold it under water and release it.
insens350 [35]

I am sorry if it didn't helped

answers;

Calculate the buoyant force of a piece of cork of 8cm3 that floats in water. Density of cork is 207kg/m3. ?

I need the mass, in order to get the volume to apply t to the Buoyancy formula of: B=(W)object=(m)object(g)

Explanation:

From Archimedes Principle, any object partially or totally submerged in a fluid is buoyed upwards with a force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.

When a 10 V battery is connected to a resistor, 5 A of current flows through the resistor. What is the resistor's value?
SashulF [63]

Given data

*The value of battery voltage is V = 10 V

*The current flows through the resistor is I = 5 A

The formula for the resistor is given by the Ohm's law as

R=\frac{V}{I}

Substitute the values in the above expression as

\begin{gathered} R=\frac{10}{5} \\ =2\text{ ohm} \end{gathered}
