As you stand by the side of the road, a car approaches you at a constant speed, sounding its horn, and you hear a frequency of 8

0.0 Hz. After the car goes by, you hear a frequency of 60.0 Hz. What is the speed of the car

Answer: velocity of the car is 113.33m/s

Explanation:

From Doppler effect,

in the case which the source is moving towards the observer at rest

f2 = v/(v-vs) *f1

where f2 is the final observed frequency

f1 is the initial observed frequency

v = 340m/s (speed of sound in air)

vs = velocity of the source of sound.

rearranging the above equation

f2*(v - vs) = f1* v

vs = (f1* v/f2) - v

but f1 = 80Hz

f2 = 60Hz

v = 340m/s

substituting,

vs = (80 x 340)/60 - 340

vs = 453.33 - 340

vs = 113.33m/s

velocity of the car is 113.33m/s

Would a bond between potassium and iodine most likely be covalent or ionic? Explain your answer
Ugo [173]
A covalent bond is between two nonmetals. An ionic bond is between a metal and a nonmetal. Potassium is a metal and iodine is a nonmetal, so their bond would most likely be ionic.

The energy E of the electron in a hydrogen atom can be calculated from the Bohr formula: =E−Ryn2 In this equation Ry stands for
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

  λ = 162 10⁻⁷ m

Explanation:

Bohr's model for the hydrogen atom gives energy by the equation

         E_{n} = - k²e² / 2m (1 / n²)

Where k is the Coulomb constant, e and m the charge and mass of the electron respectively and n is an integer

The Planck equation

           E = h f

The speed of light is

          c = λ f

          E = h c /λ

For a transition between two states we have

          E_{n} - E_{m} = - k²e² / 2m (1 / n_{f}² -1 / n_{i}²)

           h c / λ = -k² e² / 2m (1 / n_{f}² - 1/ n_{i}²)

           1 / λ = (- k² e² / 2m h c) (1 / n_{f}² - 1/n_{i}²)

The Rydberg constant with a value of 1,097 107 m-1 is the result of the constant in parentheses

Let's calculate the emission of the transition

            1 /λ = 1.097 10⁷ (1/10² - 1/8²)

            1 / λ = 1.097 10⁷ (0.01 - 0.015625)

            1 /λ = 0.006170625 10⁷

            λ = 162 10⁻⁷ m

The potential difference between A and B is 5.0 V. A proton starts from rest at A. When it reaches B what is its kinetic energy?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

total kinetic energy is 8 × 10^{-19} J

Explanation:

given data

potential difference = 5 V

e = 1.60 × 10^{-19} C

to find out

what is kinetic energy

solution

we will apply here conservation of energy that is

change in potential energy is equal to change in kinetic energy

so

change potential energy is e × potential difference

change potential energy =  1.60 × 10^{-19} × 5

change potential energy = 8 × 10^{-19} J

so change in kinetic energy  = 8 × 10^{-19} J

and we know proton start from rest that mean ( kinetic energy is 0 ) so

change in KE is total KE

total kinetic energy is 8 × 10^{-19} J
