Potential energy can be calculated by the formula Pe=mgh. Plug in your values:

Pe=mgh
Pe=(6 kg)(9.8m/s^2)(100 m)
Pe=5880 kg x m^2/s^2, or 5880 Joules

A book is pushed off the edge of a table. At what point during the fall will the potential and kinetic energy be equal?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

KE = PE at half the table Height:

Explanation

AT ANY POINT IN THE BOOK'S FALL,

TOTAL E = PE +KE

THE TOTAL E IS CONSTANT

Before the book is pushed off, the total energy is potential

TOT E=PE =MGH

BEFORE THE BOOK HITS THE GROUND, THE TOTAL E IS KINETIC

TOT=KE = MVXV/2

WHEN KE = PE

KE+PE =<u> MGH (STARTING ENERGY SINCE E IS CONSERVED)</u>

<u>OR PE+ PE = MGH</u>

<u>OR MGH' + MGH' =MGH</u>

<u>OR 2H' =</u>H

H' (NEW HEIGHT) =H/2

Current is applied to a molten mixture of AgF , FeCl2 , and AlBr3 . What is produced at each electrode? STRATEGY Rank the cation
ratelena [41]

Answer:

Cathode: Ag

Anode: Br₂

Explanation:

In the cathode must occur a reduction, so it's more likely to a metal atom be in the cathode. For the metals given the reduction reactions and the potential of reduction are:

Ag⁺ + e⁻ ⇒ Ag⁰ E° = + 0.80 V

Fe⁺² + 2e⁻ ⇒ Fe⁰ E° = - 0.44 V

Al⁺³ + 3e⁻ ⇒ Al⁰ E° = -1.66 V

As the potential for Ag is the higher, the reduction will occur for it first, so in the cathode will produce Ag.

For the anode an oxidation must occurs, so the reactions for the nonmetals are:

F₂ + 2e⁻ ⇒ 2F⁻ E° = +2.87 V

Cl₂ + 2e⁻ ⇒ 2Cl⁻ E° = +1.36 V

Br₂ + 2e⁻ ⇒ 2Br⁻ E° = +1.07 V

For oxidation, the less the E°, the faster the reaction will occur, so Br₂ will be formed in the anode.

What is the wavelength of light emitted when the electron in a hydrogen atom undergoes transition from an energy level with n =
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

4.86\times10^{-7}\ \text{m}

Explanation:

R = Rydberg constant = 1.09677583\times 10^7\ \text{m}^{-1}

n_1 = Principal quantum number of an energy level = 2

n_2 = Principal quantum number of an energy level for the atomic electron transition = 4

Wavelength is given by the Rydberg formula

\lambda^{-1}=R\left(\dfrac{1}{n_1^2}-\dfrac{1}{n_2^2}\right)\\\Rightarrow \lambda^{-1}=1.09677583\times 10^7\left(\dfrac{1}{2^2}-\dfrac{1}{4^2}\right)\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\left(1.09677583\times 10^7\left(\dfrac{1}{2^2}-\dfrac{1}{4^2}\right)\right)^{-1}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=4.86\times10^{-7}\ \text{m}

The wavelength of the light emitted is 4.86\times10^{-7}\ \text{m}.
