In an experiment you measure a first-order red line for Hydrogen at an angle difference of ΔΘ = 22.78o. The diffraction grating

you are using has 5900 lines per cm.
a) What is the wavelength of this light?

b) What is the value of Rydberg's constant for this measurement?

Answer:

a) wavelength = 656.3 nm

b)  the value of Rydberg's constant for this measurement is 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹

Explanation:

Given that;

angle of diffraction Θₓ = 22.78°

incident angle Θ₁ = 0

slit separation d  = 5900 lines per cm = 1/5900 cm = 10⁻²/5900 m = 0.01/5900 m

order of diffraction n = 1

wavelength λ = ?

to find the wavelength, we use the expression

λ = d (sinΘ₁ + sinΘₓ) / n

To find the wavelength λ;

λ = 0.01/5900 × (sin0 + sin22.78° )

λ = 6.5626 × 10⁻⁷ m

λ = 656.3 x 10⁻⁹ m

∴ λ = 656.3 nm

b)

According Balnur's  series spectral lines; n₁ = 3, n₂ = 2 and

λ = R [ 1/n₂² - 1/n₁²]

where  R is Rydberg's constant

from λ = R [ 1/n₂² - 1/n₁²]

R = 1/λ [n₂²n₁² / n₁² - n₂²]

R = 10⁹/ 656.3 [ 9 × 4 / 9 - 4 ]

R = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹

Therefore the value of Rydberg's constant for this measurement is 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹

A 86 kg human stands on the surface of Venus. The mass of Venus is 4.9 × 1024 kg and its radius is 6.1 × 106 m. Collapse questio
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

755.37 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of venus=m_1=4.9\times 10^{24}kg

Radius=r=6.1\times 10^6m

Mass of human=m_2=86 kg

We know that the gravitational force between two bodies

F=G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

Where G=Gravitational constant=6.67\times 10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2

Using the formula

The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by Venus on the human=F=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 86\times 4.9\times 10^{24}}{(6.1\times 10^6)^2}

The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by Venus on the human=F=755.37N

5g of ammonium nitrate was dissolved in 60g of water in an insulated container. The temperature at the start of the reaction was
Minchanka [31]

Answer: The energy absorbed by the reaction from the water is 996 Joules.

Explanation:

Energy absorbed by the reaction or energy lost by the water to the reaction,Q.

Mass of the the reaction  ,m = 60 g

Specific heat of water = c = 4.15 J\g ^oC

Change is temperature=\Delta T=19^oC-23^oC=-4^oC

Q=mc\Delta T=60 g\times 4.15 J\g ^oC\times (-4^oC)=-996 Joules

Negative sigh indicates that energy was given by the water to the reaction.

The energy absorbed by the reaction from the water is 996 Joules.
