Answer:

a) 23.2 e V

b) energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV

Explanation:

given,

energy at ground level = -13.6 e V

energy at first exited state = - 3.4 e V

A photon of energy ionized from ground state and electron of energy K is released.

h ν₁ - 13.6 = K

K combine with photon in first exited state giving out photon of energy

h\nu_2 =\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}=\dfrac{12400}{466}

            = 26.6 e V

h c = 6.626 ×  10⁻³⁴ ×  3  × 10⁸  = 12400 e V A°

K + ( 3.4 ) = 26.6 e V

a) energy of free electron

K = 26.6 - 3.4 = 23.2 e V

b) energy of the original photon

h ν₁ - 13.6 = K

h ν₁  = 23.2 + 13.6

       = 36.8 e V

energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV

A beam of protons is directed in a straight line along the positive zz ‑direction through a region of space in which there are c
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The magnitude is B = \frac{450}{7.9* 10^5}

The direction is  the positive x axis

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  electric field is  E = 450 V/m in the negative y ‑direction

   The speed of the proton is  v= 7.9* 10^5\  m/s in the positive z direction

Generally the overall force acting on  the proton is mathematical represented as

              F_E =  q(\vec E + \vec v  * \vec B)

Now for the beam of protons to continue un-deflected along its straight-line trajectory then  F_E =0

So

          0  =  q( E (-y) + v(z)  * \vec B)

=>      E\^y = v \^ z  * \vec B

Generally from unit vector cross product vector multiplication

         \^ z  \ *  \  \^ x  =  \^  y

So the direction of  B (magnetic field must be in the positive x -axis )

So

       E\^y = v \^ z  *  B\^ x

=>     E\^y = vB ( \^ z  *  \^ x)

=>     E\^y = vB ( \^y)        

=>      E = vB  

=>      B = \frac{450}{7.9* 10^5}

=>      B =  0.0005696 \ T

AysviL [449]

Answer:

B. The elasticity of demand is -0.126

Explanation:

% Change in Quality demand = -2.65% (negative because of drop)

% Change in price = 21%

Elasticity of demand is given by

\text{Elasticity of demand}=\dfrac{\text{\% Change in Quality demand}}{\text{\% Change in price}}\\\Rightarrow \text{Elasticity of demand}=\dfrac{-2.65}{21}\\\Rightarrow \text{Elasticity of demand}=-0.12619

The Elasticity of demand is -0.12619

If 5J of work are done on a spring, compressing it by 12cm, what is the spring constant?
mash [69]

Answer:

k=694.44

Explanation:

PE=1/2kx^2

5=1/2k*.12^2

5=1/2k(.0144)

divide both sides by .0144
