Answer:True

Explanation:

Light year is the unit of distance and not a unit of time.

Light year is used to measure astronomical distances.

It is defined as the distance which light travels in one year.

The distance which light travels in one year is around 9.46 trillion kilometers

Thus 1 light year = 9.46\times 10^9 km.

Thus the given statement that A light-year is the distance that light travels in one year is true.

Regarding the Lyman series of hydrogen, calculate the frequency of the n = 5 line.
zvonat [6]
The Lyman series can be expressed in the formula <span><span>1/λ</span>=<span>RH</span><span>(1−<span>1/<span>n2</span></span>) where </span><span><span>RH</span>=1.0968×<span>107</span><span>m<span>−1</span></span>=<span><span>13.6eV</span><span>hc

</span></span></span></span>Where n is a natural number greater than or equal to 2 (i.e. n = 2,3,4,...). Therefore, the lines seen in the image above are the wavelengths corresponding to n=2 on the right, to n=∞on the left (there are infinitely many spectral lines, but they become very dense as they approach to n=∞<span> (Lyman limit), so only some of the first lines and the last one appear).
 The wavelengths (nm) in the Lyman series are all ultraviolet
:2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
 Wavelength (nm) 121.6 102.6 97.3 95 93.8 93.1 92.6 92.3 92.1 91.9 91.18 (Lyman limit)
In your case for the n=5 line you have to replace "n" in the above formula for 5 and you should get a value of 95 x 10^-9 m for the wavelength. then you have to use the other equation that convert wavelength to frequency. </span>

When bismuth-212 undergoes alpha decay, it becomes which of the following?
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer: -

When bismuth-212 undergoes alpha decay, it becomes ²⁰⁸Tl

Explanation: -

Mass number of ²¹²Bi = 212

Atomic number of ²¹²Bi = 83

When alpha decay occurs the mass number decreases by 4 and the atomic number decreases by 2.

Mass number of daughter = 212 - 4 = 208

Atomic number of daughter = 83 - 2 = 81

It is the atomic number of Thallium Tl.

Thus the daughter nucleide is ²⁰⁸Tl.

Why do alligators need a warm climate?
Reptile [31]
<span>The answer is B.They cannot produce enough heat to keep their bodies warm.

In order to survive, the alligators rely on warm weather, and they are most active when the environment is 82-92 degrees Fahrenheit. They can survive below or above this temperature range but they may spend that time struggling to stay warm or stay cool.
