Answer:

4. Electrons move from higher energy states to lower energy states.

Explanation:

When electrons fall from a higher (excited) energy state to a lower energy state, it loses/gives out energy.

This energy is given out by the emission of photons (quanta of light) by the electron.

A water skier is pulled by a boat traveling with a constant velocity. Which one of the following statements is false concerning
ycow [4]

Answer:

C. There is a net horizontal force on the skier in the direction the ​boat’s velocity.

Explanation:

This is because, according to Newton's First law of motion, when an object which in this case is the skier tends to be in equilibrium because it travels at a constant velocity, there is no net acceleration of the skier, and this causes the net force on the skier to be equal to zero.

Therefore in this question, option C which states that "There is a net horizontal force on the skier in the direction the ​boat’s velocity" is a false statement.

A laser beam is incident at an angle of 30.2° to the vertical onto a solution of corn syrup in water. (a) If the beam is refract
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

a) n2 = 1.55

b) 408.25 nm

c) 4.74*10^14 Hz

d) 1.93*10^8 m/s

Explanation:

a) To find the index of refraction of the syrup solution you use the Snell's law:

n_1sin\theta_1=n_2sin\theta_2   (1)

n1: index of refraction of air

n2: index of syrup solution

angle1: incidence angle

angle2: refraction angle

You replace the values of the parameter in (1) and calculate n2:

n_2=\frac{n_1sin\theta_1}{sin\theta_2}=\frac{(1)(sin30.2\°)}{sin18.82\°}=1.55

b) To fond the wavelength in the solution you use:

\frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}\\\\\lambda_2=\lambda_1\frac{n_1}{n_2}=(632.8nm)\frac{1.00}{1.55}=408.25nm

c) The frequency of the wave in the solution is:

v=\lambda_2 f_2\\\\f_2=\frac{v}{\lambda_2}=\frac{c}{n_2\lambda_2}=\frac{3*10^8m/s}{(1.55)(408.25*10^{-9}m)}=4.74*10^{14}\ Hz

d) The speed in the solution is given by:

v=\frac{c}{n_2}=\frac{3*10^8m/s}{1.55}=1.93*10^8m/s
