Answer:

B. A single, specific amount of energy is associated with each movement of an electron between energy levels.

Explanation:

As we know by the Bohr's theory that total energy of an electron in a given energy state is given by

E_n = -13.6 \frac{z^2}{n^2}

now here if we will find the change in energy of two states then it is given by

\Delta E = E_2 - E_1

\Delta E = 13.6 z^2(\frac{1}{n_1^2} - \frac{1}{n_2^2})

now when this specific amount of energy is absorbed by the electron then only it will change the state of energy.

so here correct answer will be

B. A single, specific amount of energy is associated with each movement of an electron between energy levels.

The correct answer is B.

Let us think of the classical theory first. In the classical theory, light is a wave that gives energy. This energy gradually helps the electron jump to a higher energy level.
In quantum theory, this is wrong; an electron cannot absorb a small amout of energy because there is not close enough state to jump to with that energy; only very specific amounts of energy lead to a change in orbital levels/ absorbance of energy. Also, each pair of energy levels has a specific energy difference that is needed from an electron so that it can move.
Hence, B is correct; all other sentences describe classical models of light-electron interactions

Options a to c can be the reasons for scientific models.

But to primarily answer scientific questions,that would require an empirical and experimental approach and not use of models.

Though after getting the answers, models can be built to further explain the answers.

A normal human heart, beating about once per second, creates a maximum 4.00 mV potential across 0.400 m of a person's chest, pro
kvasek [131]

Answer:

The maximum electric field strength = 0.01 V/m

Explanation:

Given

ΔV(max) = 4.00 mV = 0.004 V

d = 0.400 m

f = 1.00 Hz

Maximum electric field = (maximum potential)/(length)

Maximum electric field = E(max)

Maximum potential = 4.00 mV = 0.004 V

Length = 0.400 m

E(max) = (0.004/0.4) = 0.01 V/m

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer:

I think it is the answer A

Explanation:

Alcohol won't stimulate the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system because the fact that the brain and the nervous system are affected can lead to many consequences: disorders of vision, hearing, motor coordination ...

Alcohol will therefore have a damaging effect, it will therefore sedate the nervous system.

A transverse wave is traveling through a canal. If the distance between two successive crests is 3.17 m and four crests of the w
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

a. 0.18Hz

b. 0.56m/s

Explanation:

From the question we can deduct the following parameters

The wavelength, λ is define as the distance between two successful crest or trough and from the question we conclude that wavelength is 3.17m.

Also the period of the wave T can be computed as

T=22.6/4

T=5.65secs.

a. To compute the frequency, recall that frequency, F=1/period.

Hence,

F=1/5.65

F=0.18Hz

b. Next we compute the wave speed.

Wave speed=frequency *wavelength

Wave speed =0.18*3.17

Wave speed =0.56m/s
