The line-emission spectrum of an atom is caused by the energies released when electrons

Physics
1 answer:
Paul [167]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

makes a transition from a high to a lower energy state

Explanation:

The emission spectrum is the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation emitted due to the transition from a state of high energy to a state of lower energy made by an electron in the atoms of the chemical element or compound. The emitted photons have an energy equal to the difference in energy between the two states.

In a thunderstorm, electric charge builds up on the water droplets or ice crystals in a cloud. Thus, the charge can be considere
jolli1 [7]

1) 333.6 C

In order to have breakdown, the electric field at the surface of the cloud must be equal to the breakdown electric field:

E=3.00\cdot 10^6 N/C

The electric field strength at the surface of a charged sphere is given by

E=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{Q}{R^2}

where

\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12} C^2/(N^2 m^2) is the vacuum permittivity

Q is the charge on the sphere

R is the radius of the sphere

Here we have a cloud of radius

R = 1.00 km = 1000 m

So we can re-arrange the previous equation in order to find the charge on the cloud:

Q=4\pi \epsilon_0 ER^2=4\pi (8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(3.00\cdot 10^6)(1000)^2=333.6 C

2) 2.08\cdot 10^{21} excess electrons

The total charge of the cloud must be (in magnitude)

Q = 333.3 C

We know that one electron carries a charge of

e = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C

The total charge is just given by the charge of each electron multiplied by the number of excess electrons in the cloud:

Q=Ne

where

N is the number of excess electrons

Solving for N, we find:

N=\frac{Q}{e}=\frac{333.3 C}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C}=2.08\cdot 10^{21}

An early submersible craft for deep-sea exploration was raised and lowered by a cable from a ship. When the craft was stationary
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

The tension in the cable when the craft was being lowered to the seafloor is 4700 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

When the craft was stationary, the tension in the cable was 6500 N.

When the craft was lowered or raised at a steady rate, the motion through the water added an 1800 N.

The drag force of 1800 N will act in the upward direction. As it was lowered or raised at a steady rate, so its acceleration is 0. As a result, net force is 0. So,

T + F = W

Here, T is tension

F = 1800 N

W = 6500 N

Tension becomes :

T=W-F\\\\T=6500-1800\\\\T=4700\ N

So, the tension in the cable when the craft was being lowered to the seafloor is 4700 N.

Which statement accurately describes the relationship between air pressure, air density, or altitude?​
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The answer is: dense air exerts more pressure than less dense air.

Pressure is due to the weight of the above column of the substance which is a force resulting from its weight that is the product of its mass and gravitational pull. The denser the air and the grater the column, the larger its mass and hence the more the pressure it exerts.

A cylindrical bucket, open at the top, is 28.0 cm high and 11.0 cm in diameter. A circular hole with a cross-sectional area 1.55
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

so height is 0.1283 m

Explanation:

given data

height = 28 cm

diameter = 11 cm

cross-sectional area = 1.55 cm2

water flow rate  =  2.46×10^−4 m3/s

to find out

How high will the water in the bucket rise

solution

we know that here

potential energy = kinetic energy

mgh = 1/2 mv²

multiply both sides by the 2 and we get

2mgh=mv²

solve it we get

√(2gh) = v    ....................1

h = v²/2g   ...............2

and

flow rate = A V

2.46×10^−4 = V 1.55×10^−4

V = 1.5870 m/s

so from 2

h = v²/2g

h = 1.5870²/ 2(9.81)

h = 0.1283 m

so height is 0.1283 m

Under very dim levels of illumination foveas react to increase the sensitivity of the optic nerve. rods are more light-sensitive
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

rods are more light sensitive than cones.

Explanation:

There are two types of photo receptors in retina of our eyes. 1 Rods and 2 Cones. Rods are about 120 million and they are more sensitive then the cones. But the rods are not sensitive to color. Cones help us in seeing the color and there are about 6 to 7 million cones that provide color sensitivity to our eyes. That is why in the dark or where their are dim levels of illumination rods provide us scotopic vision. Because rods are more light sensitive then the cones.
