Answer:

1.34 mm

Explanation:

A double slit experiment is conducted with a light which has a wavelength of 620 nm

The fringes are separated 2.3 mm apart

The light is changed to a wavelength length of 360 nm

Let x represent the fringe spacing as a result of the change in wavelength

Therefore,the fringe spacing can be calculated as follows

2.3mm/x= 620nm/360nm

Multiply both sides

x × 620= 2.3×360

620x= 828

x= 828/620

x= 1.34 mm

The energy E of the electron in a hydrogen atom can be calculated from the Bohr formula: =E−Ryn2 In this equation Ry stands for
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

  λ = 162 10⁻⁷ m

Explanation:

Bohr's model for the hydrogen atom gives energy by the equation

         E_{n} = - k²e² / 2m (1 / n²)

Where k is the Coulomb constant, e and m the charge and mass of the electron respectively and n is an integer

The Planck equation

           E = h f

The speed of light is

          c = λ f

          E = h c /λ

For a transition between two states we have

          E_{n} - E_{m} = - k²e² / 2m (1 / n_{f}² -1 / n_{i}²)

           h c / λ = -k² e² / 2m (1 / n_{f}² - 1/ n_{i}²)

           1 / λ = (- k² e² / 2m h c) (1 / n_{f}² - 1/n_{i}²)

The Rydberg constant with a value of 1,097 107 m-1 is the result of the constant in parentheses

Let's calculate the emission of the transition

            1 /λ = 1.097 10⁷ (1/10² - 1/8²)

            1 / λ = 1.097 10⁷ (0.01 - 0.015625)

            1 /λ = 0.006170625 10⁷

            λ = 162 10⁻⁷ m

Arianna is experimenting with different materials to see which one will
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Concrete

Explanation:

The speed at which sound propagates is medium dependent. As one of the forms of mechanical waves, sound requires a material medium for propagation from place to place.

  • Sound travels with the least speed in air because air particles are far apart and they are randomized.
  • Sound travels with the greatest speed in solids. Concrete is the only solid material given in the choice.

The speed of sound increases from air to liquid and to solid.

How strong is naruto i need a in depth answer going off his AP and DC i prefer powerscalers since they do this but anyone can an
marin [14]

Answer:

Naruto is kinda strong

Explanation:

If were just talking about just him I think that he is strong for letting go of his past and moving along with his life. Bu t he also isn't strong if you think about it if Naruto didn't have the nine tails he wouldn't be special so he also is not strong there for his only power really comes from the nine tails.

An oxygen atom picks up two additional, free-floating electrons. Is the charge of the newly formed oxygen ion positive, negative
MariettaO [177]

Answer: Negative

Explanation:

An oxygen atom has the chemical symbol O. Its atomic number is 8, with an electronic configuration of 1s2, 2s2 2p4.

Now, due to the incompletely filled p-orbital, oxygen picks up two additional, free-floating electrons (2e-) to complete its outermost shell. And since each electrons received carries a negative charge, oxygen atom becomes a negatively charged divalent ion, O2-

See the equation below

O + 2e- ---> O2-
