Explanation:

Let m_p is the mass of proton. It is moving in a circular path perpendicular to a magnetic field of magnitude B.

The magnetic force is balanced by the centripetal force acting on the proton as :

\dfrac{mv^2}{r}=qvB

r is the radius of path,

r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}

Time period is given by :

T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v}

T=\dfrac{2\pi m_p}{qB}

Frequency of proton is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m_p}

The wavelength of radiation is given by :

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{2\pi m_pc}{qB}

So, the wavelength of radiation produced by a proton is \dfrac{2\pi m_pc}{qB}. Hence, this is the required solution.

When light shines through atomic hydrogen gas, it is seen that the gas absorbs light readily at a wavelength of 91.63 nm. What i
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

D) 21

Explanation:

When gas absorbs light , electron at lower level jumps to higher level .

and the difference of energy of orbital is equal to energy of radiation absorbed.

Here energy absorbed is equivalent to wavelength of 91.63 nm

In terms of its energy in eV , its energy content is eual to

1243.5 / 91.63 = 13.57 eV. This represents the difference the energy of orbit .

Electron is lying in lowest or first level ie n = 1.

Energy of first level

= - 13.6 / 1² = - 13.6 eV.

Energy of n th level = - 13.6 / n². Let in this level electron has been excited

Difference of energy

= 13.6 - 13.6 / n² = 13.57 ( energy of absorbed radiation)

13.6 / n² = 13.6 - 13.57 = .03

n² = 13.6 / .03 = 453

n = 21 ( approx )

Which component of a loudspeaker produces sound waves? a solenoid coil a thin membrane a permanent magnet
zimovet [89]

Answer: A thin membrane.

Explanation:

When a sound signal is allowed to pass through the voice coil suspended between permanent magnet, magnetic field will be induced which will cause vibration in the diaphragm - a thin membrane causing disturbance of air in the surrounding of membranes which eventually produce sound waves.

Therefore, we can conclude that a thin membrane of the loud speaker produces sound waves

A car mass of 1.2 x 10 kilograms starts from rest and attains a speed of 20 meters/seconds in 5 seconds. What net force acted on
lorasvet [3.4K]

Net force on the car=F=4.8 x 10³ N

Explanation:

mass of car= 1.2 x 10³ Kg

initial velocity= Vi=0

Final velocity= Vf= 20 m/s

time = t= 5 s

Using kinematic equation,

Vf= Vi + at

20= 0 + a (5)

5 a=20

a= 20/5

a= 4 m/s²

Now force is given by F = ma

F= 1.2 x 10³ (4)

F=4.8 x 10³ N
