Answer:

Orbit around the nucleus at specific energy levels

Explanation:

In the quantum model of the atom (Bohr's model), electrons orbit the nucleus at specific orbits corresponding to specific energy level - this means that an electron cannot be found in the space between two orbits.

Since each orbit correspond to a a precise energy level, this means that the spectrum of emission and absorption of an atom is discrete. In fact:

- When an electron jumps from a lower energy level to a higher energy level, it absorbs a photon whose energy is equal to the difference in energy between the two levels - so photons of only specific frequencies are absorbed

- When an electron jumps from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, it emits a photon whose energy is equal to the difference in energy between the two levels - so photons of only specific frequencies are emitted

An interference pattern is produced by light with a wavelength 550 nm from a distant source incident on two identical parallel s

ad-work [718]

Answer:

$\theta = 0.0022 rad$

$I = 0.000304 I_o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength of the light is $\lambda = 550 \ nm = 550 *10^{-9} \ m$

The distance of the slit separation is $d = 0.500 \ mm = 5.0 *10^{-4} \ m$

Generally the condition for two slit interference is

$dsin \theta = m \lambda$

Where m is the order which is given from the question as m = 2

=> $\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{m \lambda}{d} ]$

substituting values

$\theta = 0.0022 rad$

Now on the second question

The distance of separation of the slit is

$d = 0.300 \ mm = 3.0 *10^{-4} \ m$

The intensity at the the angular position in part "a" is mathematically evaluated as

$I = I_o [\frac{sin \beta}{\beta} ]^2$

Where $\beta$ is mathematically evaluated as

$\beta = \frac{\pi * d * sin(\theta )}{\lambda }$

substituting values

$\beta = \frac{3.142 * 3*10^{-4} * sin(0.0022 )}{550 *10^{-9} }$

$\beta = 0.06581$

So the intensity is

$I = I_o [\frac{sin (0.06581)}{0.06581} ]^2$

$I = 0.000304 I_o$

particle of mass 59 g and charge 51 µC is released from rest when it is 32 cm from a second particle of charge −14 µC. Determine

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The initial acceleration of the 59g particle is $1062.7\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Explanation:

Newton's second laws relates acceleration (a), net force(F) and mass (m) in the next way:

$F=ma$ (1)

We already know the mass of the particle so we should find the electric force on it to use on (1), the magnitude of the electric force between two charged objects by Columb's law is:

$F=k\frac{\mid q_{1}q_{2}\mid}{r^{2}}$

with q1 and q2 the charge of the particles, r the distance between them and k the constant $k=9.0\times10^{9}\,\frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}$ . So:

$F=(9.0\times10^{9})\frac{\mid (51\times10^{-6})(-14\times10^{-6})\mid}{0.32^{2}}$

$F=62.7 N$

Using that value on (1) and solving for a

$a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{62.7}{0.059}=1062.7\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

An example of acceleration

TEA [102]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton’s Second Law of Motion says that acceleration (gaining speed) happens when a force acts on a mass (object). Riding your bicycle is a good example of this law of motion at work. Your bicycle is the mass.

An artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 300 m/s at 52.0° above the horizontal. To clear an avalanche, it explode

sasho [114]

The x- and y-coordinates are 9142.57 m and -304.425 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

As the motion of the shell is in a plane (two dimensional space) and the acceleration is that due to gravity which is vertically downward, we resolve initial velocity of the shell $v_{0}$ in horizontal and vertical directions. If the initial velocity of the shell is making angle with the horizontal, the horizontal component of initial velocity will be

$v_{x}=v_{0} \times \cos \theta$

As the acceleration of the shell is vertical having no horizontal component, the shell may be considered to move horizontally with constant velocity of $v_{x}$ and hence the horizontal distance covered (or the x coordinate of the shell with point of projection as origin) is given by

$v_{x}=v_{o} \times \cos \theta=300 \times \cos \left(52^{\circ}\right)=184.69 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

$v_{y}=v_{o} \times \sin \theta==300 \times \sin \left(52^{\circ}\right)=236.4 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

For motion with constant acceleration, we know

$s=s_{0}+v_{0} t+\left(\frac{(1)}{2}\right) a t^{2}$

Along the horizontal, x-axis, we might write this as

$x=x_{0}+v_{x 0} t+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) a_{x} t^{2}$

Measuring distances relative to the firing point means

$x_{0}=0$

we know that,

$a_{x}=0$

or,

$v_{x}=v_{x 0}=\text { constant }$

By applying the values, we get,

$x=0+(184.69 \times 49.5)+\left(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \times 0 \times(49.5)^{2}\right)=9142.57 \mathrm{m}$

The acceleration of gravity is vertically downward and is $g=-9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ , hence the vertical distance covered (or y coordinate of the shell) is given by the second equation of motion
