Interactive LearningWare 30.1 reviews the concepts that play roles in this problem. A hydrogen atom emits a photon that has mome

ntum 0.5168 × 10-27 kg·m/s. This photon is emitted because the electron in the atom falls from a higher energy level into the n = 3 level. What is the quantum number of the level from which the electron falls? Use values of h = 6.626 × 10-34 J·s, c = 2.998 × 108 m/s, and e = 1.602 × 10-19 C.

Answer:

5

Explanation:

λ (wavelength) = h (Plancks) / p (momentum)

also,

λ = h*c / ΔE so

h/p = (h * c) / ΔE

p * c (speed of light) = ΔE (in joules)

[ 0.5168 x 10^-27 kg m / sec ] * 2.998 x 10^8 m / sec = 1.55 J

Converting it to electron volts:

1.55 J / ( 1.602 x 10^-19 J / eV) = 0.97 eV for the photon energy

Using the Balmer Series:

ΔE = 13.6 eV [ 1 / Nf^2 - 1 / Ni^2]

0.97 / 13.6 = [ 1 / 3^2 - 1 / Ni^2 ]

0.07132 = [(1/9) - (1/Ni^2)]

0.07132 = [0.111 - (1/Ni^2)]

0.07132 - 0.111111 = - 1/Ni^2

-0.03979 = -1 / Ni^2

Ni^2 = 1/0.03979

Ni^2 = 25

Ni = 5

The use of Planck's constant is not necessary here.

N = 5 was the original energy level.

A ball is suspended by a lightweight string, as shown in the figure above.
Irina18 [472]

<u>Answer </u>

A. 1 and 2

<u>Explanation </u>

At point 1 we have the highest potential energy and the kinetic energy is zero.

At 2 the potential energy is minimum and the kinetic energy is maximum.

The law of conservation of energy says that energy cannot be created nor destroyed. So, the change in P.E = Change in K.E.

P.E = height × gravity × mass. The height referred here is the perpendicular height. Gravity and mass are constant in this case.

From the diagram it can be seen clearly that the vertical height from 2 to 1 is much greater than from 4 to 3.

This shows that the change in P.E is greater between 1 and 2 and so is kinetic energy.

Why is cloning done before an investigation begins??
svlad2 [7]

Answer:Purpose of Cloning

A forensic image of a hard drive captures everything on the hard drive, from the physical beginning to the physical end. ... Hard drives are susceptible to failure. Having two clones gives an investigator one to examine and one to fall back on.Therapeutic cloning involves creating a cloned embryo for the sole purpose of producing embryonic stem cells with the same DNA as the donor cell. These stem cells can be used in experiments aimed at understanding disease and developing new treatments for disease.

hope this helps have a nice night lo❤️❤️❤️l

Decreases, stays the same, increases. The volume decreases because as air is cooled, the individual molecules collectively possess less kinetic energy and the distances between them decrease, thus leading to a decrease in the volume they occupy at a certain pressure (please note that my answer only holds under constant pressure; air, as a gas, doesn't actually have a definite volume). The mass stays the same because physical processes do not create or destroy matter. The law of conservation of mass is obeyed. You're only cooling the air, not adding more air molecules. The density decreases because as the volume decreases and mass stays the same, you have the same mass occupying a smaller volume. Density is mass divided by volume, so as mass is held constant and volume decreases, density increases.
