The series in the He spectrum that corresponds to the set of transitions where the electron falls from a higher level to the nf

= 4 state is called the Pickering series, an important series in solar astronomy. Calculate the Pickering series wavelength associated with the excited state ni = 6.

In this problem, it is necessary to introduce the atomic number Z into the equation. 
E=(2.18×10^-18 J)(Z^2 )|1/(ni^2 )-1/(nf^2 )| E=(2.18×10^-18 J)(2^2 )|1/(6 ^2 )-1/(4 ^2 )|=3.02798×10^-19 J 
Plug the E value calculated into the equation: (wavelength is always positive) 
E=hc/λ 3.02798×10^-19 J=hc/λ λ=6.56×10^-7 m 
656 nm is in the visible spectrum

In a car with a mass of 4,000 KG is accelerating at a rate of 2m/s2 and hits a tree what force does it have
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the force acting on the body and inversely proportional to its mass. The formula for this law is

F=ma

=4000kg * 2m/s 2 =8000N

I am struggling on this physics question. Brainly is my last hope. Could somebody please provide an answer to this question, wit
Aleks [24]

1) 29.4 N

The force of gravity between two objects is given by:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M and m are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the centres of mass of the two objects

In this problem, we have

M=5.97\cdot 10^{24} kg (mass of the Earth)

m=3.0 kg (mass of the box)

r=R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m (Earth's radius, which is also the distance between the centres of mass of the two objects, since the box is located at Earth's surface)

Substituting into the equation, we find F:

F=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.97\cdot 10^{24})(3.0)}{(6.37\cdot 10^6)^2}=29.4 N

2) g=9.8 m/s^2

Let's now calculate the ratio F/m. We have:

F = 29.4 N

m = 3.0 kg

Subsituting, we find

\frac{F}{m}=\frac{29.4}{3.0}=9.8 N/kg = 9.8 m/s^2

This is called acceleration of gravity, and it is the acceleration at which every object falls near the Earth's surface. It is indicated with the symbol g.

We can prove that this is the acceleration of the object: in fact, according to Newton's second law,

F=ma

where a is the acceleration of the object. Re-arranging,

a=\frac{F}{m}

which is exactly equal to the quantity we have calculated above.

A 2.0 kg bucket is attached to a horizontal ideal spring and rests on frictionless ice. You have a 1.0 kg mass
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

x = A cos (w \sqrt{2y_{o}/g})

a) maximun  Ф= \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }

b) minimun     Ф = \frac{\pi }{2} - \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use kinematics to find the time it takes for the mass to reach the floor

         y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

   

as the mass is released from rest, its initial velocity is zero (vo = 0) and its height upon reaching the ground is zero (y = 0)

      0 = y₀ - ½ g t²

      t = \sqrt{2y_{o}/g}

The bucket-spring system has a simple harmonic motion, which is described by

     x = A cos wt

in this expression we assumed that the phase constant (Ф) is zero

let's replace the time

     x = A cos (w \sqrt{2y_{o}/g})

this is the distance where the system must be for the mass to fall into it.

a) The new system has a total mass of m ’= 3.0 kg, so its angular velocity changes

          w = \sqrt{k/m}

In the initial state

         w = \sqrt{k/2}

When the mass changes

         w ’= \sqrt{k/3}

the displacement in each case is

         x = A cos (wt)

for the new case

        x ’= A cos (w’t + Ф)

the phase constant is included to take into account possible changes due to the collision of the mass.

we see that this maximum expressions when the cosine is maximum

        cos (w´t + Ф) = 1

         w’t + Ф = 0

        Ф = -w ’t

        Ф = - \sqrt{k/3} \sqrt{2y_{o}/g}

       \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }

b) the function is minimun if

        cos (w’t + fi) = 0

        w’t + Ф = π / 2

        Ф = π / 2 - w ’t

        Ф = \frac{\pi }{2} - \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }
