Answer:

The n = 8 to n = 4 transition in the Bohr hydrogen atom occurs in the Infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Explanation:

The electron present in a hydrogen atom revolves around the nucleus in their orbits.The electron's energy in an orbit is proportional to its distance from the nucleus. Nearer the electron is from nucleus, the less energy it has. Only a limited number of orbits is allowed with certain energies.

When an electron jumps from an orbit of higher energy, it absorbs light and releases it when an electron falls into an orbit of lower energy. This transition from higher energy level to lower energy level takes place in different region .

When electron in the hydrogen atom undergoes transition between n=4 energy level and n=8 energy levels it produces spectral line within the infrared region with wavelength of 4.05 to 1.46 microns. This is called as brackett series.

A 120 g, 8.0-cm-diameter gyroscope is spun at 1000 rpm and allowed to precess. What is the precession period?

dolphi86 [110]

To solve this problem we will derive the expression of the precession period from the moment of inertia of the given object. We will convert the units that are not in SI, and finally we will find the precession period with the variables found. Let's start defining the moment of inertia.

$I = MR^2$
