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.

1. A student pushes horizontally on a book with a force of 2 N, which causes the book to slide at a constant velocity. What is t

Cloud [144]

Answer:

The horizontal forces are equal in size and opposite in direction. They are balanced, so the horizontal resultant force is zero. This means that there is no horizontal acceleration just a horizontal constant speed. If a submarine is not moving horizontally, then there are no horizontal forces.

I hope it helps.

A wrecking ball is hanging at rest from a crane when suddenly the cable breaks. The time it takes for the ball to fall halfway t

Naddik [55]

Answer:

1.697s

Explanation:

We use the second equation of free fall under gravity as follows;

$h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2...............(1)$

Since the ball fell freely, u = 0m/s, therefore equation (1) reduces to

$h=\frac{1}{2}gt^2...............(2)$

Given that h is the total height the ball falls through in time t seconds.

However, according to the stated problem the ball falls halfway in 1.2s, this simply implies that the ball falls through a distance of $\frac{h}{2}$ in 1.2s. Hence we can write the following, given that $g=9.8m/s^2$ ;
