The alpha line in the Balmer series is the transition from n=3 to n=2 and with the wavelength of λ=656 nm = 6.56*10^-7 m. To get the frequency we need the formula: v=λ*f where v is the speed of light, λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency, or c=λ*f. c=3*10^8 m/s. To get the frequency: f=c/λ. Now we input the numbers: f=(3*10^8)/(6.56*10^-7)=4.57*10^14 Hz. So the frequency of the light from alpha line is f= 4.57*10^14 Hz.

On a horizontal surface is located
Ierofanga [76]

By Newton's second law, the net vertical force acting on the object is 0, so that

<em>n</em> - <em>w</em> = 0

where <em>n</em> = magnitude of the normal force of the surface pushing up on the object, and <em>w</em> = weight of the object. Hence <em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = <em>mg</em> = 196 N, where <em>m</em> = 20 kg and <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s².

The force of static friction exerts up to 80 N on the object, since that's the minimum required force needed to get it moving, which means the coefficient of <u>static</u> friction <em>µ</em> is such that

80 N = <em>µ</em> (196 N)   →   <em>µ</em> = (80 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.408

Moving at constant speed, there is a kinetic friction force of 40 N opposing the object's motion, so that the coefficient of <u>kinetic</u> friction <em>ν</em> is

40 N = <em>ν</em> (196 N)   →   <em>ν</em> = (40 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.204

And so the closest answer is C.

(Note: <em>µ</em> and <em>ν</em> are the Greek letters mu and nu)

What is Latent heat and also give types.<br>​
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Latent heat is energy released or absorbed, by a body or a thermodynamic system, during a constant-temperature process. Two common forms of latent heat are latent heat of fusion (melting) and latent heat of vaporization (boiling).
