Sholpan [36]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Potential Energy is given by

U(x)=ax^2+\frac{b}{x^2}

And Force is given by

F=-\frac{\mathrm{d} U}{\mathrm{d} x}

Particle will be at equilibrium when Potential Energy is either minimum or maximum

F=-\left ( 2ax-\frac{2b}{x^3}\right )

i.e.ax=\frac{b}{x^3}

x_0=(\frac{b}{a})^{0.25}

So angular Frequency of small oscillation is given by

\omega =\sqrt{\frac{U''(x)}{m}}

for m=1

we get    \omega =\sqrt{\frac{U''(x_0)}{1}}

U''(x_0)=2a+6a= 8a

\omega =\sqrt{8a}

3. How much work is done when you pull a 6 N wagon for 5 meters?
8090 [49]

Answer:

<h2>30 J</h2>

Explanation:

The work done by an object can be found by using the formula

workdone = force × distance

From the question

force = 6 N

distance = 5 m

We have

workdone = 6 × 5 = 30

We have the final answer as

<h3>30 J</h3>

what is the necessary condition within the hydrogen atom for balmer line photons to be absorbed by the hydrogen atom
luda_lava [24]

Explanation :

When an electron jumps from one energy level to another, the energy of atom gets changed.

If a photon gets absorbed, the electron will move to higher energy levels and then fall back to the lower energy levels. Then each time a photon will be absorbed whose energy is given by difference between the initial and final energy levels i.e

In Balmer series, the transition is from higher energy levels to n = 2.

So, the necessary condition for Balmer series is that the electron should be at first excited state or n = 2 level as shown in figure.
