Answer:

This represents radiation in ultra-violet region .

Explanation:

Energy of the orbit where n = 3 is given as follows

E_3 =- \frac{13.6 }{3^2}

E_3 =- \frac{13.6 }{9} = -1.511 eV

Energy of the orbit where n = 1 is given as follows

E_1 =- \frac{13.6 }{1^2}

E_1 =- \frac{13.6 }{1} = 13.6 eV

Difference of [tex]E_3 and [tex]E_1 = - 1.511+ 13.6

= 12.089 eV.

The wavelength of light having this energy in nm is given by the expression as follows

Wavelength in nm = 1244 / energy in eV

= 1244 / 12.089

= 102.90 nm

This represents radiation in ultra-violet region .

A simple pendulum consists of a ball connected to one end of a thin brass wire. The period of the pendulum "is 2.51 s". The temp
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

0.0034 sec

Explanation:

L = initial length

T = initial time period = 2.51 s

Time period is given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

2.51 = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8}}

L = 1.56392 m

L' = new length

ΔT = Rise in temperature = 142 °C

α = coefficient of linear expansion = 19 x 10⁻⁶ °C

New length due to rise of temperature is given as

L' = L + LαΔT

L' = 1.56392 + (1.56392) (19 x 10⁻⁶) (142)

L' = 1.56814 m

T' = New time period

New time period is given as

T' = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L'}{g}}

T' = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{1.56814}{9.8}}

T' = 2.5134 sec

Change in time period is given as

ΔT = T' - T

ΔT = 2.5134 - 2.51

ΔT = 0.0034 sec
