Collisions between atoms are often elastic, but sometimes inelastic collisions occur, and the lost kinetic energy can become int

ernal energy in the atoms, exciting electrons to higher energy orbitals or even ejecting then from the atom entirely, which is called ionization (and the required energy the ionization energy).2 (a) A Cs 133 atom (mass 133 amu) has an ionization energy of 4.0 eV.3 Express this energy in joules. (b) What is the minimum speed that a O16 atom can have if it is to ionize a cesium atom at rest upon impact?

Answer:

a) E = 6.4 1019 J    b)  v = 0.69 10⁴4 m / s

Explication

a) convert E = 4.0 eV

    1 eV = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J

   E = 4.0 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1 eV)

   E = 6.4 10⁻¹⁹ J

b) Suppose we have a frontal shock and all the kinetic energy of oxygen is transferred to Cs

    Ei = K = ½ m v²

    Ef = 6.4 10⁻¹⁹ J

    ½ m v² = 6.4 10⁻¹⁹

The oxygen mass of the periodic table is

     PA = 15,999 u

     1u = 1.660 10⁻²⁷ kg

     Pa = 15,999 1,660 10⁻²⁷ kg

     m= Pa = 26,558 10⁻²⁷ kg

Let's calculate the speed

    v2 = 2 / m 6.4 10⁻¹⁹

    v2 = 2 / 26,558 10⁻²⁷ 6.4 10⁻¹⁹ =

    v = √0.4819 10⁸

    v = 0.69 10⁴4 m / s

The tension of a guitar string is increased by 40%. By what factor odes the fundamental frequency of vibration change? a. 1.13 b
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

<h3> b. 1.18</h3>

Explanation:

The fundamental frequency in string is expressed as;

F1 = 1/2L√T/m .... 1

L is the length of the string

T is the tension

m is the mass per unit length

If the tension is increased by 40%, the new tension will be;

T2 = T + 40%T

T2 = T + 0.4T

T2 = 1.4T

The new fundamental frequency will be;

F2 = 1/2L√1.4T/m ..... 2

Divide 1 by 2;

F2/F = (1/2L√1.4T/m)/1/2L√T/m)+

F2/F = √1.4T/m ÷ √T/m

F2/F = √1.4T/√m ×√m/√T

F2/F = √1.4T/√T

F2/F = 1.18√T/√T

F2/F = 1.18

F2 = 1.18F

Hence the fundamental frequency of vibration changes by a factor of 1.18

A 3.00 kg cart on a frictionless track is pulled by a string so that it accelerates at 2.00 m/s/s. what is the tension in the st
AnnZ [28]
Maybe the picture helps. The blue block represents the cart with a mass of 3 kg. The person(black block) is pulling the cart to the right with a force F so that the acceleration a is 2 m/s². According to Newton's 2nd law: F = m*a.

How is the earth changing??? How would you answer this question at this point???
Vika [28.1K]
Scientists have been observing Earth for a long time. They use NASA satellites and other instruments to collect many types of information about Earth's land, atmosphere, ocean and ice. This information tells us that Earth's climate is getting warmer.


Extra:

Extra greenhouse gases in our atmosphere are the main reason that Earth is getting warmer. Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane, trap the Sun's heat in Earth's atmosphere.

It's normal for there to be some greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. They help keep Earth warm enough to live on. But too many greenhouse gases can cause too much warming.

The burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil increase the amount of CO2 in our air. This happens because the burning process combines carbon with oxygen in the air to make CO2.

It's important that we monitor CO2 levels, because too much CO2 can cause too much warming on Earth. Several NASA missions have instruments that study CO2 in the atmosphere.
