Standing waves can ruin the acoustics of a concert hall if there is excessive reflection of the sound waves that the performers

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The answer to the questions is;

In terms of standing waves, the listener moves from a location with high amplitude to one with lower amplitude or vibration (anti-node to node)

The distance 4.1 cm is equivalent to λ/4

Explanation:

For standing waves we have is a stationary wave comprising of two opposite direction moving waves that have equal amplitude and frequency, resulting in the superimposition of the waves. As such certain points are fixed along the wave path that is the peaks amplitude of the wave oscillation is constant at a particular point. A node occurring at a point and an anti-node occurring at another fixed point

When the listener moves 4.1 cm he or she has left the anti-node to the node hence the faintness of the sound

The distance from the node to the anti-node is 1/4 wavelength, or 1/4×λ

Therefore 4.1 cm is λ/4

A student standing on a knoll throws a snowball horizontally 4.5 meters above the level ground toward a smokestack 15 meters awa

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

2.4 m

Explanation:

Consider the motion along the vertical direction

$y_{o}$ = initial position of ball above the ground = 4.5 m

$t$ = time taken by the ball to hit the smokestack = 0.65 s

$v_{oy}$ = initial velocity of the ball along vertical direction

$a_{y}$ = acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²

$y$ = position of ball at the time of hitting the smokestack

Using the kinematics equation

$y = y_{o} + v_{oy} t + (0.5) a_{y} t^{2}$

inserting the above values

$y = 4.5 + (0) (0.65) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (0.65)^{2} \\y = 2.4 m$

The diffraction limit is a limit on: The diffraction limit is a limit on: A telescope's size. A telescope's angular resolution.

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

A telescope's angular resolution.

Explanation:

Diffraction limit is a minimum angular separation of two sources and it can be distinguished by the telescope. This angle is known as the diffraction limit. It is proportional to the wavelength of light and it has an inverse relation with the diameter of the telescope. Mathematically it is defined as

θ = 1.22λ/d

where θ is the angle, λ wavelength and d is the diameter of the objective mirror (lenz).

Consider the four quantum numbers of an electron in an atom, n, l, ml, and ms. The energy of an electron in an isolated atom dep

Effectus [21]

Answer:

The energy of an electron in an isolated atom depends on b. n only.

Explanation:

The quantum number n, known as the principal quantum number represents the relative overall energy of each orbital.

The sets of orbitals with the same n value are often referred to as an electron shell, in an isolated atom all electrons in a subshell have exactly the same level of energy.

The principal quantum number comes from the solution of the Schrödinger wave equation, which describes energy in eigenstates $E_n$ , and for the case of an hydrogen atom we have:

$E_n=-\cfrac{13.6}{n^2}\, eV$

Thus for each value of n we can describe the orbital and the energy corresponding to each electron on such orbital.

Assume that in the Stern-Gerlach experiment for neutral silver atoms, the magnetic field has a magnitude of B = 0.21 T. (a) What

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Explanation

Assume that in the Stern-Gerlach experiment for neutral silver atoms, the magnetic field has a magnitude of B = 0.21 T

A. To calculate the energy difference in the magnetic moment orientation

∆E = 2μB

For example, any electron's magnetic moment is measured to be 9.284764×10^−24 J/T

Then

μ = 9.284764 × 10^-24 J/T

∆E = 2μB

∆E = 2 × 9.284764 × 10^-24 × 0.21

∆E = 3.8996 × 10^-24 J

Then, to eV

1eV = 1.602 × 10^-19J

∆E = 3.8996 × 10^-24 J × 1eV / 1.602 × 10^-19J

∆E = 2.43 × 10^-5 eV

B. Frequency?

To determine the frequency of radiation hitch would induce the transition between the two states is,

∆E = hf

Where h is plank constant

h = 6.626 × 10-34 Js

Then, f = ∆E / h

f = 3.8996 × 10^-24 / 6.626 × 10^-34

f = 5.885 × 10^9 Hz

f ≈ 5.89 GHz

C. The wavelength of the radiation

From wave equation

v = fλ

In electromagnetic, we deal with speed of light, v = c

And the speed of light in vacuum is

c = 3 × 10^8 m/s

c = fλ

λ = c / f

λ = 3 × 10^8 / 5.885 × 10^9

λ = 0.051 m

λ = 5.1 cm

λ = 51 mm

D. It belongs to the microwave

From table

Micro waves ranges from

•Wavelength 10 to 0.01cm

Then we got λ = 5.1 cm, which is in the range.

•Frequency 3GHz to 3 Thz

Then, we got f ≈ 5.89 GHz, which is in the range

•Energy 10^-5 to 0.01 eV

We got ∆E = 2.43 × 10^-5 eV, which is in the range of the microwave

The value above is in microwave range
