(a) 3.77\cdot 10^5 MeV, 1.51\cdot 10^6 MeV, 3.39\cdot 10^3 GeV

The energy levels of an electron in a box are given by

E_n = \frac{n^2 h^2}{8mL^2}

where

n is the energy level

h=6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js is the Planck constant

m=9.11\cdot 10^{-31}kg is the mass of the electron

L=1.0\cdot 10^{-15} m is the size of the box

Substituting n=1, we find the energy of the ground state:

E_1 = \frac{1^2 (6.63\cdot 10^{-34}^2}{8(9.11\cdot 10^{-31}(1.0\cdot 10^{-15})^2}=6.03\cdot 10^{-8}J

Converting into MeV,

E_1 = \frac{6.03\cdot 10^{-8} J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}\cdot 10^{-6} MeV/eV =3.77\cdot 10^5 MeV

Substituting n=2, we find the energy of the first excited state:

E_2 = \frac{2^2 (6.63\cdot 10^{-34}^2}{8(9.11\cdot 10^{-31}(1.0\cdot 10^{-15})^2}=2.41\cdot 10^{-7}J

Converting into MeV,

E_2 = \frac{2.41\cdot 10^{-7} J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}\cdot 10^{-6} MeV/eV =1.51\cdot 10^6 MeV

Substituting n=3, we find the energy of the second excited state:

E_3 = \frac{3^2 (6.63\cdot 10^{-34}^2}{8(9.11\cdot 10^{-31}(1.0\cdot 10^{-15})^2}=5.43\cdot 10^{-7}J

Converting into GeV,

E_3 = \frac{5.43\cdot 10^{-7} J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}\cdot 10^{-9} GeV/eV =3.39\cdot 10^3 GeV

(b) 1.10 \cdot 10^{-18} m

The energy of the emitted radiation is equal to the energy difference between the two levels, so:

E=E_2 - E_1 = 2.41\cdot 10^{-7}J - 6.03\cdot 10^{-8} J=1.81\cdot 10^{-7} J

And the energy of the electromagnetic radiation is

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where c is the speed of light; so, re-arranging the formula, we find the wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{1.81\cdot 10^{-7}J}=1.10 \cdot 10^{-18} m

(c) 6.59 \cdot 10^{-19} m

The energy of the emitted radiation is equal to the energy difference between the two levels, so:

E=E_3 - E_2 = 5.43\cdot 10^{-7} J - 2.41\cdot 10^{-7}J =3.02\cdot 10^{-7} J

Using the same formula as before, we find the corresponding wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{3.02\cdot 10^{-7}J}=6.59 \cdot 10^{-19} m

(d) 4.12 \cdot 10^{-19} m

The energy of the emitted radiation is equal to the energy difference between the two levels, so:

E=E_3 - E_1 = 5.43\cdot 10^{-7} J - 6.03\cdot 10^{-8}J =4.83\cdot 10^{-7} J

Using the same formula as before, we find:

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{4.83\cdot 10^{-7}J}=4.12 \cdot 10^{-19} m

A jogger runs at a constant rate of 10.0 m every 2.0 seconds. The jogger starts at the origin and runs in the positive direction
Elis [28]

Answer:

(a) 25 m

(b) 75 m

Explanation:

Given that the jogger runs at a constant rate of 10.0 m every 2.0 seconds.

So, the speed of the jogger,

v=\frac{10}{2}=5m/s\;\cdots(i)

Let d be the distance covered by him in time, t s.

As distance=(speed) x (time)

So, d=vt

From equation (i)

\Rightarrow d=5t\;\cdots(ii)

As the jogger starts from origin, so, the distance, d, also represents the position of the jogger at the time t s.

The position-time graph has been shown.

(a) From equation (ii), for t=5.0 s

d=5\times 5=25 m

So, the jogger is at a distance of 25 m from the origin.

(b) Similarly, for t=15.0 s

d=5\times 15=75 m

So, the jogger is at a distance of 75 m from the origin.

a hockey puck with a mass of 0.11 kg is at rest on the horizontal frictionless surface of the rink. a player applies a horizonta
stira [4]

The solution to this ques is available in the image.

Given,

Force= 1N

Mass= 0.11kg

Time= 5sec

Force= mass X accelaration

Accelaration= velocity/ time

Speed=distance/ time

Hence, the speed is 45 m/s and the distance is 225 m.

A rod 7.0 m long is pivoted at a point 2.0 m from the left end. A downward force of 50 N acts at the left end, and a downward fo
kicyunya [14]

If the rod is in rotational equilibrium, then the net torques acting on it is zero:

∑ τ = 0

Let's give the system a counterclockwise orientation, so that forces that would cause the rod to rotate counterclockwise act in the positive direction. Compute the magnitudes of each torque:

• at the left end,

τ = + (50 N) (2.0 m) = 100 N•m

• at the right end,

τ = - (200 N) (5.0 m) = - 1000 N•m

• at a point a distance d to the right of the pivot point,

τ = + (300 N) d

Then

∑ τ = 100 N•m - 1000 N•m + (300 N) d = 0

⇒   (300 N) d = 1100 N•m

⇒   d ≈ 3.7 m
