Discrete Charge Distribution- means several charges, to determine the effect of all charges you add up their individual effects

Continuous Charge Distribution - charged smeared out long a line , or over a surface or thru a volume of space

Calculate the energy, wavelength, and frequency of the emitted photon when an electron moves from an energy level of -3.40 eV to
jasenka [17]

Answer:

(a) The energy of the photon is 1.632 x 10^{-8} J.

(b) The wavelength of the photon is 1.2 x 10^{-17} m.

(c) The frequency of the photon is 2.47 x 10^{25} Hz.

Explanation:

Let;

E_{1} = -13.60 ev

E_{2} = -3.40 ev

(a) Energy of the emitted photon can be determined as;

E_{2} - E_{1} = -3.40 - (-13.60)

           = -3.40 + 13.60

           = 10.20 eV

           = 10.20(1.6 x 10^{-9})

E_{2} - E_{1} = 1.632 x 10^{-8} Joules

The energy of the emitted photon is 10.20 eV (or 1.632 x 10^{-8} Joules).

(b) The wavelength, λ, can be determined as;

E = (hc)/ λ

where: E is the energy of the photon, h is the Planck's constant (6.6 x 10^{-34} Js), c is the speed of light (3 x 10^{8} m/s) and λ is the wavelength.

10.20(1.6 x 10^{-9}) = (6.6 x 10^{-34} * 3 x 10^{8})/ λ

λ = \frac{1.98*10^{-25} }{1.632*10^{-8} }

  = 1.213 x 10^{-17}

Wavelength of the photon is 1.2 x 10^{-17} m.

(c) The frequency can be determined by;

E = hf

where f is the frequency of the photon.

1.632 x 10^{-8}  = 6.6 x 10^{-34} x f

f = \frac{1.632*10^{-8} }{6.6*10^{-34} }

 = 2.47 x 10^{25} Hz

Frequency of the emitted photon is 2.47 x 10^{25} Hz.

An optical disk drive in your computer can spin a disk up to 10,000 rpm (about 1045 rad/s ). If a particular disk is spun at 998
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

<em>1988.05 rad/s^2</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The angular speed of the optical disk ω = 998.0 rad/s

the time taken to come to rest t = 0.502 s

The magnitude of the average angular acceleration ∝ = ω/t

∝ = 998.0/0.502 = <em>1988.05 rad/s^2</em>

BEST ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST!
wel

Answer:

Distance = 16.9 m

Explanation:

We are given;

Power; P = 70 W

Intensity; I = 0.0195 W/m²

Now, for a spherical sound wave, the intensity in the radial direction is expressed as a function of distance r from the center of the sphere and is given by the expression;

I = Power/Unit area = P/(4πr²)

where;

P is the sound power

r is the distance.

Thus;

Making r the subject, we have;

r² = P/4πI

r = √(P/4πI)

r = √(70/(4π*0.0195))

r = √285.6627

r = 16.9 m

An electron moves in a circular path perpendicular to a magnetic field of magnitude 0.245 T. If the kinetic energy of the electr
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer

Given,

Magnetic field, B = 0.245 T

KE of the electron = 2.90 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Speed of electron = ?

KE = \dfrac{mv^2}{2}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2(KE)}{m}}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 2.90\times 10^{-19}}{9.11\times 10^{-31}}}

v = 7.97 x 10⁵ m/s

radius of the circular path

so,

\dfrac{mv^2}{r}=evB

r=\dfrac{mv}{eB}

r=\dfrac{9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 7.97 \times 10^5}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.245}

r = 1.85 x 10⁻⁵ m
