Which of the following represents the greatest energy transition from a higher energy level to a lower one?
prohojiy [21]
You need to use Planck's law:
E = h·υ = (h·c)/λ

Without making all the calculations, a fraction is bigger than another when the denominator is smaller. Therefore you need to find the smallest wavelength (λ) which is 450nm.

You could also be helped by colors: in order of decreasing energy, you have blue - green - yellow - red.

In any case, the correct answer is a).

A man paddles a canoe at 6 km per hour. If he paddles on a river with a current of 6 km per hour, what is the speed of the canoe
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

If the canoe heads upstream the speed is zero. And directly across the river is  8.48 [km/h] towards southeast

Explanation:

When the canoe moves upstream, it is moving in the opposite direction of the normal river current. Since the velocities are vector (magnitude and direction) we can sum each vector:

Vr = velocity of the river = 6[km/h}

Vc = velocity of the canoe = -6 [km/h]

We take the direction of the river as positive, therefore other velocity in the opposite direction will be negative.

Vt = Vr + Vc = 6 - 6 = 0 [km/h]

For the second question, we need to make a sketch of the canoe and we are watching this movement at a high elevation. So let's say that the canoe is located in point 0 where it is located one of the river's borders.

So we are having one movement to the right (x-direction). And the movement of the river to the south ( - y-direction).

Since the velocities are vector we can sum each vector, so using the Pythagoras theorem we have:

Vt = \sqrt{(6)^{2} +(-6)^{2} } \\Vt=8.48[km/h]

How are the different firework shapes produced
AleksAgata [21]

To create the shapes, stars are arranged on a piece of cardboard in the desired configuration. If the stars are placed in a smiley face pattern on the cardboard, for example, they will explode into a smiley face in the sky. In fact, you may see several smiley faces in the sky at one time.

Why is centrifugal force is a fake force?<br>​
mash [69]

Answer:

We say fictitious because the actual source of the centrifugal acceleration is somewhat indirect and the experience one has results from the unbalanced forces acting on the reference frame, not a force. Note, it is an acceleration not a force. For instance, imagine yourself on a swing.

Visible light passes through a diffraction grating that has 900 slits per centimeter, and the interference pattern is observed o
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

\Delta \lambda=14.3\ nm

Explanation:

It is given that,

The number of lines per unit length, N = 900 slits per cm

Distance between the formed pattern and the grating, l = 2.3 m

n the first-order spectrum, maxima for two different wavelengths are separated on the screen by 2.98 mm, \Delta Y=2.98\ mm = 0.00298\ m

Let d is the slit width of the grating,

d=\dfrac{1}{N}

d=\dfrac{1}{900\ cm}

d=1.11\times 10^{-5}\ m

For the first wavelength, the position of maxima is given by :

y_1=\dfrac{L\lambda_1}{d}

For the other wavelength, the position of maxima is given by :

y_2=\dfrac{L\lambda_2}{d}

So,

\Delta \lambda=\dfrac{\Delta y d}{l}

\Delta \lambda=\dfrac{0.00298\times 1.11\times 10^{-5}}{2.3}

\Delta \lambda=1.43\times 10^{-8}\ m

or

\Delta \lambda=14.3\ nm

So, the difference between these wavelengths is 14.3 nm. Hence, this is the required solution.
