Answer:

The initial energy level = 6

Explanation:

Photon wavelength is proportional to energy. The wavelength of emitted photons is related to the energy levels of the atom as given by the Rydberg formula:

ₕ₁₂

(1/λ) = Rₕ [(1/n₂²) − (1/n₁²)]

where n₂ = final energy level = 2

n₁ = initial energy level = ?

Rₕ = Rydberg's constant = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹

λ = wavelength = 410 nm = 410 × 10⁻⁹ m

1/(410 × 10⁻⁹) = (1.097 × 10⁷) [(1/2²) − (1/n₁²)]

0.223 = [(1/4) − (1/n₁²)]

(1/n₁²) = 0.02778

n₁² = 1/0.02778 = 36

n₁ = 6.

A single crystal of a metal that has the FCC crystal structure is oriented such that a tensile stress is applied parallel to the
algol13

Stress required to cause slip on in the direction [ 1 1 0 ] is 7.154 MPa

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given -

Stress Direction, A = [1 0 0 ]

Slip plane = [ 1 1 1]

Normal to slip plane, B = [ 1 1 1 ]

Critical stress, Sc = 2.92 MPa

Let the direction of slip on = [ 1 1 0 ]

Let Ф be the angle between A and B

cos Ф = A.B/ |A| |B| = [ 1 0 0 ] [1 1 1] / √1 √3

cos Ф = 1/√3

σ = Sc / cosФ cosλ

For slip along [ 1 1 0 ]

cos λ = [ 1 1 0 ] [ 1 0 0 ] / √2 √1

cos λ = 1/√2

Therefore,

σ = 2.92 / 1/√3 1/√2

σ = √6 X 2.92 MPa = 2.45 X 2.92 = 7.154MPa

Therefore, stress required to cause slip on in the direction [ 1 1 0 ] is 7.154MPa

Which type of reaction occurs without being started by some outside force?
Nostrana [21]
A spontaneous reaction is a term that is best describe to a type of reaction wherein it is started without even with the help of an outside force. In addition to that, this kind of reaction is commonly driven by the forces of enthalpy and entropy which are essential concepts to thermodynamics.
