Answer : The energy of one photon of hydrogen atom is, 3.03\times 10^{-19}J

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the wavelength of hydrogen atom.

Using Rydberg's Equation:

\frac{1}{\lambda}=R_H\left(\frac{1}{n_i^2}-\frac{1}{n_f^2} \right )

Where,

\lambda = Wavelength of radiation

R_H = Rydberg's Constant  = 10973731.6 m⁻¹

n_f = Higher energy level = 3

n_i= Lower energy level = 2

Putting the values, in above equation, we get:

\frac{1}{\lambda}=(10973731.6)\left(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2} \right )

\lambda=6.56\times 10^{-7}m

Now we have to calculate the energy.

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where,

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

\lambda = wavelength = 6.56\times 10^{-7}m

Putting the values, in this formula, we get:

E=\frac{(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)}{6.56\times 10^{-7}m}

E=3.03\times 10^{-19}J

Therefore, the energy of one photon of hydrogen atom is, 3.03\times 10^{-19}J

The particles ejected from the sun during a coronal mass ejection is called
ipn [44]

Answer:

Plasma

Explanation:

A Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is an outburst of energy that occurs near the outer part of the sun's atmosphere which causes a production of plasma along with a magnetic field.

The outermost part of the sun's atmosphere is called the Solar Corona Although difficult to see, the corona can be seen during a total solar eclipse.

Plasma from CME are clouds of magnetized electrically charged particles which the solar wind causes to travel at a speed of 1.6 million km/hr.

What is gravitational field intensity?​
mezya [45]

<h3>Answers :</h3>

The gravitational field intensity (EG) or (g) is the force on a unit mass at a point in the field.  

Since the force (F) on a body of mass m in a gravitational field of a body of mass M = GMm/r2 .

you can see that the force per unit mass is given by F/m. So:

Gravitational Field Intensity (EG) = (g) = F/m = GM/r2

The units for EG are N kg -1 or since F = ma, F/m = a and so EG may be expressed in ms -2

Hope this will help you :))
