Correct answer choice is :

A) Atmospheric composition

Explanation:

A radiosonde is a battery-powered telemetry device transmitted into the environment normally by a weather balloon that regulates several atmospheric parameters and sends them by radio to a ground receiver. The radiosonde is a small, expandable device unit that is recessed below a six-foot-wide balloon inflated with hydrogen or helium. As the radiosonde stands at about 1,000 feet/minute, sensors on the radiosonde measure forms of pressure, temperature, and related moisture.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. Atmospheric composition is not a measurement taken by a radiosonde. A radiosonde is an instrument used to measure different atmospheric parameters.

The period of rotation of Mars is 1 day and 37 minutes. Determine its frequency of rotation in Hertz.

Sholpan [36]

The frequency of rotation of Mars is 0.0000113 Hertz.

Given the following data:

Period = 1 day and 37 minutes.

To find the frequency of rotation in Hertz:

First of all, we would convert the the value of period in days and minutes to seconds because the period of oscillation of a physical object is measured in seconds.

Conversion:

1 day = 24 hours

24 hours to minutes = $60$ × $24$ = $1440$ minutes

$1440 + 37 = 1477 \; minutes$

1 minute = 60 seconds

1477 minute = X seconds

Cross-multiplying, we have:

$X = 60$ × $1477$

X = 88620 seconds

Now, we can find the frequency of rotation of Mars by using the formula:

$Frequency = \frac{1}{Period}\\\\Frequency = \frac{1}{88620}$

Frequency of rotation = 0.0000113 Hertz

Therefore, the frequency of rotation of Mars is 0.0000113 Hertz.

A 300 g glass thermometer initially at 23 ◦C is put into 236 cm3 of hot water at 87 ◦C. Find the final temperature of the thermo

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

$74^{\circ} C$

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of glass, $m=300 g$

$T_1=23^{\circ}$

Volume, $V=236cm^3$

Mass of water= $density\times volume=1\times 236=236 g$

Density of water= $1g/cm^3$

Temperature of hot water, $T=87^{\circ}$

Specific heat of glass, $C_g=0.2cal/g^{\circ}C$

Specific heat of water, $C_w=1 cal/g^{\circ}C$

$Q_{glass}=m_gC_g(T_f-T_1)=300\times 0.2(T_f-23)$

$Q_{water}=m_wC_w(T_f-T)=236\times 1(T_f-87)$

$Q_{glass}+Q_{water}=0$

$300\times 0.2(T_f-23)+236\times 1(T_f-87)$

$60T_f-1380+236T_f-20532=0$

$296T_f=20532+1380=21912$

$T_f=\frac{21912}{296}=74^{\circ} C$

Calculate the energy of a photon emitted when an electron in a hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from =7 to =1.

Harrizon [31]

1.549×10-19lJ is the energy of a photon emitted when an electron in a hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from =7 to =1.

The equation E= hcE =hc, where h is Planck's constant and c is the speed of light, describes the inverse relationship between a photon's energy (E) and the wavelength of light ().

The Rydberg formula is used to determine the energy change.

Rydberg's original formula used wavelengths, but we may rewrite it using units of energy instead. The result is the following.

aaΔE=R(1n2f−1n2i) aa

were

2.17810-18lJ is the Rydberg constant.

The initial and ultimate energy levels are ni and nf.

As a change of pace from

n=5 to n=3 gives us

ΔE

=2.178×10-18lJ (132−152)

=2.178×10-18lJ (19−125)

=2.178×10-18lJ×25 - 9/25×9

=2.178×10-18lJ×16/225

=1.549×10-19lJ
