If Hubble's constant is 73 km/s/Mpc then the age of the universe is 13.4 billion years, assuming a uniform expansion. Suppose it

were discovered that Hubble's constant is actually larger than 73 km/s/Mpc. What effect would this have on the calculated age of the universe?

Answer:

It would decrease the calculated age of the universe

Explanation:

Since the age of the universe is the reciprocal of Hubble's constant, it's therefore if Hubble's constant is increased the age decreases but if the Hubble's constant is decreased, the age of universe increases. Therefore, the age of universe and Hubble's constant are inversely proportional. Conclusively, any attempt to increase Hubble's constant would imply the calculated age of the universe decreases.

Acid rain is the direct result of acid released by burning fossil fuels. T/F
disa [49]

Answer : False.

Explanation : Acid rain is the indirect result of burning fossil fuels. As the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels releases sulfur dioxide and nitrous dioxide in the air. When it rains it gets mixed with water and forms nitric acid and sulfuric acid which causes acid rain. Acid rain is harmful.

A certain atom has atomic number Z = 25 and atomic mass number A = 52. a. What is the approximate radius of the nucleus of this
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a)The approximate radius of the nucleus of this atom is 4.656 fermi.

b) The electrostatic force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter of the nucleus is 2.6527

Explanation:

r=r_o\times A^{\frac{1}{3}}

r_o=1.25 \times 10^{-15} m = Constant for all nuclei

r = Radius of the nucleus

A = Number of nucleons

a) Given atomic number of an element = 25

Atomic mass or nucleon number = 52

r=1.25 \times 10^{-15} m\times (52)^{\frac{1}{3}}

r=4.6656\times 10^{-15} m=4.6656 fm

The approximate radius of the nucleus of this atom is 4.656 fermi.

b) F=k\times \frac{q_1q_2}{a^2}

k=9\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2 = Coulombs constant

q_1,q_2 = charges kept at distance 'a' from each other

F = electrostatic force between charges

q_1=+1.602\times 10^{-19} C

q_2=+1.602\times 10^{-19} C

Force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter

a=2\times r=2\times 4.6656\times 10^{-15} m=9.3312\times 10^{-15} m

F=9\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2\times \frac{(+1.602\times 10^{-19} C)\times (+1.602\times 10^{-19} C)}{(9.3312\times 10^{-15} m)^2}

F=2.6527 N

The electrostatic force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter of the nucleus is 2.6527

The bright-line spectrum of an element in the gaseous phase is produced as 1. protons move from lower energy states to higher en
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

4. Electrons move from higher energy states to lower energy states.

Explanation:

When electrons fall from a higher (excited) energy state to a lower energy state, it loses/gives out energy.

This energy is given out by the emission of photons (quanta of light) by the electron.

A spherical capacitor contains a charge of 3.00 nC when connected to a potential difference of 230 V. If its plates are separate
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Part(a): the capacitance is 0.013 nF.

Part(b): the radius of the inner sphere is 3.1 cm.

Part(c): the electric field just outside the surface of inner sphere is \bf{2.81 \times 10^{4}~n~C^{-1}}.

Explanation:

We know that if 'a' and 'b' are the inner and outer radii of the shell respectively, 'Q' is the total charge contains by the capacitor subjected to a potential difference of 'V' and '\epsilon_{0}' be the permittivity of free space, then the capacitance (C) of the spherical shell can be written as

C = \dfrac{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}}{(\dfrac{1}{a} - \dfrac{1}{b})}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(1)

Part(a):

Given, charge contained by the capacitor Q = 3.00 nC and potential to which it is subjected to is V = 230V.

So the capacitance (C) of the shell is

C &=& \dfrac{Q}{V} = \dfrac{3 \times 10^{-90}~C}{230~V} = 1.3 \times 10^{-11}~F = 0.013~nF

Part(b):

Given the inner radius of the outer shell b = 4.3 cm = 0.043 m. Therefore, from equation (1), rearranging the terms,

&& \dfrac{1}{a} = \dfrac{1}{b} + \dfrac{1}{C/4 \pi \epsilon_{0}} = \dfrac{1}{0.043} + \dfrac{1}{1.3 \times 10^{-11} \times 9 \times 10^{9}} = 31.79\\&or,& a = \dfrac{1}{31.79}~m = 0.031~m = 3.1~cm

Part(c):

If we apply Gauss' law of electrostatics, then

&& E~4 \pi a^{2} = \dfrac{Q}{\epsilon_{0}}\\&or,& E = \dfrac{Q}{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}a^{2}}\\&or,& E = \dfrac{3 \times 10^{-9} \times 9 \times 10^{9}}{0.031^{2}}~N~C^{-1}\\&or,& E = 2.81 \times 10^{4}~N~C^{-1}
