A hypothetical atom has three energy levels: the ground-state level and levels 1.50 eV and 5.00 eV above the ground state. What

is the longest wavelength in the line spectrum for this atom? Let Planck's constant h = 4.136 x 10^-15 ev s, and the speed of light c = 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. (a)355 nm (b)780 nm (c)882 nm (d) 827 nm

Answer:

option (d)

Explanation:

E1 = 1.5 eV = 1.5 x 1.6 x 10^-19 J, E2 = 5 eV = 5 x 1.6 x 10^-19 J, c = 3 x 10^8 m/s, h = 6.62 x 10^-34 Js

Wavelength associated with 1.5 eV is λ1.

E1 = h c / λ1

λ1 = h c / E1

λ1 = (6.62 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (1.5 x 1.6 x 10^-19)

λ1 = 8.275 x 10^-7 m = 827 nm

Wavelength associated with 5 eV is λ2.

E2 = h c / λ2

λ2 = h c / E2

λ2 = (6.62 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (5 x 1.6 x 10^-19)

λ2 = 2.4825 x 10^-7 m = 248 nm

So, the longest wavelength is 827 nm

Why do aeroplanes take longer to fly west than east?
PolarNik [594]

Every planet/moon has global wind that are mostly determined by the way the planet/moon rotates and how evenly the Sun illuminates it. On the Earth the equator gets much more Sun than the poles. resulting in warmer air at the equator than the poles and creating circulation cells (or "Hadley Cells") which consist of warm air rising over the equator and then moving North and South from it and back round.

The Earth is also rotating. When any solid body rotates, bits of it that are nearer its axis move slower than those which are further away. As you move north (or south) from the equator, you are moving closer to the axis of the Earth and so the air which started at the equator and moved north (or south) will be moving faster than the ground it is over (it has the rotation speed of the ground at the equator, not the ground which is is now over). This results in winds which always move from the west to the east in the mid latitudes.

A 2.4 kg block is dropped onto a spring and platform of negligible mass. The block is released
statuscvo [17]

The speed of the block when the compression is 15 cm is 9.85 m/s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>mass of the block, m = 2.4 kg</em>
  • <em>height of the block, h =  5 m</em>
  • <em>compression of the spring, x = 25 cm = 0.25 m</em>

The spring constant is calculated as follows;

F = kx\\\\mg = kx\\\\k = \frac{mg}{x} \\\\k = \frac{2.4 \times 9.8}{0.25} \\\\k = 94.08 \ N/m

The speed of the block when the compression is 15 cm can be determined by applying the principle of conservation of energy;

\Delta K.E = \Delta P.E\\\\\frac{1}{2} m(v^2  - v_{0 }^2 ) = mgh - \frac{1}{2} kx^2\\\\\frac{1}{2} mv^2  = mgh -   \frac{1}{2} kx^2\\\\mv^2   = 2mgh - kx^2\\\\v^2 = \frac{2mgh - kx^2}{m} \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2mgh - kx^2}{m}} \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{(2 \times 2.4 \times 9.8 \times 5) - (94.08 \times 0.15^2)}{2.4}} \\\\v = 9.85 \ m/s

Thus, the speed of the block when the compression is 15 cm is 9.85 m/s.

Un cuerpo se encuentra en reposo sobre una mesa horizontal. Entonces se puede afirmar que:
vazorg [7]

Answer:

C) solo III

Explanation:

Para solucionar este problema debemos analizar cada una de las opciones hasta llegar a la opcion valida.

I) el cuerpo pesa igual que su masa.

Esta opcion no puede ser ya que el peso de un cuerpo se define como el producto de la masa por la aceleracion gravitacion.

w=m*g

donde:

w = peso [N]

m = masa [kg]

g = aceleracion gravitacional = 9.81 [m/s²]

Como podemos ver el peso siempre sera mayar que la masa, ya que el peso es resultado de la multiplicacion de la masa por la gravedad.

II) Por medio de un analisis de fuerzas en el eje-y, la fuerza del peso se dirige hacia abajo mientras que la fuerza normal tiene igual magnitud, pero se dirige hacia arriba. Por esto la segunda opcion no puede ser.

III) El cuerpo se encuentra en equilibrio, es decir las unicas fuerzas que actuan sobre el cuerpo son el peso y la fuerza normal. Pero estas fuerzas son iguales y opuestas en direccion, por la tanto se cancelan y estan en equilibrio.

Esta es la opcion valida, la fuerza neta es nula.

What would cause soil horizons to become mixed?
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

The process of soil formation generally involves the downward movement of clay, water, and dissolved ions, and a common result of that is the development of chemically and texturally different layers known as soil horizons. The typically developed soil horizons, as illustrated in Figure 5.16, are: O — the layer of organic matter A — the layer of partially decayed organic matter mixed with mineral material E— the eluviated (leached) layer from which some of the clay and iron
