In the Bohr model of hydrogen, the electron moves in a circular orbit around the nucleus. (a) Determine the orbital frequency of
Airida [17]

Answer:

(a) 6.567 * 10^15 rev/s or hertz

(b) 8.21 * 10^14 rev/s or hertz

Explanation:

Fn= 4π^2k^2e^4m * z^2/(h^3*n^3)

Where Fn is frequency at all levels of n.

Z = 1 (nucleus)

e = 1.6 * 10^-19c

m = 9.1 * 10^-31 kg

h = 6.62 * 10-34

K = 9 * 10^9 Nm2/c2

(a) for groundstate n = 1

Fn = 4 * π^2 * (9*10^9)^2*(1.6*10^-19)^4* (9.1 * 10^-31) * 1 / (6.62 * 10^-31)^3 = 6.567 * 10^15 rev/s

(b) first excited state

n = 1

We multiple the groundstate answer by 1/n^3

6.567 * 10^15 rev/s/ 2^3

F2 = 8.2 * 10^ 14 rev/s

The concentration of sodium and potassium ions in the blood and body fluid is regulated by :
Liula [17]

Answer:

Kidney

Explanation:

One of the main function of the kidney is to maintain the homeostasis of sodium and potassium ions in the blood and body.

Aldosterone is a key steroid hormone that balances sodium and potassium ions in the blood and body fluid. Potassium and sodium ions generate electric impulse in the body which helps to perform different activities such as muscles flexing.

Kidney function for reabsorption and secretion, in which reabsorption of Na is done nd balances the sodium and potassium in the blood and body.

Find the energy in Joules required to lift a 55.0 Megagram object a distance of 500 cm.
fredd [130]

Energy to lift something =

               (mass of the object) x (gravity) x (height of the lift).

BUT ...

This simple formula only works if you use the right units.

Mass . . . kilograms
Gravity . . . meters/second²
Height . . . meters

For this question . . .

Mass = 55 megagram = 5.5 x 10⁷ grams = 5.5 x 10⁴ kilograms

Gravity (on Earth) = 9.8 m/second²

Height = 500 cm  =  5.0 meters

So we have ...

Energy = (5.5 x 10⁴ kilogram) x (9.8 m/s²) x (5 m)

            =  2,696,925 joules .

That's quite a large amount of energy ... equivalent to
straining at the rate of 1 horsepower for almost exactly an
hour, or burning a 100 watt light bulb for about 7-1/2 hours.

The reason is the large mass that's being lifted.
On Earth, that much mass weighs about 61 tons.

If the accuracy in measuring the position of a particle increases, the accuracy in measuring its velocity will Group of answer c
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The correct answer is Option A (decrease).

Explanation:

  • According to Heisenberg's presumption of unpredictability, it's impossible to ascertain a quantum state viewpoint as well as momentum throughout tandem.
  • Also, unless we have accurate estimations throughout the situation, we will have a decreased consistency throughout the velocity as well as vice versa though too.

Other given choices are not connected to the given query. Thus the above is the right answer.

If the current through a 20-Ω resistor is 8.0 A , how much energy is dissipated by the resistor in 1.0 h ? Express your answer w
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

P(3600)=593.247W

Explanation:

First, let's find the voltage through the resistor using ohm's law:

V=IR=20*8=160V

AC power as function of time can be calculated as:

P(t)= V*I*cos(\phi)-V*I*cos(2 \omega t-\phi)  (1)

Where:

\phi=Phase\hspace{3}angle\\\omega= Angular\hspace{3}frequency

Because of the problem doesn't give us additional information, let's assume:

\phi=0\\\omega=2 \pi f=2*\pi *(60)=120\pi

Evaluating the equation (1) in t=3600 (Because 1h equal to 3600s):

P(3600)=160*8*cos(0)-160*8*cos(2*120\pi*3600-0)\\P(3600)=1280-1280*cos(2714336.053)\\P(3600)=1280-1280*0.5365255751\\P(3600)=1280-686.7527361=593.2472639\approx=593.247W
