Answer:

2.63 cm

Explanation:

Hooke's law gives that the force F is equal to cy where c is spring constant and x is extension

Making c the subject of the formula then

c=\frac {F}{y}

Since F is gm but taking the given mass to be F

c=\frac {5.4 kg}{4.3 cm}=1.2558139534883720930232558139534883720930

By substitution now considering F to be 3.3 kg

y=\frac {3.3 kg}{1.2558139534883720930232558139534883720930}=2.6277777777777 cm\approx 2.63 cm

A photon is absorbed by an electron that is in the n = 3 state of a hydrogen atom, causing the hydrogen atom to become ionized.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

\lambda=3.99*10^{-7}m

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the energy of the absorbed photon must be equal to the binding energy of the electron plus the energy of the released electron:

E_p=E_b+E_r\\\frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{13.6eV}{n^2}+\frac{m_ev^2}{2}

1 eV is equal to 1.6*10^{-19}J, so:

13.6eV*\frac{1.6*10^{-19}J}{1eV}=2.18*10^{-18}J

Solving for \lambda and replacing the given values:

\lambda=\frac{hc}{\frac{2.18*10^{-18}J}{n^2}+\frac{m_ev^2}{2}}\\\lambda=\frac{6.63*10^{-134}J\cdot s(3*10^8\frac{m}{s})}{\frac{2.18*10^{-18}J}{3^2}+\frac{(9.11*10^{-31}kg)(7.5*10^5\frac{m}{s})^2}{2}}\\\lambda=3.99*10^{-7}m

How to increase the current in a circuit
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

So to increase current of the circuit what you can do is :

1. Use conductor of low resistivity, ¶.

2. Use conductor of small length.

3. Use thick wire.

4. Decrease the temperature of the circuit.

5. If operating temprature is high than use semiconductor, because it have negative temprature coefficient.

6. Minimise the circuit losses.

What is kinetic energy and what is net force formula
Over [174]

Answer:

Here's the equation for net force: F = ma. The work done on the plane, which becomes its kinetic energy, equals the following: Net force F equals mass times acceleration. Assume that you're pushing in the same direction that the plane is going; in this case, cos 0 degrees = 1, so.

Explanation:

In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes

Hope this help also looking it up helps ;)

. A 79 g sample of water at 21oC is heated until it becomes steam with a temperature of 143oC. Find the change in heat content o
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

40479.6 J

Explanation:

Applying,

q = cm(t₂-t₁).................... Equation 1

Where q = change in heat content of the system, c = specific heat capacity of the system, m = mass of the system, t₁ = initial temperature, t₂ = final temperature.

From the question,

Given: m = 79 g = 0.079 kg, t₁ = 21°C, t₂ = 143°C

Constant: c = 4200 J/kg.°C

Substitute these values into equation 1

q = 4200(0.079)(143-21)

q = 331.8(122)

q = 40479.6 J
