Aliens? do you believe?<br><br>To get the points go into detail :)

zzz [600]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

There are so many planets out there that there must be habitable planets if not in our galaxy but the Universe.

Although the chances of advanced life are slim, small primitive life like microbes or sea life may still exist.

What is the wavelength, in nm, of the line in the hydrogen spectrum when one n value is 3 and the other n value is 6?

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

$\lambda=1090nm$

Explanation:

Rydberg formula is used to calculate the wavelengths of the spectral lines of many chemical elements. For the hydrogen, is defined as:

$\frac{1}{\lambda}=R_H(\frac{1}{n_1^2}-\frac{1}{n_2^2})$

Where $R_H$ is the Rydberg constant for hydrogen and $n_1$ , $n_2$ are the lower energy state and the higher energy state, respectively.

$\frac{1}{\lambda}=1.10*10^{7}m^{-1}(\frac{1}{3^2}-\frac{1}{6^2})\\\frac{1}{\lambda}=9.17*10^{5}m^{-1}\\\lambda=\frac{1}{1.09*10^{6}m^{-1}}\\\lambda=1.09*10^{-6}m*\frac{10^{9}nm}{1m}\\\lambda=1090nm$

A tow truck is pulling 25,000 kg van with a tow hook that meets the van at an angle of 30° with the ground. How much force must

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

86605.08 N

Explanation:

The equation to calculate the force is:

Force = mass * acceleration

The force and the acceleration does not have the same direction in this case, so we need to decompose the force into its horizontal component, which is the force that will generate the horizontal acceleration:

Force_x = Force * cos(30)

Then, we have that:

Force_x = mass * acceleration

Force * cos(30) = 25000 * 3

Force * 0.866 = 75000

Force = 75000 / 0.866 = 86605.08 N

By how much does the volume of an aluminum cube 4.00 cm on an edge increase when the cube is heated from 19.0°C to 67.0°C? The l

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The volume of an aluminum cube is 0.212 cm³.

Explanation:

Given that,

Edge of cube = 4.00 cm

Initial temperature = 19.0°C

Final temperature = 67.0°C

linear expansion coefficient $\alpha=23.0\times10^{-6}/C^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the volume expansion coefficient

Using formula of volume expansion coefficient

$\beta=3\alpha$

Put the value into the formula

$\beta=3\times23.0\times10^{-6}$

$\beta=0.000069=69\times10^{-6}/C^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the volume

$V= a^3$

$V=4^3$

$V=64\ cm^3$

The change temperature of the cube is

$\Delta T=T_{f}-T_{i}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta T=67-19 = 48^{\circ}C$

We need to calculate the increases volume

Using formula of increases volume

$\Delta V=V\beta\Delta T$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta V=64\times69\times10^{-6}\times48$

$\Delta V=0.212\ cm^3$

Hence, The volume of an aluminum cube is 0.212 cm³.
