Why do things become hot or cold? Relate to Thermal Energy and The Law of Conservation of Energy

Physics
1 answer:
Mekhanik [1.2K]3 years ago
4 0

<u>Answer:</u>

Things become hot and cold because of the transfer of energy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The energy possessed by an object or system is called thermal energy and heat is the flow of this energy. While the law of conversation of energy states that energy is not destroyed or created, it just transfers from one object to another.  

When a hot object is placed in normal conditions, it transfers heat to the environment until both are at the same temperature and heat transfers from the environment to the cold objects placed in normal conditions.

Nata [24]

Answer:t

Explanation:

Given that,

Power output is

P = 0.50kW = 0.5 × 1000 = 500W.

We want to find energy transfer in

t = 2minutes = 2 × 60 = 120 seconds

Also, time to hour

t = 2/60 = 1/30 hour

Power is the rate of energy.

Therefore,

Power = energy / time taken

Energy = power × time taken

Energy = 0.5kW × 1/30 hr

Energy = 0.01667 kWh

Also, energy in Joule

Energy = power × time

Energy = 500W × 120s

Energy = 60,000J

Energy = 60kJ.

A hydrogen atom that has an electron in the n = 2 state absorbs a photon. What wavelength must the photon possess to send the el
Deffense [45]

Answer:

486nm

Explanation:

in order for an electron to transit from one level to another, the wavelength emitted is given by Rydberg Equation which states that

\frac{1}{wavelength}=R.[\frac{1}{n_{f}^{2} } -\frac{1}{n_{i}^{2} }] \\n_{f}=2\\n_{i}=4\\R=Rydberg constant =1.097*10^{7}m^{-1}\\subtitiute \\\frac{1}{wavelength}=1.097*10^{7}[\frac{1}{2^{2} } -\frac{1}{4^{2}}]\\\frac{1}{wavelength}= 1.097*10^{7}*0.1875\\\frac{1}{wavelength}= 2.06*10^{6}\\wavelength=4.86*10{-7}m\\wavelength= 486nm\\

Hence the photon must possess a wavelength of 486nm in order to send the electron to the n=4 state
