The laser pointer emits light because electrons in the material are excited (by a battery) from their ground state to an upper e

xcited state. When the electrons return to the ground state, they lose the excess energy in the form of 520-nm photons. What is the energy gap between the ground state and excited state in the laser material

Answer:

Explanation:

the energy gap between the ground state and excited state in the laser material will be equal to energy of photons emitted

Wave length of photons = 520 nm

Energy = 1244 / 520 e V ( Formula for conversion of wavelength in nm to energy in eV )

=   2.4  e V

 the energy gap between the ground state and excited state in the laser material  =   2.4  e V

A 50-ω resistor is connected to a 9.0 V battery. How much thermal energy is produced in 7.5 minutes?1.2 * 10^2 J1.3 * 10^3 J3.0
emmasim [6.3K]

In order to calculate the thermal energy, first let's calculate the power, using the formula:

P=\frac{V^2}{R}

For a voltage V = 9 Volts and a resistance R = 50 ohms, we have:

\begin{gathered} P=\frac{9^2}{50} \\ P=\frac{81}{50}=1.62\text{ W} \end{gathered}

Now, multiplying the power by the time (in seconds), we can find the energy:

\begin{gathered} E=P\cdot t \\ E=1.62\cdot7.5\cdot60 \\ E=729\text{ J} \end{gathered}

In scientific notation, we have an energy of 7.3 * 10^2 J, therefore the correct option is the fourth one.

A kite 100 ft above the ground moves horizontally at a speed of 12 ft/s. at what rate is the angle (in radians) between the stri
Viefleur [7K]
<span>Answer: So this involves right triangles. The height is always 100. Let the horizontal be x and the length of string be z. So we have x2 + 1002 = z2. Now take its derivative in terms of time to get 2x(dx/dt) = 2z(dz/dt) So at your specific moment z = 200, x = 100âš3 and dx/dt = +8 substituting, that makes dz/dt = 800âš3 / 200 or 4âš3. Part 2 sin a = 100/z = 100 z-1 . Now take the derivative in terms of t to get cos a (da./dt) = -100/ z2 (dz/dt) So we know z = 200, which makes this a 30-60-90 triangle, therefore a=30 degrees or Ď€/6 radians. Substitute to get cos (Ď€/6)(da/dt) = (-100/ 40000)(4âš3) âš3 / 2 (da/dt) = -âš3 / 100 da/dt = -1/50 radians</span>

A wave can be described as
rewona [7]
A wave can be described as the disturbance of particles in an area. Think about it this way: particles (matter) carry energy. For all the laws of physics to work, this energy must be "traded" somehow. This happens by miniscule vibrations in the particles, which are apparent disturbances. This creates a wave, and therefore a wave is, indeed, a disturbance.<span />

When cs-137 decays, it emits gamma radiation. the energy of one photon is 1.06 × 10-13 j. what is the wavelength of this radiati
Kryger [21]
To find the solution to the problem, we would be using Planck's equation which is E = hv
Where:
E = energy
h = Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10-34 J·s
ν = frequency
Then, you’ll need a second equation which is c = λν
Where:
c = speed of light = 3 x 108 m/sec
λ = wavelength
ν = frequency
Reorder the equation to solve for frequency:ν = c/λ
Next, substitute frequency in the first equation with c/λ to get a formula you can use:
E = hν
E = hc/λ
But we are looking for the wavelength, so rearrange it more, then our final equation would be:
λ = hc / E 
λ = (6.625E-34)(3.0E8 m/s) / (1.06E-13) 
λ = 1.875E-12 m
