Answer:

1.3 x 10⁻⁴ m

Explanation:

\lambda = wavelength of the light = 450 nm = 450 x 10⁻⁹ m

n = order of the bright fringe = 1

θ = angle = 0.2°

d = separation between the slits

For bright fringe, Using the equation

d Sinθ = n \lambda

Inserting the values

d Sin0.2° = (1) (450 x 10⁻⁹)

d (0.003491) = (450 x 10⁻⁹)

d = 1.3 x 10⁻⁴ m

A photon ionizes a hydrogen atom from the ground state. The liberated electron 11. recombines with a proton into the first excit
anygoal [31]

Answer:

a) 23.2 e V

b) energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV

Explanation:

given,

energy at ground level = -13.6 e V

energy at first exited state = - 3.4 e V

A photon of energy ionized from ground state and electron of energy K is released.

h ν₁ - 13.6 = K

K combine with photon in first exited state giving out photon of energy

h\nu_2 =\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}=\dfrac{12400}{466}

            = 26.6 e V

h c = 6.626 ×  10⁻³⁴ ×  3  × 10⁸  = 12400 e V A°

K + ( 3.4 ) = 26.6 e V

a) energy of free electron

K = 26.6 - 3.4 = 23.2 e V

b) energy of the original photon

h ν₁ - 13.6 = K

h ν₁  = 23.2 + 13.6

       = 36.8 e V

energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV

80 grams of iron at 100°C is dropped into 200 of water at 20°C contained in an iron vessel of mass 50 gram find the resulting te
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

the resulting temperature is 23.37 ⁰C

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the iron, m₁ = 80 g = 0.08 kg

mass of the water, m₂ = 200 g = 0.2 kg

mass of the iron vessel, m₃ = 50 g = 0.05 kg

initial temperature of the iron, t₁ = 100 ⁰C

initial temperature of the water, t₂ = 20 ⁰C

specific heat capacity of iron, c₁ = 462 J/kg⁰C

specific heat capacity of water, c₂ = 4,200 J/kg⁰C

let the temperature of the resulting mixture = T

Apply the principle of conservation of energy;

heat lost by the hot iron = heat gained by the water

m_1c_1 \Delta t_1 = m_2c_2\Delta t_2\\\\m_1c_1 (100 - T) = m_2c_2 (T- 20)\\\\0.08 \times 462 (100-T) = 0.2 \times 4,200 (T-20)\\\\36.96 (100-T) = 840 (T-20) \\\\100 - T = 22.72 (T-20)\\\\100-T = 22.72 T - 454.4 \\\\554.4 = 23.72T\\\\T = \frac{554.4}{23.72} \\\\T = 23.37 \ ^0C

Therefore, the resulting temperature is 23.37 ⁰C

Genetic information responsible for physical characteristics such as eye color, height, hair color, and skin color can be found
fredd [130]

Answer: Genetic information responsible for physical characteristics such as eye color, height, hair color, and skin color can be found in an organism's <u>DNA.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Our genetic information is stored in DNA. DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) molecule is a double helix structure which carries information which used in development and growth of body and determines physical characteristics such as eye color, height, hair color and skin color.

Hysical science is defined as the study of observable phenomena in the universe. 

<span>the main idea of physical science is known as the "scientific method". </span>

<span>this method states: </span>

<span>observe a "real" ( not imaginary ) phenomena. </span>

<span>make a hypothesis ( or theory / idea ) that EXPLAINS this phenomena. </span>

<span>conduct a real experiment to test this hyothesis. </span>

<span>confirm that the experiment validates the original hypothesis and if necessary amend the theory. </span>

<span>it has worked so well that the very communication you are having with me is a result of the wonders of physical science. </span>
