What is the highest energy photon that can be absorbed by a ground-state hydrogen atom without causing ionization?

lakkis [162]

Highest energy photon absorbed: $2.18\cdot 10^{-18}J$

Explanation:

An atom is said to be (positively) ionised when it absorbs a photon, and as a consequence, an electron becomes energetic enough to escape the atom, leaving an excess of positive charge behind.

In order for the electron to escape, the energy of the absorbed photon must be exactly equal to the (negative) energy of the level in which the electron lies.

For an hydrogen atom, the energy levels are given by

$E_n = -13.6 \frac{1}{n^2}$

where this energy is measured in electronvolts, and n is the number of the energy level.

Since the energy is negative, this means that the electron which requires most energy is the one lying in the ground state (n=1). Therefore, for an electron in the ground state, the most energy that can be absorbed from the incoming photon is

$E_1 = -13.6 eV$

Converting into Joules, this is equal to

$E_1 = 13.6 \cdot 1.6\cdot 10^{-19}=2.18\cdot 10^{-18}J$

Bird bones have air pockets in them to reduce their weight—this also gives them an average density significantly less thanthat o

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

41.4 g

41.4 cm³

1.08695 g/cm³

Explanation:

$\rho$ = Density of water = 1 g/cm³

Mass of water displaced will be the difference of the

$m=45-3.6\\\Rightarrow m=41.4\ g$

Mass of water displaced is 41.4 g

Density is given by

$\rho=\dfrac{m}{v}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{m}{\rho}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{41.4}{1}\\\Rightarrow v=41.4\ cm^3$

So, volume of bone is 41.4 cm³

Average density of the bird is given by

$\rho=\dfrac{45}{41.4}\\\Rightarrow \rho=1.08695\ g/cm^3$

The average density is 1.08695 g/cm³

Work done by a gravitational force by lowering the bucket into the well is

katovenus [111]

Answer:

when we lower a bucket into a well to fetch water, the work done by gravity is positive since force and displacement are in the same direction.

A long ramp made of cast iron is sloped at a constant angle θ = 52.0∘ above the horizontal. Small blocks, each with mass 0.42 kg

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

For cast iron we have

$h = 0.92 m$

For copper

$h = 1.05 m$

For Lead

$h = 1.23 m$

For Zinc

$h = 2.43 m$

Explanation:

As we know that final speed of the block is calculated by work energy theorem

$W_f + W_g = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we have

$-\mu_k mg cos\theta(\frac{h}{sin\theta}) + mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we have

$v^2 = 2gh - 2\mu_k g h cot\theta$

$v = \sqrt{2gh(1 - \mu_k cot\theta)}$

For cast iron we have

$4 = \sqrt{2(9.81)(h)(1 - 0.15cot52)}$

$h = 0.92 m$

For copper

$4 = \sqrt{2(9.81)(h)(1 - 0.29cot52)}$

$h = 1.05 m$

For Lead

$4 = \sqrt{2(9.81)(h)(1 - 0.43cot52)}$

$h = 1.23 m$

For Zinc

$4 = \sqrt{2(9.81)(h)(1 - 0.85cot52)}$

$h = 2.43 m$
