Answer:

You will discover that at high altitude, there is cold and the opposite is experienced when you go deep down the sea. However, the reason elevation affects climate and temperature gets colder is this. As you go higher up, the atmosphere experiences less pressure.

The Hurricane's "eye" is surrounded by a "wall" of fast moving air? True or False

S_A_V [24]

True because The Eye Wall of a hurricane's most devastating region. Located just outside of the eye is the eye wall. This is the location within a hurricane where the most damaging winds and intense rainfall is found. At the surface, the winds are rushing towards the center of a hurricane forcing air upwards at the center.

An electron is trapped in an infinite square-well potential of width 0.6 nm. If the electron is initially in the n = 4 state, wh

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

E₁ = 1.042 eV

E₄₋₃= 7.29 eV

E₄₋₂= 12.50 eV

E₄₋₁= 15.63 eV

E₃₋₂= 5.21eV

E₃₋₁= 8.34eV

E₂₋₁= 3.13eV

Explanation:

The energy in an infinite square-well potential is giving by:

$E = \frac {h^{2} n^{2}}{8mL^{2}}$

where, h: Planck constant = 6.62x10⁻³⁴J.s, n: is the energy state, m: mass of the electron and L: widht of the square-well potential

The energy of the electron in the ground state, n = 1, is:

$E_{1} = \frac {(6.62 \cdot 10^{-34})^{2} (1)^{2}}{(8) (9.11 \cdot 10^{-31}) (0.6 \cdot 10^{-9} m)^{2}}$

$E_{1} = 1.67 \cdot 10^{-19} J = 1.042 eV$

The photon energies that are emitted as the electron jumps to the ground state is the difference between the states:

$E_{\Delta n} = \Delta n^{2} E_{1}$

$E_{(4 - 3)} = (4^{2} - 3^{2}) 1.042 eV = 7.29eV$

$E_{(4 - 2)} = (4^{2} - 2^{2}) 1.042 eV = 12.50eV$

$E_{(4 - 1)} = (4^{2} - 1^{2}) 1.042 eV = 15.63eV$

$E_{(3 - 2)} = (3^{2} - 2^{2}) 1.042 eV = 5.21eV$

$E_{(3 - 1)} = (3^{2} - 1^{2}) 1.042 eV = 8.34eV$

$E_{(2 - 1)} = (2^{2} - 1^{2}) 1.042 eV = 3.13eV$

What is Ohm's Law, and how does it work in real life.

Firdavs [7]

Explanation:

Ohms law states that the electrical current present in a metallic conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference between the metallic conductor and inversely proportional to the resistance therefore if the voltage is increased resistance also increases provided that temperature and other physical properties remains constant V=IR

Archimedes supposedly was asked to determine whether a crown made for the king consisted of puregold. According to legend, he so

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

the crown was not made of pure gold

Explanation:

Mass of gold = weight in air/ g = 7.84N/10ms-2= 0.784 Kg or 0.8Kg

From Archimedes principle:

Upthrust= weight in air- weight in a fluid

Upthrust= volume × density × g

Note density of water = 1000kgm-3

7.84-6.84= V × 1000kgm-3×10ms-2

V= 1/10000= 1×10-4 m^3

Density = mass/ volume= 0.8/1×10-4

= 8×10^3 Kgm-3

But we know the density of gold to be 19.3 ×10^3 kgm-3

Hence the crown was not made of pure gold
