  1. Mercury and Alcohol
  2. Mercury:

i) It is a good conductor of heat and therefore the whole liquid reaches the temperature of the surroundings quickly.

ii) It does not wet (cling to the sides of) the tube.

Alcohol:

i) Alcohol has greater value of temperature coefficient of expansion than mercury.

ii) it's freezing point is below –100°C.

Calculate the wavelengths of the first five members of the Lyman series of spectral lines, providing the result in units Angstro
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for hydrogen atomic  spectrum is as follows

energy of photon due to transition from higher orbit n₂ to n₁

E=13.6 (\frac{1}{n_1^2 } - \frac{1}{n_2^2})eV

For layman series n₁ = 1 and n₂ = 2 , 3 , 4 ,   ...   etc

energy of first line

E_1=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{2 ^2})

10.2 eV

wavelength of photon = 12375 / 10.2 = 1213.2 A

energy of 2 nd line

E_2=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{3 ^2})

= 12.08 eV

wavelength of photon = 12375 / 12.08 = 1024.4 A

energy of third line

E_3=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{4 ^2})

12.75 e V

wavelength of photon = 12375 / 12.75 = 970.6 A

energy of fourth line

E_4=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{5 ^2})

= 13.056 eV

wavelength of photon = 12375 / 13.05 = 948.3 A

energy of fifth line

E_5=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{6 ^2})

13.22 eV

wavelength of photon = 12375 / 13.22 = 936.1 A

How many components do vectors have, and what are they?
zepelin [54]

Answer:

There are two components for a two-dimensional coordinate system/vector.

Explanation:

For two-dimensional vectors, such as velocity, acceleraton, etc, there are two components, the x- and y-components.

These components could be rotated or translated, depending on the coordinate system.

Instead of rectangular cartesian system, the components could also be in the form of polar coordinates, such as radius and theta (angle).

For three-dimensional vectors, such as velocity in space, there are three components, in various coordinate systems.

umka21 [38]

Answer:

a) a = 1,865 m / s²  and  b)  t = 8.1 s

Explanation:

a) Let's use Newton's second law to find acceleration, we can work the equation in scalar form because displacement and force have the same direction

         F = m .a

         a = F / m

         a = 8.02 10² /4.3 10²

         a = 1,865 m / s²

b) We use kinematic relationships in one dimension

        vf = vo + at

        vf = 0 + a t

         t = vf / a

          t = 15.1 / 1.865

          t = 8.1 s

The Skeleton does a surprising number of things. What are the three main Ones? lol, it's due today at 12:59 pm I need help.
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Support

Posture

Protection

Explanation:

Support – the skeleton keeps the body upright and provides a framework for muscle and tissue attachment.

Posture – the skeleton gives the correct shape to our body.

Protection – the bones of the skeleton protect the internal organs and reduce the risk of injury on impact.
