Answer:

The process of heat conduction depends on four basic factors: the temperature gradient, the cross section of the materials involved, their path length, and the properties of those materials.

A 7750 kg space probe, moving nose-first toward Jupiter at 179 m/s relative to the Sun, fires its rocket engine, ejecting 72.0 k

Reika [66]

Answer:

179.47m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses

u1 and u2 are the initial velocities

v is the final velocity

Substitute

7750(179)+72(230) = (7750+72)v

1,387,250+16560 = 7822v

1,403,810 = 7822v

v = 1,403,810/7822

v= 179.47m/s

Hence the final velocity of the probe is 179.47m/s

Show that the entire Paschen series is in the infrared part of the spectrum. To do this, you only need to calculate the shortest

mr_godi [17]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the shortest wavelength in the series is shown below:-

$\frac{1}{\lambda} = R(\frac{1}{n_f^2} - \frac{1}{n_i^2} )$

Where

$\lambda$ represents wavelength

R represents Rydberg's constant

$n_f$ represents Final energy states

and $n_i$ represents initial energy states

Now Substitute is

$1.097\times 10^7\ m^{-1}\ for\ R, \infty for\ n_i,\ 3 for\ n_i,\\\\\ \frac{1}{\lambda} = R(\frac{1}{n_f^2} - \frac{1}{n_i^2} )$

now we will put the values into the above formula

$= 1.097\times 10^7 m^{-1}(\frac{1}{3^2} - \frac{1}{\infty^2} )\\\\ = 1.097\times10^7\ m^{-1} (\frac{1}{9} )$

$= 1218888.889 m^{-1}$

Now we will rewrite the answer in the term of $\lambda$

$\lambda = \frac{1}{1218888.889} m\\\\ = 0.82\times 10^{-6} m$

So, the whole Paschen series is in the part of the spectrum.

A charged object is suspended motionless in the air by the gravitational force pulling it down and an electric force pushing it

Savatey [412]

The charge of the object must be $1.11 \times e^{-5} \text { coulomb }$

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Suppose an electric charge can be represented by the symbol Q. This electric charge generates an electric field; Because Q is the source of the electric field, we call this as source charge. The electric field strength of the source charge can be measured with any other charge anywhere in the area. The test charges used to test the field strength.

Its quantity indicated by the symbol q. In the electric field, q exerts an electric, either attractive or repulsive force. As usual, this force is indicated by the symbol F. The electric field’s magnitude is simply defined as the force per charge (q) on Q.

$Electric field, E=\frac{\text { Force }(F)}{q}$
