TEA [102]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

3A. This phenomenon can be seen in the discrete emission of the molecules.

3B. The emotion of the atoms is observed, from states high in energy to a state of minimum energy that is stable indefinitely.

3C. When an electron beam passes through an inhomogeneous magnetic field, it is divided into only two beams

3D. This is due to the stimulated emission

3E. The penetration of a potential barrier is observed in the radioactive emission of heavy atoms, where an alpha particle (Helium nucleus)

Explanation:

This problem asks for some experimental explanations of various quantum phenomena.

3A. This phenomenon can be seen in the discrete emission of the molecules.

In the classical explanation all states or energies are allowed, therefore when emitting energy (photons) there should be a continuum, this is not observed

In the correct quantum explanation only some states are allowed, therefore the emission must be discrete, which is observed in the emission or absorption of molecules and atoms

3B. The emotion of the atoms is observed, from states high in energy to a state of minimum energy that is stable indefinitely.

The incorrect classical explanation that if the minimum energy was zero the electrons cannot rotate around the nuclei and the atom collapses, this does not happen

3C. When an electron beam passes through an inhomogeneous magnetic field, it is divided into only two beams, which is evidence of the existence of two discrete states that we call spin, remember that a free electron beam has zero angular momentum.

3D. This is due to the stimulated emission that occurs when a photon passes through the emission zone, causing the atoms to have transitions and these emitted photons have the same initial photon location, the laser beam all photons are in phase and therefore it is coherent .

This is widely used for holographic and interference work

3E. The penetration of a potential barrier is observed in the radioactive emission of heavy atoms, where an alpha particle (Helium nucleus) leaves the atomic nucleus penetrating the barrier since its energy is lower than the nuclear barrier potential.

A box has a momentum of
Kipish [7]

Answer:

67.9 kg*m/s

Explanation:

Pi = 38 kgm/s

F = 88.3N and ∆t = 0.338s

Final momentum Pf = Pi + F∆t = 38 + (88.3)(0.338) = 38 + 29.8454

=) Pf = 67.8454 kgm/s = 67.85kg*m/s

Your answer is 67.9kg*m/s with three significant figures

hope this helps your troubles!

Which of the following statements is TRUE in regards to Signal #2?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

2) Signal #2 is a digital signal that transmits signals in segments/intervals.

Explanation:

Signals are form of information propagating from the source to a display unit for appropriate interpretation. It can be either in a digital or analogue form.

A digital signal is a definite signal which is discrete in time and amplitude. It is mostly in the form of codes obtained from set of values. Graphically it transmits in the form of 1 and 0, showing a point of maximum amplitude (1) and minimum amplitude (0).

Analog signal is continuous signal describing the variation of two variables with respect to time.

Answer:

Alfred Wegener

Explanation: Continental drift was a theory that explained how continents shift position on Earth's surface. Set forth in 1912 by Alfred Wegener, a geophysicist and meteorologist, continental drift also explained why look-alike animal and plant fossils, and similar rock formations, are found on different continents. Though most of Wegener's observations about fossils and rocks were correct, he was outlandishly wrong on a couple of key points. For instance, Wegener thought the continents might have plowed through the ocean crust like icebreakers smashing through ice.
