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.

Two planets P1 and P2 orbit around a star S in circular orbits with speeds v1 = 40.2 km/s, and v2 = 56.0 km/s respectively. If t
Readme [11.4K]

Answer: 3.66(10)^{33}kg

Explanation:

We are told both planets describe a circular orbit around the star S. So, let's approach this problem begining with the angular velocity \omega of the planet P1 with a period T=750years=2.36(10)^{10}s:

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{V_{1}}{R} (1)

Where:

V_{1}=40.2km/s=40200m/s is the velocity of planet P1

R is the radius of the orbit of planet P1

Finding R:

R=\frac{V_{1}}{2\pi}T (2)

R=\frac{40200m/s}{2\pi}2.36(10)^{10}s (3)

R=1.5132(10)^{14}m (4)

On the other hand, we know the gravitational force F between the star S with mass M and the planet P1 with mass m is:

F=G\frac{Mm}{R^{2}} (5)

Where G is the Gravitational Constant and its value is 6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}

In addition, the centripetal force F_{c} exerted on the planet is:

F_{c}=\frac{m{V_{1}}^{2}}{R^{2}} (6)

Assuming this system is in equilibrium:

F=F_{c} (7)

Substituting (5) and (6) in (7):

G\frac{Mm}{R^{2}}=\frac{m{V_{1}}^{2}}{R^{2}} (8)

Finding M:

M=\frac{V^{2}R}{G} (9)

M=\frac{(40200m/s)^{2}(1.5132(10)^{14}m)}{6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}} (10)

Finally:

M=3.66(10)^{33}kg (11) This is the mass of the star S

A jewellery shop owner has two identical clear gemstones but cannot remember which one is diamond and which one is rutile. Rutil
pantera1 [17]

We know

\boxed{\sf n_{21}=\dfrac{C}{V}}

How he find:-

The owner will measure speed of light through the index(Diamond or rutile).Then using calculations he fill find which is the velocity of diamond or rutile

<h3> For diamond</h3>

\\ \sf\longmapsto n_D=\dfrac{C}{V_D}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 2.4=\dfrac{3\times 10^8ms^{-1}}{V_D}

\\ \sf\longmapsto V_D=\dfrac{3\times 10^8ms^{-1}}{2.4}

\\ \sf\longmapsto V_D=1.25\times 10^8ms^{-1}

\\ \sf\longmapsto V_D=125\times 10^6ms^{-1}

<h3>For rutile</h3>

\\ \sf\longmapsto n_R=\dfrac{C}{V_R}

\\ \sf\longmapsto V_R=\dfrac{C}{n_R}

\\ \sf\longmapsto V_R=\dfrac{3\times 10^8ms^{-1}}{2.9}

\\ \sf\longmapsto V_R=1.03\times 10^8

\\ \sf\longmapsto V_R=103\times 10^6ms^{-1}
