Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

a)  R = ρ₀ L /π(r_b² - R_a²) , b)  ρ₀ = V / I    π (r_b² - R_a²) / L

Explanation:

a) The resistance of a material is given by

          R = ρ l / A

where ρ is the resistivity, l is the length and A is the area

the length is l = L and the resistivity is ρ = ρ₀

the area is the area of ​​the cylindrical shell

           A = π r_b² - π r_a²

           A = π (r_b² - r_a²)

we substitute

         R = ρ₀ L /π(r_b² - R_a²)

b) The potential difference is related to current and resistance by ohm's law

         V = i R

         

we subsist the expression of resistance

          V = I ρ₀ L /π (r_b² - R_a²)

           ρ₀ = V / I    π (r_b² - R_a²) / L

Calculate the change in the energy of an electron that moves from the n = 3 level to the n = 2 level. What type of light is emit
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Red light

Explanation:

The energy emitted during an electron transition in an atom of hydrogen is given by

E=E_0 (\frac{1}{n_2^2}-\frac{1}{n_1^2})

where

E_0 = 13.6 eV is the energy of the lowest level

n1 and n2 are the numbers corresponding to the two levels

Here we have

n1 = 3

n2 = 2

So the energy of the emitted photon is

E=(13.6) (\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2})=1.9 eV

Converting into Joules,

E=(1.9 eV)(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV)=3.0\cdot 10^{-19} J

And now we can find the wavelength of the emitted photon by using the equation

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where h is the Planck constant and c is the speed of light. Solving for \lambda,

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34})(3\cdot 10^8)}{3.0\cdot 10^{-19}}=6.63\cdot 10^{-7} m = 663 nm

And this wavelength corresponds to red light.

A shuttle on Earth has a mass of 4.5 E 5 kg. Compare its weight on Earth to its weight while in orbit at a height of 6.3 E 5 met
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

83%

Explanation:

On the surface, the weight is:

W = GMm / R²

where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the Earth, m is the mass of the shuttle, and R is the radius of the Earth.

In orbit, the weight is:

w = GMm / (R+h)²

where h is the height of the shuttle above the surface of the Earth.

The ratio is:

w/W = R² / (R+h)²

w/W = (R / (R+h))²

Given that R = 6.4×10⁶ m and h = 6.3×10⁵ m:

w/W = (6.4×10⁶ / 7.03×10⁶)²

w/W = 0.83

The shuttle in orbit retains 83% of its weight on Earth.
