No, that's silly.
You've got your Pfund series where electrons fall down to the 5th level,
your Brackett series where they fall to the 4th level, and your Paschen
series where they fall to the 3rd level. All of those transitions ploop out
photons at Infrared wavelengths.
THEN next you get your Balmer series, where the electrons fall in
to the 2nd level. Most of those are at visible wavelengths, but even
a few of the Balmer transitions are in the Ultraviolet.
And then there's the Lyman series, where electrons fall all the way
down to the #1 level. Those are ALL in the ultraviolet.
for a given type of wave in a given medium a larger frequency means a smaller wavelength
Answer:
Coefficient of friction between the book and floor is 0.582.
Explanation:
Using the velocity formula;
v^2 = 2as
a = v^2/(2s)
a = 1.6^2/(2*0.9)
a = 2.56/1.8
a = 1.42 m/s^2
the force necessary to give the book the acceleration is
F = ma = 3.5*1.42 (m is mass of the book i.e. 3.5 kg)
F = 4.98 N
The difference in the force is the friction force, which is
Ff = 25 - 4.98 = 20 N
Ff = mgμ
where μ is coefficient of friction and g is acceleration due to gravity that is 9.8 m/s^2
μ = Ff/mg
μ = 20/(3.5*9.81)
μ = 0.582
Coefficient of friction between the book and floor is 0.582.
The efficiency of the first Carnot engine is
n1 = 1 - Th/T
The efficiency of the second Carnot engine is
n2 = 1 - T/Tc
The total efficiency of the engines put in series is
n = 1 - Th/Tc
