What minimum speed must an electron have to excite the 492-nm-wavelength blue emission line in the hg spectrum?
mezya [45]
The energy required by the excitation of the line is:
ΔE = hν = hc / λ
where:
ΔE = energy difference
h = Planck constant 
ν = line frequency
c = speed of light
λ = line wavelength

The energy difference must be supplied by the electron, supposing it transfers all its kinetic energy to excite the line:
\Delta E =  \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

Therefore, 
\frac{1}{2} m v^{2} =  \frac{hc}{\lambda}

And solving for v we get:
v =  \sqrt{ \frac{2hc}{m\lambda} }

Plugging in numbers (after trasforing into the correct SI units of measurement):
v = \sqrt{ \frac{(2)(6.6 \cdot  10^{-34})(3 \cdot  10^{8})  }{(9.11 \cdot  10^{-31})(4.92 \cdot  10^{-7}) } }
=9.4 · 10⁵ m/s

Hence, the electron must have a speed of 9.4 · 10<span>⁵ m/s in order to excite the <span>492nm</span> line.</span>

2.<br> The inertia of an object depends on its
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Inertia of an object depends on the <em>mass </em>of the object.

Explanation:

Inertia is the property that is possessed by a matter( anything that has weight and occupies space) that enables it to be at rest or in a state of continuous uniform motion.

<em>The inertial of a body is the resistance that is present in the body, that forces acting on the body have to overcome for the body to move or continue moving.</em><em> </em>

The inertia of a body depends on the mass of such a body, which is directly proportional. The mass of an object is the measure of inertia,  the bigger the mass of an object the bigger the inertia.

<em>Therefore the Inertia of an object is largely dependent on the mass of such an object. </em>

Does weight increase decrease or stays constant as altitude increases
mojhsa [17]

Answer: It stays the same, it is constant no matter what.

Explanation: Just because it may go faster/slower due to altitude change, it does not affect the weight.

The focal length of david's lens is 60 cm. if rebecca stands in front of david at a distance of do and david perceives the posit
Makovka662 [10]

if rebecca stands in front of david at a distance of do and david perceives the position of rebecca at di, di will be +84 cm

<h3>What is focal length ?</h3>

How strongly light converges or diverges depends on an optical system's focal length, which is the inverse of optical power. A system with a positive focus length is said to converge light, whereas one with a negative focal length is said to diverge light.

focal length = +60 cm

magnification m = -0.40

focal length being positive an magnification negative.

given lens is a convex lens.

for a lens

m = di/do and 1/f = (1/di) - (1/do)di

= -0.4do1/f = (1/-0.4do) - 1/do do

= -210 cmdi = -0.4 * -210

di = +84 cm
