Answer:

Explanation:
We need to find the energy for an electron to jump from n = 1 to n = 4.
The energy in transition from 1 state to another is given by :

The difference in energy for n = 1 to n = 4 is:

So, the required energy is equal to
.
Answer:
0.7 hours
Explanation:
From the way back, we can calculate the distance between Irina's work and Irina's home. In fact, we know that the car takes 0.4 hourse traveling at 27 mph, so the distance covered should be

When Irina rides to work with her bike, she travels at a speed of 16 mph. So we can find the time she takes by dividing the total distance (10.8 miles) by her speed:

Answer:
It corresponds to a distance of 100 parsecs away from Earth.
Explanation:
The angle due to the change in position of a nearby object against the background stars it is known as parallax.
It is defined in a analytic way as it follows:

Where d is the distance to the star.
(1)
Equation (1) can be rewritten in terms of d:
(2)
Equation (2) represents the distance in a unit known as parsec (pc).
The parallax angle can be used to find out the distance by means of triangulation. Making a triangle between the nearby star, the Sun and the Earth (as is shown in the image below), knowing that the distance between the Earth and the Sun (150000000 Km), is defined as 1 astronomical unit (1AU).
For the case of (
):


Hence, it corresponds to a distance of 100 parsecs away from Earth.
<em>Summary:</em>
Notice how a small parallax angle means that the object is farther away.
Key terms:
Parsec: Parallax of arc second
