A meter stick is found to balance at the 49.7-cm mark when placed on a fulcrum. When a 65.5-gram mass is attached at the 21.0-cm
1 answer:
Answer:
113.53 g
Explanation:
Please see attached photo for explanation.
In the attached photo, M is the mass of the meter stick.
The value of M can be obtained as shown below:
Clockwise moment = M × 10.5
Anticlockwise moment = 65.5 × 18.2
Anticlockwise moment = Clockwise moment
65.5 × 18.2 = M × 10.5
1192.1 = M × 10.5
Divide both side by 10.5
M = 1192.1 / 10.5
M = 113.53 g
Thus, the mass of the meter stick is 113.53 g

First we find the energy level with the following formula, where a is the energy level, n1 is the final energy level, n2 is the starting energy level and r is Rydberg's constant in Joules
We insert the values
The wavelength is found with this formula, where h is Planck's constant and c is the speed of light
Finally we insert the values
Which is the same as 93.8 nm
