Answer:

The atomic mass of an element is affected by the distribution of its isotopes because each isotope of an element has a different number of neutrons in the nuclei of its atoms.

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

\lambda=25.6nm

Explanation:

The Rydberg formula can be extended for use with any hydrogen-like chemical elements, that is to say with only one electron being affected by effective nuclear charge. So, in this case, we can calculate the wavelenghts of the emitted photons using this formula:

\frac{1}{\lambda}=RZ^2(\frac{1}{n_1^2}-\frac{1}{n_2^2})

Where R is the Rydberg constant of the element, Z its atomic number, n_1 is the lower energy level and n_2 the upper energy level of the  electron transition. Recall that the ground state is denoted as n=1.

\frac{1}{\lambda}=1.1*10^7m^{-1}(2)2^2(\frac{1}{1^2}-\frac{1}{3^2})\\\frac{1}{\lambda}=3.91*10^7m^{-1}\\\lambda=2.56*10^{-8}m=25.6nm

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

340

Explanation:

Because you are moving at 5 m/s^2 for 8 seconds, you need to do some arithmetic to get the distance covered in the beginning. TO do this, you do 5 + 5*2 + 5*3 + 5*4 + 5*5 + 5*6 + 5*7 + 5*8, and once you have passed eight seconds, you need 4 more seconds with constant velocity, or 4(5*8). Your final equation would be 5+10+15+20+25+30+35+40+40+40+40+40. Hope this helps!

A straight wire 20 cm long, carrying a current of 4 A, is in a uniform magnetic field of 0.6 T. What is the force on the wire wh
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Magnetic force, F = 0.24 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Current flowing in the wire, I = 4 A

Length of the wire, L = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Magnetic field, B = 0.6 T

Angle between force and the magnetic field, θ = 30°. The magnetic force is given by :

F=ILB\ sin\theta

F=4\ A\times 0.2\ m\times 0.6\ T\ sin(30)

F = 0.24 N

So, the force on the wire at an angle of 30° with respect to the field is 0.24 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
