Answer:

The value we are given in the question is 1.24 * 10^7. This form of writing number is called scientific notation. The standard notation is the normal, regular way of writing numbers. Scientific notation and standard notations are interchangeable.

1.24 * 10^7 written in standard notation will be = 1.24 * 10000000 = 12400000.

Thus, the mass of the meteoroid was 12400000 kg.

A machine has an efficiency of 80% how much work must be done on the machine so to make it do 50000 J of outfit work

katrin [286]

With efficiency of 80%, the machine outputs 50000 J. The input to the machine should represent 100%.

If
80% --- 50000 J
100% --- ?? J

Solution:
Input work = (100/80)*500000 J = 62500 J

If we decrease the size of a quantum dot that contains an electron, what happens to the energy levels?

Law Incorporation [45]

We will solve this problem using the direct concept related to band gap energy, that is, a band gap is the distance between the valence band of electrons and the conduction band, i. e, the energy range in a solid where no electron states (Electronic state) can exist Mathematically can be described as,

$E_n = \frac{h^2n^2}{8mcR^2}$

Where,

h = Planck's constant

n = Energy level

mc = Effective mass of the point charge

R = Size of the particle

As you can see the energy is inversely proportional to the size of the particle:

$E_n \propto \frac{1}{R^2}$

Therefore if the size is decreased, the amount of energy is increased.
