Answer:

To calibrate a thermometer is to mark a thermometer so that you can use it to measure temperature accurately. A fixed point is a standard degree of hotness or coldness such as the melting point of ice or boiling point of water.

An object with a mass of 5kg accelerates at 2m/s2. How much force in Newtons(N) is needed to cause this to happen??

Reptile [31]

Answer: The formula of Newtons second law of motion is F=MA so therefore it would be written like this Force = Mass X Acceleration

F = 5 x 2

F = 10 N

If youre walking from point a to b, the magnitude of your displacement will always be equal or less than or greater than your di

xenn [34]

The magnitude of your displacement can be equal to the distance you covered, or it can be less than the distance you covered. But it can never be greater than the distance you covered.

This is because displacement is a straight line, whereas distance can be a straight line, a squiggly line, a zig-zag line, a line with loops in it, a line with a bunch of back-and-forths in it, or any other kind of line.

The straight line is always the shortest path between two points.

The brakes of a 125 kg sled are applied while it is moving at 8.1 m/s, which exerts a force of 261 N to slow the sled down. How

sammy [17]

Answer:

15.7 m

Explanation:

m = mass of the sled = 125 kg

v₀ = initial speed of the sled = 8.1 m/s

v = final speed of sled = 0 m/s

F = force applied by the brakes in opposite direction of motion = 261

d = stopping distance for the sled

Using work-change in kinetic energy theorem

- F d = (0.5) m (v² - v₀²)

- (261) d = (0.5) (125) (0² - 8.1²)

d = 15.7 m

Answer:

tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 22.78 nm

Explanation:

Bohr's model for the hydrogen atom has been used by other atoms with a single electric charge by changing the number of charges by the charge of the new atom (atomic number)

$E_{n}$ = k e² / 2a₀ (1 /n²)

ao = h'² / k m e² h' = h/2πi

For another atom with a single electron in the last layer

a₀ ’= h’² / k m (Ze)²

a₀ ’= a₀ / Z²

Therefore, when replacing in the equation

$E_{n}$ = - Z² Eo/n²

E₀ = 13,606 eV

The transition occurs when the electron stops from one level to another

$E_{n}$ - $E_{m}$ = Z² E₀ (1 / n² - 1 / m²) = Z² ΔE

Let's relate this expression to the wavelength

c = λ f

E = h f

E = h c /λ

h c / λ = Z² ΔE

λ = 1 / Z² (hc / ΔE)

λ = 1 / Z² λ_hydrogen

Let's apply this last equation to our case

Lithium Z = 3

$E_{n}$ = - 9 Eo / n²

40.5 10-9 = 1/9 λ_hydrogen

Beryllium Z = 4

λ = 1/16 λ_hydrogen

Let's write our two equations is and solve

40.5 10-9 = 1/9 λ_hydrogen

tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 1/ 16 λ_hydrogen

40.5 10⁻⁹ = 1/9 (16 $\lambda_{Be}$ )

tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 40.5 9/16

tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 22.78 nm
