Answer:

angular speed ω = 2PI / T rad/sec

ω^2*r = M*G/r^2

r = ³√ M*G/ω^2 = ³√6.42*10^23*6.67*10^-11*88640^2/39.5 = 2.04*10^7 m

In a 49 s interval, 595 hailstones strike a glass window of an area of 0.954 m at an angle of 25° to the window surface. Each ha

eduard

Average force on the window: 0.32 N

Explanation:

The average force exerted on the window is given by Newton's second law

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta p$ is the net change in momentum of the hailstones in a time interval of $\Delta t$

In order to find the change in momentum, we have to consider only the component of the hailstone's momentum perpendicular to the window, therefore:

$p_i =m u sin \theta$ is the initial momentum of one hailstone, with

m = 7 g = 0.007 kg is the mass

$u=4.5 m/s$ is the initial speed

$\theta=25^{\circ}$ is the angle with the window

The final momentum is

$p_f = mv sin \theta$

where

v = 4.5 m/s is the final speed (the collision is elastic so the speed is equal, while the direction changes)

$\theta=-25^{\circ}$ (after the rebound, the direction has changed)

So the change in momentum of 1 hailstone is

$\Delta p = mv sin(-25^{\circ})-mu sin(25^{\circ})=-2mu sin(25^{\circ})=-0.0266 kg m/s$

We are interested only in the magnitude, so

$\Delta p = 0.0266 kg m/s$

There are 595 hailstones hitting the window in 49 s, so the total change in momentum is

$\Delta p = 595\cdot 0.0266 = 15.8 kg m/s$

And therefore, the average force on the window is

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=\frac{15.8}{49}=0.32 N$

Answer:

It conserves both energy and momentum in the collision at the same time. By design, when the balls collide the strings that hold them up are vertical (assuming balls are only swung from one side).

A hydrogen atom in the n=7 state decays to the n=4 state. what is the wavelength of the photon that the hydrogen atom emits? use

frez [133]

A hydrogen atom in the n=7 state decays to the n=4 state. The wavelength of the photon that the hydrogen atom emits is 4592.59nm.

The Energy of photon is the energy possessed by a photon when it moves from a high energy level to a low energy level. It emits a photon of a certain wavelength. The following relation can be used to find out the relation between the energy levels and the energy possessed:

E = 13.6 × Z² (1/n₂² - 1/n₁²) eV

where, n₁ is the initial energy level i.e. n₁ =7

n₂ is the higher energy level i.e. n₂ = 4

E is the energy possessed

Z is the atomic number, Z = 1 for H-atom

Subsituting in above equation,

E = 13.6 (1/16 - 1/49) eV

E = 0.27 eV

We know that,

E = hc / λ

where, h is Planck constant

c is speed of light
