When a low-pressure gas of hydrogen atoms is placed in a tube and a large voltage is applied to the end of the tube, the atoms w

ill emit electromagnetic radiation and visible light can be observed. If this light passes through a diffraction grating, the resulting spectrum appears as a pattern of four isolated, sharp parallel lines, called spectral lines. Each spectral line corresponds to one specific wavelength that is present in the light emitted by the source. Such a discrete spectrum is referred to as a line spectrum. By the early 19th century, it was found that discrete spectra were produced by every chemical element in its gaseous state. Even though these spectra were found to share the common feature of appearing as a set of isolated lines, it was observed that each element produces its own unique pattern of lines. This indicated that the light emitted by each element contains a specific set of wavelengths that is characteristic of that element.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The value of n is n =7

Explanation:

    From the question we are told that

          The value of m = 2

            For every value of m, n = m+ 1, m+2,m+3,....

           The modified version of  Balmer's formula is \frac{1}{\lambda}  = R [\frac{1}{m^2} - \frac{1}{n^2}  ]

             The Rydberg constant has a value of R = 1.097 *10^{7} m^{-1}

The objective of this solution is to obtain the value of n for which the wavelength of the Balmer series line is smaller than 400nm

   

For m = 2 and n =3

    The wavelength is

                          \frac{1}{\lambda } = (1.097 * 10^7)[\frac{1}{2^2} - \frac{1}{3^2}  ]

                          \lambda = \frac{1}{1523611.1112}

                             \lambda = 656nm

For m = 2 and n = 4

    The wavelength is

                          \frac{1}{\lambda } = (1.097 * 10^7)[\frac{1}{2^2} - \frac{1}{4^2}  ]

                          \lambda = \frac{1}{2056875}

                             \lambda = 486nm

For m = 2 and n = 5

    The wavelength is

                          \frac{1}{\lambda } = (1.097 * 10^7)[\frac{1}{2^2} - \frac{1}{5^2}  ]

                          \lambda = \frac{1}{2303700}

                             \lambda = 434nm

For m = 2 and n = 6

    The wavelength is

                          \frac{1}{\lambda } = (1.097 * 10^7)[\frac{1}{2^2} - \frac{1}{6^2}  ]

                          \lambda = \frac{1}{2422222}

                             \lambda = 410nm

For m = 2 and n = 7

    The wavelength is

                          \frac{1}{\lambda } = (1.097 * 10^7)[\frac{1}{2^2} - \frac{1}{7^2}  ]

                          \lambda = \frac{1}{2518622}

                             \lambda = 397nm

So the value of n is  7

A body of mass 5 kg has a velocity<br><br><br>20 MS <br><br>-1 its Momentum is​
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Momentum is 100 kg.m/s

Explanation:

given

mass, m = 5 kg

velocity, v = 20 m/s

To find : momentum (P)

We know that momentum is given by equation:

p = mv

  = 5 kg x 20 m/s

  = 100 kg.m/s
