Explain the Construction of the mercury barometer ​

Physics
1 answer:
boyakko [2]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The basic construction, unchanged since Torricelli's experiment in 1643, is a glass tube about three feet long, closed at one end, filled with mercury, and inverted with the open end immersed in a cistern of mercury.

To make a bounce pass, a player throws a 0.60-kg basketball toward the floor. The ball hits the floor with a speed of 5.4 m/s at
artcher [175]

Answer:

2.74 N-s

Explanation:

m = mass of the basketball thrown towards the floor = 0.60 kg

v₀ = initial speed of the ball before hitting the floor = 5.4 m/s

θ = angle made by the direction of motion of the ball with the vertical before and after the collision = 65°

I = Impulse delivered to it by the floor

Impulse delivered to the ball by the floor is given as

I = 2 m v₀ Cosθ

Inserting the values

I = 2 (0.60) (5.4) Cos65

I = 2.74 N-s

In the Zeeman effect, the energy levels of hydrogen are split by a magnetic field. Each state with a different value of mlml has
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

the Zeeman effect without spin is three lines

Explanation:

The Zeeman effect is the result of the interaction of the magnetic field with the orbital angular momentum of the electrons, if we do not take the spin into account it is called the Normal Zeeman effect.

Therefore we only take into account the orbital moments (m_l) of the transition, from the selection rules of the refreshed harmonics, only the transition with

             \Delta m_l = 0, ± 1

            ΔE \DeltaE = \mu_B \ \Delta  m_l \ B

Let's analyze for the case of the Hydrogen atom

For a transition between levels n = 1 and n = 2 the values ​​of m_l are n_f = 1 m_l = 0 and for n₀ = 2  m_l = 0, 1

so we only have two lines.

For transition n_f = 2 and n₀ = 3

n_f = 2    m_l = 0, 1

n₀ = 3      m_l = -1, 0, 1

There are only two lines plus the central line, so there are three spectral lines

for n_f = 3 and n_o = 4

n_f = 3   ml = -1, 0, 1

n₀= 4      ml = -2, -1, 0, 1, 2

Only transitions with  Δm_l = ±1 are allowed, so there are only two transitions plus the central transition (Δm_l = 0), so there are only 3 spectral lines.

In summary, due to the selection rule of spherical harmonics, the greatest number of lines in the Zeeman effect without spin is three lines.

3 A jet plane accelerated along a straight runway from rest to a
aleksklad [387]

Explanation:

v=140 m/s

t=50s

u=0

change of velocity = v-u

140-0=140 m/s

for acceleration:

from Newton's first law of motion:

v=u+at

140=0+a50

50a=140

a=140/50

a=2.8 m/s²
