Why do different atoms or molecules preferentially absorb different wavelengths of light?

Physics
1 answer:
Paladinen [302]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The electrons in an atom can only occupy certain allowed energy levels. ... Only certain energy levels are allowed, so only certain transitions are possible and hence specific wavelengths are emitted when an electron drops to a lower energy level.

- The school zone in front of your school has a posted speed limit of 25 mi/h, which is about 11 m/s. Let's
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

s = 38.7 m

Explanation:

First we calculate the distance covered during uniform motion of reaction time.

s₁ = vt

where,

s₁ = distance covered during uniform motion = ?

v = uniform speed = 11 m/s

t = time = 2.3 s

Therefore,

s₁ = (11 m/s)(2.3 s)

s₁ = 25.3 m

Now, we calculate the distance covered during decelerated motion:

2as₂ = Vf² - Vi²

where,

a = deceleration = -4.5 m/s²

s₂ = distance covered during decelerated motion = ?

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s

Vi = Initial Velocity = 11 m/s

Therefore,

2(-4.5 m/s²)s₂ = (0 m/s)² - (11 m/s)²

s₂ = (-121 m²/s²)/(-9 m/s²)

s₂ = 13.4 m

the total distance will be:

s = s₁ + s₂

s = 25.3 m + 13.4 m

<u>s = 38.7 m</u>
