Increase in temperature of water = 0.53 °C
Explanation:
Change in mechanical energy = Potential energy
Potential energy = mgh
Mass, m = Mass of 1 L water = 1 kg
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²
Height, h = 225 m
Potential energy = 1 x 9.81 x 225 = 2207.25 J
Because of this 2207.25 J water gets heated.
Heat energy, E = mcΔT
Mass, m = Mass of 1 L water = 1 kg
Specific heat of water, c = 4200 J/kg/C
Energy, E = 2207.25 J
Change in temperature, ΔT = ?
Substituting
2207.25 = 1 x 4200 x ΔT
ΔT = 0.53 °C
Increase in temperature of water = 0.53 °C

If we were to illuminate them only with light from the Balmer transition considered above, would the solar panels produce a curr
Ugo [173]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The reason why no current is produced are basically that, the wavelengths of light in the Balmer transition are reflected, not absorbed in solar panels, hence no current is produced.

The Balmer series consists of lines in the visible spectrum. It corresponds to emission of a photon of light when electrons descend from higher energy levels to the n=2 level in the hydrogen spectrum. The various wavelengths in the Balmer series can be separated by a prism since they are all in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

In solar panels, light corresponding to the wavelengths in the Balmer series is merely reflected by the panel and not absorbed. Since light is not absorbed, no current can be produced when the panel is irradiated with light corresponding to the wavelengths in the Balmer series.

A charged sphere with 1 × 10 8 units of negative charge is brought near a neutral metal rod. The half of the rod closer to the s
jeyben [28]

Answer:

-4*10⁴ units.

Explanation:

As the metal rod was initially neutral (which means that it has the same quantity of positive and negative charges), after being close to the charged sphere, as charge must be conserved, the total charge of the metal rod must  still remain to be zero.

So, if due to the influence of the negative charge in the sphere, the half of the road closer to the sphere has a surplus charge of +4*10⁴ units, the charge on the half of the rod farther from the sphere must be the same in magnitude but of the opposite sign, i.e., -4*10⁴ units.
