Answer:

It pushes food through the GI tract. The inside of GI tract is lined with mucous membranes. Mucous membranes are moist tissues that can secrete and absorb substances. The ability to secrete and absorb substances is necessary for the functions of the digestive system.

By calculating its wavelength (in nm), show that the second line in the Lyman series is UV radiation.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

 λ = 102.78  nm

This radiation is in the UV range,

Explanation:

Bohr's atomic model for the hydrogen atom states that the energy is

           E = - 13.606 / n²

where 13.606 eV   is the ground state energy and n is an integer

an atom transition is the jump of an electron from an initial state to a final state of lesser emergy

            ΔE = 13.606 (1 / n_{f}^{2} - 1 / n_{i}^{2})

the so-called Lyman series occurs when the final state nf = 1, so the second line occurs when ni = 3, let's calculate the energy of the emitted photon

            DE = 13.606 (1/1 - 1/3²)

            DE = 12.094 eV

let's reduce the energy to the SI system

            DE = 12.094 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1 ev) = 10.35 10⁻¹⁹ J

let's find the wavelength is this energy, let's use Planck's equation to find the frequency

            E = h f

             f = E / h

            f = 19.35 10⁻¹⁹ / 6.63 10⁻³⁴

            f = 2.9186 10¹⁵ Hz

now we can look up the wavelength

           c = λ f

           λ = c / f

           λ = 3 10⁸ / 2.9186 10¹⁵

           λ = 1.0278  10⁻⁷ m

let's reduce to nm

            λ = 102.78  nm

This radiation is in the UV range, which occurs for wavelengths less than 400 nm.

Ben walks 500 meters from his house to the corner store. He then walks back toward his house but stops to talk to a neighbor whe
spin [16.1K]
Average velocity =

      (displacement) / (time for the displacement)
and
      (direction of the displacement) .

Displacement =

      (distance from the start-point to the end-point)
and
      (direction from the start-point to the end-point)   .

When Ben is 200 meters from the corner store,
he is (500 - 200) = 300 meters from his house.

His displacement is

         300 meters in the direction
                             from his house to the neighbor .


His average velocity is

         (300/910) =  0.33 meters per second, in the
                               direction from his house to the neighbor .
