A girl is shown at position A on a swing when the seat is directly below the support bar. The seat is then at height A as shown

by a grey arrow and grey line. When she swings up and to the right to position B when the seat is at height B as shown by a grey arrow and grey line. At which position, A or B, is the potential energy of the swing the greatest? As the swing moves from point B to point A, which form of energy is increasing, kinetic or potential?

Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>1. The potential energy of the swing is the greatest at the position B.</u>

  • <u>2. As the swing moves from point B to point A, the kinetic energy is increasing.</u>

Explanation:

Even though the syntax of the text is not completely clear, likely because it accompanies a drawing that is not included, it results clear that the posittion A is where the seat is at the lowest position, and the position B is upper.

The gravitational <em>potential energy </em>is directly proportional to the height of the objects with respect to some reference altitude. Thus, when the seat is at the position A the swing has the smallest potential energy and when the seat is at the <em>position B the swing has the greatest potential energy.</em>

Regarding the forms of energy, as the swing moves from point B to point A, it is going downward, gaining kinetic energy (speed) at the expense of the potential energy (losing altitude). When the seat passes by the position A, the kinetic energy is maximum and the potential energy is miminum. Then the seat starts to gain altitude again, losing the kinetic energy and gaining potential energy, up to it gets to the other end,

Which one of the following represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom? (arranged as n, l, m l ,
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The correct option that represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom is;

(b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2.

Explanation:

To solve the question, we note that the available options where the set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom are arranged as n, l, m l , and ms are;

4, 4, 4, 1/2

4, 3, -3, 1/2

4, 3, 0, 0

4, 5, 7, -1/2

4, 4, -5, 1/2

Let us label them as a to as follows

(a) 4, 4, 4, 1/2

(b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2

(c) 4, 3, 0, 0

(d) 4, 5, 7, -1/2

(e) 4, 4, -5, 1/2

Next we note the rules for the assignment and arrangement of quantum numbers are as follows

Number                                   Symbol                Possible values

Principal Quantum Number  .......n........................1, 2, 3, ......n

Angular momentum quantum

number...............................................l.........................0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)

Magnetic Quantum Number........m₁......................-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l  

Spin Quantum Number.................m_s.....................+1/2, -1/2

We are meant to analyze each of the arrangement for acceptability.

Therefore for (a),

we note that the angular momentum quantum number, l =4 , is equal to the principal quantum number n =4 which violates the rule as the maximum value of the angular momentum quantum number is (n-1) where the maximum value of the principal quantum number is n.

Therefore (a) is not acceptable.

(b) Here we note that

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 3 ∈ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = -3 ∈ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = 1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2 represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

(c) Here we have

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 3 ∈ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = 0 ∈ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = 0 ∉ (+1/2, -1/2) → not acceptable

Therefore (c) 4, 3, 0, 0 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

(d) Here we have;

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 5 ∉ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → not acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = 7 ∉ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = -1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (d) 4, 5, 7, -1/2 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

(e) Here we have;

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 4 ∉ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → not acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = -5 ∉ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = 1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (e) 4, 4, -5, 1/2 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

An object that weighs 2.450 N is attached to an ideal massless spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period o
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 24.1 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the object, W = 2.45 N

Time period of oscillation of simple harmonic motion, T = 0.64 s

To find,

Spring constant of the spring.

Solution,

In case of simple harmonic motion, the time period of oscillation is given by :

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

m is the mass of object

m=\dfrac{W}{g}

m=\dfrac{2.45}{9.8}

m = 0.25 kg

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2m}{T^2}

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 0.25}{(0.64)^2}

k = 24.09 N/m

or

k = 24.11 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 24.1 N/m.

A ray of light crosses a boundary between two transparent materials. The medium the ray enters has a larger index of refraction.
Margarita [4]

Answer:

True, True, False, False, False, False.

Explanation:

The refraction index of a material is given by the formula n=c/v, where c is the speed of light in vacuum and v the speed of light in the material. If a ray of light crosses a boundary between two transparent materials and the medium the ray enters has a larger index of refraction it means that in this new medium the speed of light is smaller than on the other one, and then its wavelength is also reduced since f must remain the same (and \lambda=v/f), otherwise there is a discontinuity on number of vibrations per second, which cannot happen. So we know that:

1) The wavelength of the light decreases as it enters into the medium with the greater index of refraction. True.

2) The frequency of the light remains constant as it transitions between materials. True.

3) The speed of the light remains constant as it transitions between materials. False.

4) The speed of the light increases as it enters the medium with the greater index of refraction. False.

5) The frequency of the light decreases as it enters into the medium with the greater index of refraction. False.

6) The wavelength of the light remains constant as it transitions between materials.  False.
