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.

16. A 7500 kg 18-wheeler traveling at 20 m/s exits onto the runaway truck ramp on the freeway.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

<em>765,000 Joule</em>

Explanation:

<u>Principle of Conservation of Energy </u>

The total energy in an isolated system cannot be created or destroyed, but transformed. Moving objects have kinetic energy, objects placed in some height above a reference level have gravitational potential energy. When they change their motion variables, one energy converts into the other, but if the numbers don't fit, we know there was some other type of energy acting into the system. The most common reason for energy 'losses' is the thermal energy, produced when objects move in rough surfaces or take friction from the air.

The 7,500 kg truck is originally traveling at 20 m/s to a certain height we'll set to 0. Thus, its total energy is  

\displaystyle E_1=\frac{mv^2}{2}

\displaystyle E_1=\frac{7,500\ 20^2}{2}

E_1=1,500,000\ Joule

When it comes to a stop, its speed is 0 and its height is 10 m higher than before. It means all the kinetic energy was transformed into other types of energy. The gravitational potential energy is

U=mgh=(7,500)(9.8)(10)=735,000\ Joule

Since this number is not equal to the previous value of the energy, the difference is due to thermal energy dissipated by friction

E_t=1,500,000\ Joule-735,000\ Joule=765,000\ Joule

The charged particles in the beams that Thomson studied came from atoms. As these particles moved away from their original atoms
aalyn [17]

The question to the above information is;

What is the best use of an atomic model to explain the charge of the particles in Thomson's beams?

Answer;

An atom's smaller negative particles are at a distance from the central positive particles, so the negative particles are easier to remove.

Explanation;

-Atoms are comprised of a nucleus consisting of protons (red) and neutrons (blue). The number of orbiting electrons is the same as the number of protons and is termed the "atomic number" of the element.

J.J. Thomson discovered the electron. Atoms are neutral overall, therefore in Thomson’s ‘plum pudding model’:

  • atoms are spheres of positive charge
  • electrons are dotted around inside

Init. A
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

v = 1/3 m / s = 0.333 m / s

in the direction of the truck

Explanation:

The average speed is defined by the variation of the position between the time spent

           v = Δx / Δt

since the position is a vector we must add using vectors, we will assume that the displacement to the right is positive, the total displacement is

           Δx = 20 - 15 +20

           Δx = 25 m

therefore we calculate

         v = 25/75

         v = 1/3 m / s = 0.333 m / s

in the direction of the truck

A toy rocket launcher can project a toy rocket at a speed as high as 35.0 m/s.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

(a) 62.5 m

(b) 7.14 s

Explanation:

initial speed, u = 35 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s^2

(a) Let the rocket raises upto height h and at maximum height the speed is zero.

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

0^{2}=35^{2}- 2 \times 9.8 \times h

h = 62.5 m

Thus, the rocket goes upto a height of 62.5 m.

(b) Let the rocket takes time t to reach to maximum height.

By use of first equation of motion

v = u + at

0 = 35 - 9.8 t

t = 3.57 s

The total time spent by the rocket in air = 2 t = 2 x 3.57 = 7.14 second.
