A quantum system has three energy levels, so three wavelengths appear in its emission spectrum. the shortest observed wavelength

is 278 nm ; light with a 454 nm wavelength is also observed.what is the third wavelength?

The wavelength emitted is indirectly proportional to the difference in the change in the energy level. For the wavelength 278 nm the change in energy level is significantly high. Further change in energy level is indicated by 454nm light but the difference in energy level for this wavelength to be emitted  is not greater than the previous one. There is a possibility that these subsystems have now very low energy which should result in wavelengths ranging from 700 to 900 nm. There is another possibility that there is some metastable subsystems in the system which may cause LASER emission.

melomori [17]

Answer: Anthony will be warmer after the game.

Explanation :

Anthony and Maelynn are watching a football game outside on a sunny day. Anthony is wearing a black shirt and Maelynn is wearing a white shirt. Anthony will be warmer after the game. The black color is a good absorber of radiation and a bad reflector.

The black color absorbs heat until a thermal equilibrium is attained. So, it is advisable to wear cotton clothes in summers not dark colored clothes.

A uniform disk has a mass of 3.7 kg and a radius of 0.40 m. The disk is mounted on frictionless bearings and is used as a turnta
yuradex [85]

Answer:

1.25 kgm²/sec

Explanation:

Disk inertia, Jd =

Jd = 1/2 * 3.7 * 0.40² = 0.2960 kgm²

Disk angular speed =

ωd = 0.1047 * 30 = 3.1416 rad/sec

Hollow cylinder inertia =

Jc = 3.7 * 0.40² = 0.592 kgm²

Initial Kinetic Energy of the disk

Ekd = 1/2 * Jd * ωd²

Ekd = 0.148 * 9.87

Ekd = 1.4607 joule

Ekd = (Jc + 1/2*Jd) * ω²

Final angular speed =

ω² = Ekd/(Jc+1/2*Jd)

ω² = 1.4607/(0.592+0.148)

ω² = 1.4607/0.74

ω² = 1.974

ω = √1.974

ω = 1.405 rad/sec

Final angular momentum =

L = (Jd+Jc) * ω

L = 0.888 * 1.405

L = 1.25 kgm²/sec

solmaris [256]

Answer: the correct answer is 7.8026035971 x 10^(-13) joule

Explanation:

Use Energy Conservation. By ``alpha decay converts'', we mean that the parent particle turns into an alpha particle and daughter particles. Adding the mass of the alpha and daughter radon, we get

m = 4.00260 u + 222.01757 u = 226.02017 u .

The parent had a mass of 226.02540 u, so clearly some mass has gone somewhere. The amount of the missing mass is

Delta m = 226.02540 u - 226.02017 u = 0.00523 u ,

which is equivalent to an energy change of

Delta E = (0.00523 u)*(931.5MeV/1u)

Delta E = 4.87 MeV

Converting  4.87 MeV to Joules

1 joule [J] = 6241506363094 mega-electrón voltio [MeV]

4 mega-electrón voltio = 6.40870932 x 10^(-13) joule

4.87 mega-electrón voltio = 7.8026035971 x 10^(-13) joule

A system contains a perfectly elastic spring, with an unstretched length of 20 cm and a spring constant of 4 N/cm.
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

a) When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is

0.18 J

b) When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J

Explanation:

Hi there!

a) The elastic potential energy (EPE) is calculated using the following equation:

EPE = 1/2 · k · x²

Where:

k = spring constant.

x = stretched lenght.

Let´s calculate the elastic potential energy of the spring when it is stretched 3 cm (0.03 m).

First, let´s convert the spring constant units into N/m:

4 N/cm · 100 cm/m = 400 N/m

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.03 m)²

EPE = 0.18 J

When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is 0.18 J

b) Now let´s calculate the elastic potential energy when the spring is stretched 0.06 m:

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.06 m)²

EPE = 0.72 J

When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J
