Answer from: bnnn

Red light

Explanation:

The energy emitted during an electron transition in an atom of hydrogen is given by

$E=E_0 (\frac{1}{n_2^2}-\frac{1}{n_1^2})$

where

E_0 = 13.6 eV is the energy of the lowest level

n1 and n2 are the numbers corresponding to the two levels

Here we have

n1 = 3

n2 = 2

So the energy of the emitted photon is

$E=(13.6) (\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2})=1.9 eV$

Converting into Joules,

$E=(1.9 eV)(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV)=3.0\cdot 10^{-19} J$

And now we can find the wavelength of the emitted photon by using the equation

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where h is the Planck constant and c is the speed of light. Solving for $\lambda$ ,

$\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34})(3\cdot 10^8)}{3.0\cdot 10^{-19}}=6.63\cdot 10^{-7} m = 663 nm$

And this wavelength corresponds to red light.

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice

c. a compressed spring

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice is the correct option.

Answer from: Quest

this is an example of "committed" time.

committed time, as contracted time, takes need over essential and available time since it is seen as profitable work. it alludes to the time allotted to keep up a home and family. at the point when a man is commuting using committed time this individual may feel that the drive is an obligation to family, for example, strolling youngsters to class or driving a mate to work. contracted and committed time clients may feel that their commute could really compare to the commute of important or leisure time clients on the grounds that their commute is profitable work. in this manner, they might be more disposed to pick a mechanized method of movement.
