Learning Goal: To understand the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom. In 1913 Niels Bohr formulated a method of calculating the different energy levels of the hydrogen atom. He did this by combining both classical and quantum ideas. In this problem, we go through the steps needed to understand the Bohr model of the atom. Part A Consider an electron with charge -e and mass m orbiting in a circle around a hydrogen nucleus (a single proton) with charge +e. In the classical model, the electron orbits around the nucleus, being held in orbit by the electromagnetic interaction between itself and the protons in the nucleus, much like planets orbit around the sun, being held in orbit by their gravitational interaction. When the electron is in a circular orbit, it must meet the condition for circular motion: The magnitude of the net force toward the center, F, is equal to mv²/r. Given these two pieces of information, deduce the velocity of the electron as it orbits around the nucleus. Express your…

QUESTION You have a large, healthy philodendron that you carelessly leave in total darkness while you are on vacation. You are surprised to find that it is still alive when you return. What has the plant been using for an energy source while in the dark? A. When light energy is not available, plants can derive energy from inorganic molecules. B. Even though the plant received no visible light, it was able to use the short-wave part of the electromagnetic spectrum (gamma rays and X-rays) to carry out photosynthesis. C. While it did have access to light, the plant stored energy in the form of sugars or starch, and it was able to derive energy from the stored molecules during your vacation. D. Even though it can't carry out the light reactions, the plant can still produce sugars because the Calvin cycle doesn't require light. E. None of the above.
Thermal neutrons are produced by a fission nuclear reactor. The temperature of the neutrons is about room temperature, T 2 299 K. The kinetic energy of the neutron is E = kgT, where kp = 1.38 x 10–23 J/K is the Boltzmann constant. The mass of a neutron is m, = 1.67 x 10-27 kg. Part 1) Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of a thermal neutron. nm Part 2) The highest energy photons ever observed are y-rays with energies up to 311 trillion electron volts, Ey = 311 × 102 eV.

The photoelectric effect provided evidence that supported the early suggestion by Max Planck that electromagnetic waves exist as discrete packets of energy. a. Describe the energy transformations that occur during the photoelectric effect. b. If the incident light was not causing the emission of any electrons from the target metal, how could the light be changed to start causing emission of electrons? Explain your answer. c. Rather than changing the light source, explain why changing the target metal from part (c) may allow for the detection of emitted electrons.
