a)Suppose a hydrogen molecule in its ground state is dissociated by absorbing a photon of ultraviolet light, causing the two hydrogen atoms to fly apart. What photon energy will give each atom a speed of 19 km/s? The mass of a hydrogen atom is 1.7×10^−27 kg
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
For an advanced lab project, you are studying an unknown hydrogen-like atom. For these atoms, you determine that as excited atoms de-excite, the n = 3 → 2 transition emits a wavelength of 1.823 ✕ 10−8 m and the n = 4 → 2 transition emits a wavelength of 1.350 ✕ 10−8 m. Determine the wavelength (in m) of light emitted in the n = 4 → 3 transition.
The electrons of a particular atom rearrange over a period of about 1 nanosecond and the process is accompanied by the emission of a
photon with energy 2.04 eV. How many wavelengths long is the photon?
