Why does the energy of characteristic x rays become increasingly greater for heavier atoms?
The rate at which solar wind particles enter the atmosphere is higher during the day than at night, yet the intensity of the auroral emissions remains high well after the Sun has set. Can you suggest a means by which the atmospheric molecules might be able to radiate long after the period of collisions with charged particles has ended? (Hint: How long does it take a typical atom to radiate from a normal allowed energy state? How could this time be lengthened?)
Do gravitational forces have a significant effect on atomic energy levels?
An atom has an electron with m1=2. What is the smallest value of n for this electron?
. Figure 10.47 is the energy-level diagram for a particularly simple, fictitious element, Vernium (Vn). Indicate by the use of arrows all allowed transitions leading to the emission of photons from this atom and order the frequencies of these photons from highest (largest) to lowest (smallest).
