What are the (a) energy, (b) magnitude of the momentum, and (c) wavelength of the photon emitted when a hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from a state with n = 4 to a state with n = 2? (a) Number 2.55 Units eV (b) Number 1.3617 Units kg-m/s or N-s (c) Number 4.865976353 Units This answer has no units
Using the Bohr model, calculate the speed of the electron when it is in the first excited state, n = 2. The Bohr radius ₁ 5.29 x 10-11 m. Assume the electron is non-relativistic.
A hypothetical atom has only two atomic energy levels, separated by 3.2 eV. Suppose that at a certain altitude in the atmosphere of a star there are 6.1 * 1013/cm3 of these atoms in the higher-energy state and 2.5 * 1015/cm3 in the lower-energy state. What is the temperature of the star’s atmosphere at that altitude?
