    What are the allowed radii and energy levels in the Bohr model?

    Thanks. Yea it was simple. I had just gotten so used to putting my answers in terms of variables, I didnt notice that they had asked for a numerical value. : )

    What are the allowed radii and energy levels in the Bohr model?

    Alright I figured out what I was doing wrong for parts B, C, and D. I got (1/2)*(Z/(4piepsilon0))*e^2/r for B), -((Z/(4piepsilon0))*e^2/r) for C) and -(1/2)*(Z/(4piepsilon0))*e^2/((N^2(hbar^2/((1/(4piepsilon0))e^2m)))/Z) for D). I would just like some guidance now on this last part. (e)...

    What are the allowed radii and energy levels in the Bohr model?

    Is there a reason that nobody has made an attempt to answer my question?

    Weight on a Hypothetical Planet

    Like I said before, to find the mass you don't need to use the mass and radius of the earth. The gravitational force on the surface of the Earth is 9.8 N/Kg. So take 600N/(9.8N/Kg) and it will give the mass of the person.

    Conservation of Momentum, Everygy, Etc

    I agree with your answers to 1 and 2. but for the rest, 3 is true based on the principles of elastic collisions and conservation of momentum 4 is false if mechanical energy is referring to kinetic energy since energy is lost 5 is true - its just a basic principle of vectors 6 I am not too sure...

    Weight on a Hypothetical Planet

    You have the equation for force exerted by the planet. F = (G x M x m)/(R2) You know G (a constant), M (1/100 the mass of the earth), and R (1/4 the radius of the earth). All you need is the mass of the person. If the Earth exerts 600N on this person, then his mass is equal to 600N/(9.8N/Kg)...

    What are the allowed radii and energy levels in the Bohr model?

    Homework Statement The Bohr model The Bohr model correctly predicts the main energy levels not only for atomic hydrogen but also for other "one-electron" atoms where all but one of the atomic electrons has been moved, as as in He+ (one electron removed) or Li++ (two electrons removed). To...

    Matlab matrix selection of data using for loops and if statements ,,

    You just need to put it all inside of a case statement. so after you run rem, you have another vector, which you called "x" above for r=1:length(x) if x(r)<0 x(r)=0; elseif x(r)>0 && x(r)<1 x(r)=floor(x(r)); else x(r)=ceil(x(r))...

    Rotational Speed of a Space Station

    I'm having trouble on this same problem. Now I'm not 100% sure, but for the initial angular momentum, aren't you supposed to calculate the angular momentum of the package as a separate particle rotating about the same axis. you have: I*ωi + R*m*v1(=0)*cos(theta) = I*ωf + R*m*v2*cos(theta) Do...

    Help with change in internal energy for a real system.

    alright. But, I'm having trouble calculating the kinetic energy since this is for a real system whereas the other value i calculated was the velocity for the point-particle system.

    Help with change in internal energy for a real system.

    Homework Statement Tarzan, whose mass is 110 kg, is hanging at rest from a tree limb. Then he let's go and falls to the ground. Just before he let's go, his center of mass is at a height 3.0 m above the ground and the bottom of his dangling feet are at a height 2.0 above the ground. When he...

    Formally finding the center of mass

    You're talking about the centerpoints of the rod? if so they would just be L/2, but how would you put that into a useful form to fit the equation for both axes?

    Formally finding the center of mass

    I'm working on this same problem and I can't make heads or tails of what's being asked. The explanation doesn't seem very clear, so if it makes sense to somebody please explain what they're asking for.
