About The Bohr Model of the Hydrogen Atom

AI Thread Summary
To determine the energy required to remove the remaining electron from a singly ionized helium atom (He+), the relevant equations involve the energy levels, where energy is proportional to the atomic number (Z) and inversely proportional to the square of the principal quantum number (n). For hydrogen, the ground state energy is -13.6 eV, and for He+ with Z=2 and n=1, the energy can be calculated as E = -13.6 eV * (Z^2) = -54.4 eV. Thus, the energy required to remove the electron is 54.4 eV. The correct answer is (d) 54.4 eV. Understanding these relationships is crucial for solving similar problems in atomic physics.

Do you know the relation between E and Z & n.

E \propto Z
E \propto \frac{1}{{n}^{2}}

For the ground state(n=1) of hydrogen(Z=1), E = -13.6eV

Here Z=2 & n=1.

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
