Below is a energy level scheme of a hypothetical one-electron element Mathematicum. The potential energy is taken to be zero for an electron at an infinite distance from the nucleus. The definition of the ground state is n = 1. What will happen to the atom if a photon of energy of 20 eV strikes a Mathematicum atom in its ground state? Explain. An 18-eV photon is absorbed by a Mathematicum atom in the ground state. As the atom returns to the ground state, what possible energies can the emitted photons have? Assume there can be transitions between all pairs of levels, including sub-transitions back to the ground state. What will happen to the atom if a photon of energy of 5 eV strikes a Mathematicum atom in its ground state? Explain. What will happen to the atom if a photon of energy of 15 eV strikes a Mathematicum atom in its ground state? Explain. Photons emitted in the Mathematicum transitions n = 4 to n = 2 and n = 3 to n = 1 will eject photoelectrons from a certain metal, but the photons emitted from the transitions n = 4 to n = 3 will not. What are the limits (minimum and maximum values) of the Work function of the metal? Could the work function be 6.0 eV?

Your starship, the aimless wanderer, lands on the mysterious planet mongo. as chief scientist-engineer, you make the following measurements: a 2.50-kg stone thrown upward from the ground at 14.0 m/s returns to the ground in 5.70 s ; the circumference of mongo at the equator is 2.20×10^5 km ; and there is no appreciable atmosphere on mongo. (a) the starship commander, captain confusion, asks for the following information: what is the mass of mongo? (b) if the aimless wanderer goes into a circular orbit 2.20×10^4 km above the surface of mongo, how many hours will it take the ship to complete one orbit? (c) an unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 44.0 km . to the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 23.0 m/s . if nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?

Aflask with vinegar in it has a mass of 160 grams. a balloon with baking soda in it has a mass of 40 grams. the balloon is attached to the flask to seal the opening and the vinegar and baking soda mixes. the balloon inflates to a large volume. what will the total mass of the balloon and flask be after the balloon inflates? explain. a) less than 200 grams because the solid baking soda disappears. b) 200 grams, because all the atoms remain in the balloon or flask. c) more than 200 grams because the size of the balloon is so much larger. d) less than 200 grams because gases such as the one in the balloon are lighter than solids and liquids.
