Chinook salmon are able to move through water especially fast by jumping out of the water periodically. this behavior is called porpoising. suppose a salmon swimming in still water jumps out of the water with velocity 6.65 m/s at 48.1â° above the horizontal, sails through the air a distance l before returning to the water, and then swims the same distance l underwater in a straight, horizontal line with velocity 3.79 m/s before jumping out again. (a) determine the average velocity of the fish for the entire process of jumping and swimming underwater. incorrect: your answer is incorrect. your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. double check your calculations. m/s (b) consider the time interval required to travel the entire distance of 2l. by what percentage is this time interval reduced by the jumping/swimming process compared with simply swimming underwater at 3.79 m/s?

Some material consisting of a collection of microscopic objects is kept at a high temperature. a photon detector capable of detecting photon energies from infrared through ultraviolet observes photons emitted with energies of 0.3 ev, 0.5 ev, 0.8 ev, 2.0ev, 2.5ev, and 2.8ev. these are the only photon energies observed. (a) draw and label a possible energy-level diagram for one of the microscopic objects, which has four bound states. on the diagram, indicate the transitions corresponding to the emitted photons. explain briefly. (b) would a spring–mass model be a good model for these microscopic objects? why or why not? (c) the material is now cooled down to a very low temperature, and the photon detector stops detecting photon emissions. next, a beam of light with a continuous range of energies from infrared through ultraviolet shines on the material, and the photon detector observes the beam of light after it passes through the material. what photon energies in this beam of light are observed to be significantly reduced in intensity (“dark absorption lines”)? explain briefly.
