An electron in a hydrogen atom makes a transition from the third energy level ( $n = 3$ ) to the second energy level ( $n = 2$ ). If the energy of the electron at $n = 3$ is $-1.51\text{ eV}$ and at $n = 2$ is $-3.40\text{ eV}$ , what is the frequency of the emitted photon?

Cevap: $4.58 \times 10^{14}\text{ Hz}$

Cevap

The frequency of the emitted photon is

4.58 \times 10^{14}\text{ Hz}

.

When an electron transitions from a higher energy state to a lower energy state, it emits a photon whose energy equals the difference between the two levels:

\Delta E = E_3 - E_2 = 1.89\text{ eV}

. Converting

1.89\text{ eV}

to Joules gives

3.024 \times 10^{-19}\text{ J}

. Dividing by Planck's constant (

6.6 \times 10^{-34}\text{ J}\cdot\text{s}

) gives a frequency of

4.58 \times 10^{14}\text{ Hz}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the energy difference between the initial and final energy levels.

\Delta E = E_3 - E_2 = -1.51\text{ eV} - (-3.40\text{ eV}) = 1.89\text{ eV}

The energy of the emitted photon equals the difference in energy between the two states.

2

Convert the energy change from electron-volts (eV) to Joules (J).

\Delta E = 1.89 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\text{ J} = 3.024 \times 10^{-19}\text{ J}

SI units (Joules) are required to calculate frequency using Planck's constant in

\text{J}\cdot\text{s}

.

3

Apply the photon energy formula

E = hf

to find the frequency

f

.

f = \frac{\Delta E}{h} = \frac{3.024 \times 10^{-19}\text{ J}}{6.6 \times 10^{-34}\text{ J}\cdot\text{s}} = 4.5818 \times 10^{14}\text{ Hz} \approx 4.58 \times 10^{14}\text{ Hz}

Dividing energy by Planck's constant yields the photon frequency.

Cevap

Ferrallitic Soils match with the Southern Rainforest belt; Ferruginous Tropical Soils match with the Guinea Savanna on Basement Complex rocks; Hydromorphic Soils match with river basins and low-lying floodplains; Regosols and Semi-Arid Brown Soils match with the northern boundary zones.

Each Nigerian soil group reflects specific climatic, topographic, and lithological controls: Ferrallitic soils belong to the humid southern rainforest, Ferruginous tropical soils cover the central crystalline savanna, Hydromorphic soils occupy floodplains and valleys, and Regosols occur in the dry northern margins.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify climate and vegetation zonal controls on Nigerian soils.

Heavy rainfall in the south produces deeply leached Ferrallitic soils, whereas moderate savanna rainfall produces Ferruginous soils.

Zonal soil formation in Nigeria directly follows the latitudinal rainfall and vegetation gradient.

2

Identify azonal/intrazonal soil types tied to localized drainage and parent material.

River valleys (Fadama) create waterlogged Hydromorphic soils, and dry northern margins create poorly developed Regosols.

Topography and moisture availability create localized hydromorphic soils regardless of regional climate zone.

3

Pair each soil group to its precise regional distribution profile.

All four soil types are matched accurately to their corresponding geographical locations.

The total interest paid on the loan after 2 years is

\text{₦}25,800

.

The compound interest is calculated year by year. In the first year, the interest paid is

15\%

of

\text{₦}80,000 = \text{₦}12,000

, raising the balance to

\text{₦}92,000

. In the second year, the interest paid is

15\%

of

\text{₦}92,000 = \text{₦}13,800

. Adding the two yearly interest payments gives

\text{₦}12,000 + \text{₦}13,800 = \text{₦}25,800

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the interest for the first year.

Interest for Year 1 =

15\%

of

\text{₦}80,000 = \frac{15}{100} \times 80,000 = \text{₦}12,000

.

In compound interest, interest for the first period is calculated on the initial principal.

2

Determine the amount at the end of the first year, which becomes the principal for the second year.

Principal for Year 2 =

\text{₦}80,000 + \text{₦}12,000 = \text{₦}92,000

.

Compound interest adds earned interest to the principal for subsequent period calculations.

3

Calculate the interest for the second year.

Interest for Year 2 =

15\%

of

\text{₦}92,000 = \frac{15}{100} \times 92,000 = \text{₦}13,800

.

Interest in year 2 is computed on the updated principal balance of

\text{₦}92,000

.

4

Sum the interest amounts from both years to find total interest paid.

Total Interest =

\text{₦}12,000 + \text{₦}13,800 = \text{₦}25,800

) according to the reaction equation:

\text{^{2}_{1}H} + \text{^{2}_{1}H} \rightarrow \text{^{3}_{2}He} + \text{^{1}_{0}n} + Q

Given the mass values:
- Mass of $\text{^{2}_{1}H} = 2.0141\text{ u}$
- Mass of $\text{^{3}_{2}He} = 3.0160\text{ u}$
- Mass of $\text{^{1}_{0}n} = 1.0087\text{ u}$

Using the conversion factor $1\text{ u} = 931.5\text{ MeV}$ , what is the energy released ( $Q$ ) in this fusion reaction in $\text{MeV}$ ?

Cevap: 3.26

Cevap

The total energy released (

Q

) in the reaction is

3.26\text{ MeV}

.

The energy released in a nuclear fusion reaction is proportional to the decrease in total rest mass (mass defect). Summing the mass of two deuterium nuclei gives

4.0282\text{ u}

, while the sum of the product masses (

\text{^{3}_{2}He}

and a neutron) is

4.0247\text{ u}

. Subtracting these yields a mass defect of

0.0035\text{ u}

. Multiplying

0.0035\text{ u}

by

931.5\text{ MeV/u}

gives

3.26\text{ MeV}

of released energy.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the total initial mass of the reacting deuterium nuclei.

m_{\text{reactants}} = 2 \times 2.0141\text{ u} = 4.0282\text{ u}

Two deuterium nuclei participate on the reactant side of the equation.

2

Calculate the total final mass of the products.

m_{\text{products}} = 3.0160\text{ u} + 1.0087\text{ u} = 4.0247\text{ u}

The reaction produces one helium-3 nucleus and one neutron.

3

Determine the mass defect (difference between reactant and product masses).

\Delta m = 4.0282\text{ u} - 4.0247\text{ u} = 0.0035\text{ u}

The mass lost during fusion is converted into nuclear kinetic energy and radiation.

4

Myopia pairs with rays focusing in front of the retina (diverging lens correction); Hypermetropia pairs with rays focusing behind the retina (converging lens correction); Astigmatism pairs with uneven corneal curvature (cylindrical lens correction); Presbyopia pairs with age-related loss of accommodation (bifocal lens correction).

Each defect of vision is accurately matched to its optical cause and standard corrective device: Myopia uses diverging lenses to push the image focal plane onto the retina, Hypermetropia uses converging lenses to pull the image forward onto the retina, Astigmatism uses cylindrical lenses for non-spherical corneal curves, and Presbyopia uses bifocal/converging lenses to correct age-related accommodation loss.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze Myopia

Myopia causes distant rays to focus before reaching the retina because the eye lens is overly converging or the eye focal length is too short; a diverging (concave) lens spreads rays to push the focal point back onto the retina.

Identify optical cause and lens remedy for short-sightedness.

2

Analyze Hypermetropia

Hypermetropia causes near rays to focus behind the retina; a converging (convex) lens bends incoming light rays inwards to bring the focal point onto the retina.

Identify optical cause and lens remedy for long-sightedness.

3

Analyze Astigmatism

Astigmatism arises from non-uniform curvature of the refracting surfaces, requiring a cylindrical lens with differential curvature along different planes.

Identify refractive error causing multiple focal planes.

4

Analyze Presbyopia

Presbyopia is due to age-induced stiffening of the eye lens and loss of ciliary accommodation power, which is managed using bifocal or converging lenses.

Cevap

Myopia matches with Concave (diverging) lens, Hypermetropia matches with Convex (converging) lens, Presbyopia matches with Bifocal lens, and Astigmatism matches with Cylindrical lens.

Each eye condition is paired with its specific optical correction: Myopia requires a concave lens to diverge light, Hypermetropia requires a convex lens to converge light, Presbyopia uses a bifocal lens to assist diminished accommodation, and Astigmatism relies on a cylindrical lens to correct asymmetrical curvature.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze Myopia (Short-sightedness)

Parallel rays focus in front of the retina due to an elongated eyeball or over-refractive lens.

Diverging (concave) lenses spread out incoming rays slightly before entering the eye so the focal point shifts back onto the retina.

2

Analyze Hypermetropia (Long-sightedness)

Light rays focus behind the retina due to a shortened eyeball or insufficient focal power.

Converging (convex) lenses provide additional converging power to focus rays directly on the retina.

3

Analyze Presbyopia

The eye lens loses elasticity with age, reducing its power to accommodate both near and far objects.

Bifocal lenses have two distinct focal lengths in a single glass unit to assist with both near and distant vision.

4

Analyze Astigmatism

Cornea or crystalline lens curvature is uneven along different axes, producing distorted vision.

Cylindrical lenses correct uneven refractive power by bending light along one axis without affecting the orthogonal axis.

If a sample of unsaturated air with a relative humidity of $40\%$ at $30^\circ\text{C}$ is compressed isothermally to one-third of its original volume, the final relative humidity of the air will be $100\%$ .

Doğru

Yanlış

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: True

Cevap

True. The relative humidity cannot exceed 100% because water vapour condenses into liquid once its partial pressure reaches the saturated vapour pressure at that temperature.

The statement is true because relative humidity is the ratio of actual partial vapour pressure to saturated vapour pressure at a specific temperature. Although isothermal compression to one-third volume triples the partial pressure of water vapour (giving a theoretical 120%), partial vapour pressure is bounded by the saturated vapour pressure. When the relative humidity reaches 100%, condensation occurs, keeping the relative humidity at exactly 100%.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Apply Boyle's law to calculate the theoretical partial vapour pressure after isothermal compression.

Since volume is reduced to

\frac{1}{3}V_1

at constant temperature, the partial pressure of water vapour would increase by a factor of 3 (

p_2 = 3p_1

).

For an unsaturated vapour at constant temperature, partial pressure is inversely proportional to volume.

2

Determine the theoretical relative humidity from the pressure ratio.

\text{Theoretical R.H.} = 3 \times 40\% = 120\%.

Relative humidity is defined as

\text{R.H.} = \frac{p}{p_s} \times 100\%

, where

p

is the partial pressure and

p_s

is the saturated vapour pressure.

3

Apply the physical limit imposed by saturated vapour pressure.

Cevap: True

Cevap

The statement is true because adding the thermochemical equation for the combustion of hydrogen (which forms liquid water) to the equation for the vaporization of liquid water yields the formation equation for gaseous water from its constituent elements.

The statement accurately reflects Hess's law by combining the reaction for hydrogen combustion to form liquid water with the phase transformation of liquid water into water vapor.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Write the thermochemical equation for the standard enthalpy of combustion of hydrogen gas.

\text{H}_2(g) + \frac{1}{2}\text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow \text{H}_2\text{O}(l) \quad \Delta H_1^\circ = \Delta H_c^\circ[\text{H}_2(g)]

By definition, standard combustion of hydrogen produces water in its standard state at

298\text{ K}

, which is liquid water.

2

Write the thermochemical equation for the standard enthalpy of vaporization of water.

\text{H}_2\text{O}(l) \rightarrow \text{H}_2\text{O}(g) \quad \Delta H_2^\circ = \Delta H_{\text{vap}}^\circ[\text{H}_2\text{O}(l)]

Vaporization represents the phase change of one mole of liquid water into gaseous water.

3

Apply Hess's law to combine Step 1 and Step 2.

\text{H}_2(g) + \frac{1}{2}\text{O}_2(g) + \text{H}_2\text{O}(l) \rightarrow \text{H}_2\text{O}(l) + \text{H}_2\text{O}(g)

, which simplifies to

\text{H}_2(g) + \frac{1}{2}\text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow \text{H}_2\text{O}(g)

with

\Delta H^\circ = \Delta H_1^\circ + \Delta H_2^\circ

.

Summing the two equations cancels out liquid water, leaving the formation reaction of gaseous water from its elemental gases.

15.0\text{ kg}

. A spring balance measures the tension or apparent weight

W_{\text{app}} = m(g - a)

. Substituting

m = 15.0\text{ kg}

, local gravity

g = 6.0\text{ m s}^{-2}

, and downward acceleration

a = 2.0\text{ m s}^{-2}

gives

W_{\text{app}} = 15.0 \times (6.0 - 2.0) = 60.0\text{ N}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the true mass of the object using the beam balance measurement

True mass

m = 15.0\text{ kg}

A beam balance compares unknown mass with standard masses under the same local gravitational field. Because local gravity acts equally on both pans, beam balance readings yield the true invariant mass regardless of local gravitational acceleration or uniform reference frame acceleration (provided net effective gravity is greater than zero).

2

Calculate the effective acceleration experienced inside the accelerating reference frame

g_{\text{eff}} = g_{\text{planet}} - a = 6.0\text{ m s}^{-2} - 2.0\text{ m s}^{-2} = 4.0\text{ m s}^{-2}

When a reference frame accelerates downward at rate

a

, the effective apparent gravitational acceleration felt by objects suspended inside is reduced by

a

.

3

Calculate the apparent weight registered by the spring balance

W_{\text{app}} = m \cdot g_{\text{eff}} = 15.0\text{ kg} \times 4.0\text{ m s}^{-2} = 60.0\text{ N}

A spring balance measures tension force (apparent weight) exerted on its spring, which equals

m(g - a)

in a downward accelerating system.

Cevap

The correct order from lowest frequency to highest frequency is: Aerial antenna (Radio waves) → Thermopile (Infrared) → Photographic plate sensitive to sun-tanning radiation (Ultraviolet) → Geiger-Müller tube (Gamma rays).

The correct sequence arranges the instruments according to the increasing frequency of the radiation they detect. Radio waves (detected by an aerial antenna) have the lowest frequency, followed by infrared radiation (detected by a thermopile), ultraviolet radiation (detected by photographic plates sensitive to sun-tanning rays), and gamma rays (detected by a Geiger-Müller tube) which have the highest frequency.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the type of electromagnetic radiation detected by each device.

Aerial antenna detects radio waves; Thermopile detects infrared radiation; Photographic plate for tanning radiation detects ultraviolet radiation; Geiger-Müller tube detects gamma rays.

Each detector operates on specific physical properties characteristic of a particular band of the electromagnetic spectrum.

2

Recall the order of the electromagnetic spectrum in terms of frequency (

f

).

Radio waves (

< 10^9\text{ Hz}

) < Infrared (

10^{11} - 10^{14}\text{ Hz}

) < Ultraviolet (

10^{15} - 10^{17}\text{ Hz}

) < Gamma rays (

> 10^{19}\text{ Hz}

).

Frequency increases continuously across the spectrum from radio waves to gamma rays.

3

Sequence the detectors based on their associated radiation frequencies from lowest to highest.

Aerial antenna

\rightarrow

Thermopile

\rightarrow

Photographic plate sensitive to sun-tanning radiation

\rightarrow

Geiger-Müller tube.

This directly matches the increasing frequency order of radio waves, infrared, ultraviolet, and gamma rays.

Cevap: It decreases to one-half of its original value

Cevap

The de Broglie wavelength decreases to one-half of its original value.

The de Broglie wavelength

\lambda

of a particle is given by

\lambda = \frac{h}{p}

, where momentum

p = \sqrt{2m E_k}

. Substituting momentum into the wavelength equation yields

\lambda = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2m E_k}}

. If kinetic energy

E_k

quadruples, the denominator increases by a factor of

\sqrt{4} = 2

, which reduces the wavelength to half of its initial value.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Relate de Broglie wavelength to momentum and kinetic energy.

The de Broglie wavelength is given by

\lambda = \frac{h}{p}

. Since kinetic energy

E_k = \frac{p^2}{2m}

, momentum is

p = \sqrt{2m E_k}

. Thus,

\lambda = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2m E_k}}

.

Establishing the mathematical relationship between wavelength

\lambda

and kinetic energy

E_k

.

2

Apply the scaling factor of 4 to the kinetic energy.

When

E_k' = 4 E_k

, the new wavelength

\lambda'

is

\lambda' = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2m (4 E_k)}} = \frac{h}{2\sqrt{2m E_k}} = \frac{\lambda}{2}

.

Evaluating the square root factor

\sqrt{4} = 2

in the denominator.

3

Conclude the final ratio.

The new wavelength is half the original wavelength.

The de Broglie wavelength is inversely proportional to the square root of kinetic energy.

Cevap

Concentration of low-grade sulfide ores matches Froth flotation using oil collectors; Extraction of highly electropositive metals matches Electrolysis of fused salts; Reduction of haematite matches Chemical reduction by carbon monoxide gas; Refining of crude blister copper matches Electrolytic dissolution of impure anode and deposition of pure metal on cathode.

The paired principles directly correspond to standard industrial metallurgy: froth flotation uses oil wettability to concentrate sulfide ores; fused salt electrolysis extracts top-series electropositive metals; carbon monoxide reduces iron oxide in the blast furnace; and electro-refining purifies crude metal using crude anode oxidation and pure cathode deposition.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the physical concentration technique suitable for sulfide minerals.

Sulfide ores like galena and chalcopyrite selectively attach to air bubbles created by oil collectors and froth up, separating from waste gangue.

Difference in surface wettability between sulfide ore and siliceous gangue.

2

Evaluate the extraction strategy based on the reactivity series of metals.

Metals positioned near the top of the reactivity series (

Al

,

Na

,

Ca

) require electrical energy for reduction because carbon cannot displace them from their oxides.

High electropositivity means these metals have higher affinity for oxygen than carbon has.

3

Identify the primary chemical reducing agent in the blast furnace.

Coke burns to form

CO_2

, which reacts further with coke to give

CO

.

CO

gas then reduces

Fe_2O_3

step-by-step to molten iron.

CO

is a effective gaseous reducing agent that penetrates porous ore charges.

4

Analyze the electrolytic purification mechanism for crude metals.

Impurities stay in solution or form anode sludge while metal ions migrate and plate onto the cathode as pure copper metal.

Anodic oxidation releases

Cu^{2+}

ions while cathode reduction ensures selective plating of pure copper.

A spring balance and an equal-arm beam balance are used to measure an object at a location where the local acceleration due to gravity is $8.0\text{ m s}^{-2}$ . If the spring balance registers a weight of $40\text{ N}$ , what mass will the equal-arm beam balance register at this location?

5.0\text{ kg}

4.0\text{ kg}

320\text{ kg}

50\text{ kg}

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $5.0\text{ kg}$

Cevap

The equal-arm beam balance will register a mass of

5.0\text{ kg}

.

Weight is given by

W = mg

. Given

W = 40\text{ N}

and

g = 8.0\text{ m s}^{-2}

, the mass of the object is

m = \frac{40}{8.0} = 5.0\text{ kg}

. An equal-arm beam balance balances the unknown mass against standard masses under the exact same local gravitational field, so local gravity cancels out and it accurately measures the object's mass as

5.0\text{ kg}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the true mass of the object from the spring balance reading

m = \frac{W}{g} = \frac{40\text{ N}}{8.0\text{ m s}^{-2}} = 5.0\text{ kg}

Weight is the gravitational force acting on a mass (

W = mg

), so mass equals weight divided by local acceleration due to gravity.

2

Determine the reading on the equal-arm beam balance

Mass registered =

5.0\text{ kg}

An equal-arm beam balance compares the gravitational force on the unknown mass against standard masses. Because local gravity affects both sides equally, it measures true mass independent of local gravitational acceleration.

A straight copper rod of length $0.50\text{ m}$ and mass $40\text{ g}$ carries a steady current and is suspended horizontally in a uniform magnetic field of $0.40\text{ T}$ . The field is directed horizontally at an angle of $30^\circ$ to the length of the rod. If the upward magnetic force acting on the rod exactly balances its weight, what is the magnitude of the current flowing through the rod? (Take $g = 10\text{ m/s}^2$ )

0.25\text{ A}

2.0\text{ A}

4.0\text{ A}

40\text{ A}

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $4.0\text{ A}$

Cevap

The magnitude of the current required to balance the weight of the rod is

4.0\text{ A}

.

For the rod to remain suspended in equilibrium, the upward magnetic force

F_B = BIL \sin \theta

must balance the downward gravitational force

W = mg

. Substituting

m = 0.040\text{ kg}

,

g = 10\text{ m/s}^2

,

B = 0.40\text{ T}

,

L = 0.50\text{ m}

, and

\theta = 30^\circ

yields

0.40 = 0.40 \times I \times 0.50 \times 0.50

, which solves to

I = 4.0\text{ A}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Convert the mass of the rod to kilograms and calculate its weight.

m = 40\text{ g} = 0.040\text{ kg}

, so

W = mg = 0.040\text{ kg} \times 10\text{ m/s}^2 = 0.40\text{ N}

.

Standard SI units must be used to ensure dimensional consistency.

2

Express the magnetic force acting on the conductor in terms of current

I

.

F_B = B I L \sin \theta = (0.40\text{ T}) \times I \times (0.50\text{ m}) \times \sin 30^\circ = 0.10 I\text{ N}

.

The magnetic force on a current-carrying conductor at an angle

\theta

to a magnetic field is given by

F = BIL \sin \theta

.

3

Equate the upward magnetic force to the downward weight to find

I

.

0.10 I = 0.40 \implies I = \frac{0.40}{0.10} = 4.0\text{ A}

.

For vertical equilibrium, the net vertical force must equal zero.
