Unit 1

?
what do line spectra give evidence for in a gas?
atomic energy levels
1 of 11
in the equation, hf=E1-E2, identify each term and their units
h=plancks constant (Js) f= frequency (Hz) E1 E2= energy levels
2 of 11
what is excitation? what is de-excitation?
electron gains energy so it moves to a higher energy level. goes to a lower level and photon is produced
3 of 11
what is the particle and wave behavior of light?
photoelectric effect, diffraction by diffraction by diffraction grating
4 of 11
what is the particle and wave behavior of electrons?
deflection, diffraction by graphite
5 of 11
In the equation λ=h/p=h/mv identify each term and give their units
λ= wavelength (m) m=mass (kg) v=velocity (m/s) h=plancks constant m=momentum
6 of 11
in the equation V=W/Q identify each term and give their units
v= potential difference (v) q= charge (c) w= energy (Js)
7 of 11
in the equation I= △Q/△t identify each term and give their units
I= current (A) △Q= change in charge (c) △t= change in time
8 of 11
In the equation R=V/I identify each term and give their units
r= resistance (ohms) v=voltage (volts) I=current (amps)
9 of 11
in the equation, p=RA/l
p=resistivity r=resistance (ohms) A= cross section area l= lenght
10 of 11
what is meant by the critical temperature of a superconductor?
temperature at and below which has zero resistance
