The energy level diagram is for a hypotenitcal atom. A gas of these atoms incitially in the ground state is irrediated with photons having a continuous range of energies between 7 and 10 electron volts. One would expect photons of which of the following energies to be emiited from the gas ?

Two stars bound together by gravity orbit othe because of their mutual attraction. Such a pair of stars is referred to as a binary star system. One type of binary system is that of a black hole and a companion star. The black hole is a star that has cullapsed on itself and is so missive that not even light rays can escape its gravitational pull therefore when describing the relative motion of a black hole and companion star, the motion of the black hole can be assumed negligible compared to that of the companion. The orbit of the companion star is either elliptical with the black hole at one of the foci or circular with the black hole at the centre. The gravitational potential energy is given by U=-GmM//r where G is the universal gravitational constant, m is the mass of the companion star, M is the mass of the black hole, and r is the distance between the centre of the companion star and the centre of the black hole. Since the gravitational force is conservative. The companion star and the centre of the black hole, since the gravitational force is conservative the companion star's total mechanical energy is a constant. Because of the periodic nature of of orbit there is a simple relation between the average kinetic energy ltKgt of the companion star Two special points along the orbit are single out by astronomers. Parigee isthe point at which the companion star is closest to the black hole, and apogee is the point at which is the farthest from the black hole. Q. Which of the following prevents the companion star from leaving its orbit and falling the black hole?

Some people say that if we start living as our ancestors, this would conserve energy and our ecosystem. Do you think this idea is feasible ?

To find out the names of organisations involved in spreading awareness about the conservation of natural resources. NGO (Non Government Organisations) such us SEACOLOGY and Mera Desh Foundation spread awareness about the environment and promote activities that lead to conservation of natural resources. Some other organisations that work for the conservation of the environment. CSE - The Centre for Science and Environment, TER- The Energy and Resources Institute, WTI - Wildlife Trust of India.

Statement A: We need to look for more and more source of energy. Reason R:There are only limited reserves of fossil fuels. Which option is correct for statement A and reason R?

In problems involving electromagenetism it is often convenlent and informative to express answers in terms of a constant, alpha , which is a combination of the Coulomb constant, k_(e) = 1//4piepsi_(0) , the charge of the electron, e, and h = h//2 , h being Planck's constant. For instant, the lowest energy that a hydrogen atom can have is given by E = 1//2 alpha^(2) mc^(2) , wherer m is the mass of the electron and c is the speed of light. Which of the following is the correct expression for alpha ? (HINt : non-relativistic kinetic energy is 1//2 mv^(2) , where v is speed.)
