That is, Equation 2 is of the form of a straight line; hence the Rydberg constant is the negative of the slope. Plot y = 1/A vs. x = 1/n, on the graph paper provided, then determine the slope m = -R₁. Be sure to label the axes of the graph. As a check, compare this value of R,, with the y-intercept, which should equal R./4. To make it easy, set up a table (next page) for the data. Use meters for wavelength; the units of R,, will be meter. Show your calculations in the space below: Ru 4 b= (10-1)

A microwave oven works by generating electromagnetic radiation that can be absorbed by water molecules causing them to rotate faster. The friction of the rotating water molecules is lost to their surroundings, thus heating up the food you place in the microwave oven. A microwave oscillator (thing that makes microwaves) emits radiation at a wavelength of 12.24 cm. What is the minimum time it will take a 800 Watt (i.e. 800 Js4) microwave oven emitting 12.24 cm wavelength photons to heat 100 g of water from 20° to 50° C? The heat capacity of water is 4.18 Jg1 deg1?
