Answer to Problem 31P

The moment of inertia is 1.454×1046kgm2 and rotational energy is 0.2385meV .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The equilibrium separation is r=0.113nm .

Formula used:

The expression for moment of inertia is given by,

  I=mCmOr2mC+mO

The expression for rotational energy is given by,

  E0r=22I

Calculation:

The moment of inertiais calculated as,

  I=mCmOr2mC+mO=(12u)(16u)(12u)+(16u)((0.113nm)(109m1nm))2(1.661×1027kg/u)=1.454×1046kgm2

The rotational energy is calculated as,

  E0r=22I=(6.58×1016eVs)(1.602×1019J1eV)2(1.454×1046kgm2)=((0.2385×103eV)(103meV1eV))=0.2385meV

Conclusion:

Therefore, the moment of inertia is 1.454×1046kgm2 and rotational energy is 0.2385meV .

Answer to Problem 31P

The wavelengths for each transition from start are 2.6×103m , 1.3×103m , 0.867×103m , 0.650×103m and 0.52×103m .

Explanation of Solution

Formula used:

The expression for wavelength is given by,

  λl,l1=hc2lΔE0r

Calculation:

The first wavelength is calculated as,

  λl,l1=hc2lΔE0rλ1,0=(4.136×1015eVs)(3.0×108m/s)2(1)((0.2385meV)(103eV1meV))=2.6×103m

The second wavelength is calculated as,

  λl,l1=hc2lΔE0rλ2,1=(4.136×1015eVs)(3.0×108m/s)2(2)((0.2385meV)(103eV1meV))=1.3×103m

The third wavelength is calculated as,

  λl,l1=hc2lΔE0rλ3,2=(4.136×1015eVs)(3.0×108m/s)2(3)((0.2385meV)(103eV1meV))=0.867×103m

The fourth wavelength is calculated as,

  λl,l1=hc2lΔE0rλ4,3=(4.136×1015eVs)(3.0×108m/s)2(4)((0.2385meV)(103eV1meV))=0.650×103m

The fifth wavelength is calculated as,

  λl,l1=hc2lΔE0rλ5,4=(4.136×1015eVs)(3.0×108m/s)2(5)((0.2385meV)(103eV1meV))=0.52×103m

Conclusion:

Therefore, the wavelengths for each transition from start are 2.6×103m , 1.3×103m , 0.867×103m , 0.650×103m and 0.52×103m .
