Convert Rydberg constant to Joule
Rydberg constant
The Rydberg constant (Rₕ) is a physical constant related to the energy of photons emitted or absorbed by an electron transitioning between energy levels in an atom. It is used in atomic physics to describe the wavelengths of spectral lines.
The Rydberg constant is named after the Swedish physicist Johannes Rydberg, who developed the Rydberg formula to predict the wavelengths of spectral lines in hydrogen and other elements.
Joule
The joule (J) is the SI unit of energy, work, and heat, defined as the amount of energy transferred when a force of one newton acts over a distance of one meter. It is mathematically expressed as 1 J = 1 N·m = 1 kg·m²/s², where N is newton, kg is kilogram, m is meter, and s is second. The joule is commonly used to measure energy in various forms, including mechanical, electrical, and thermal energy.
The joule is named after James Prescott Joule, an English physicist who is best known for his work on the relationship between heat and mechanical work. His experiments in the 19th century demonstrated that mechanical energy could be converted into heat, contributing to the formulation of the law of conservation of energy. His work laid the foundation for modern thermodynamics, highlighting that energy is conserved and can be transformed but not created or destroyed.
