It’s carbon and it’s heat value
Wouldn't it be neat if an electron falling closer to the nucleus ... emitting a
photon ... actually gave out more energy than it needed to climb to its original
energy level by absorbing a photon ! If there were some miraculous substance
that could do that, we'd have it made.
All we'd need is a pile of it in our basement, with a bright light bulb over the pile,
connected to a tiny hand-crank generator.
Whenever we wanted some energy, like for cooking or heating the house, we'd
switch the light bulb on, point it towards the pile, and give the little generator a
little shove. It wouldn't take much to git 'er going.
The atoms in the pile would absorb some photons, raising their electrons to higher
energy levels. Then the electrons would fall back down to lower energy levels,
releasing more energy than they needed to climb up. We could take that energy,
use some of it to keep the light bulb shining on the pile, and use the extra to heat
the house or run the dishwasher.
The energy an electron absorbs when it climbs to a higher energy level (forming
the atom's absorption spectrum) is precisely identical to the energy it emits when
it falls back to its original level (creating the atom's emission spectrum).
Energy that wasn't either there in the atom to begin with or else pumped
into it from somewhere can't be created there.
You get what you pay for, or, as my grandfather used to say, "For nothing

4 A
Explanation:
The relationship between current, voltage and resistance in a circuit is given by Ohm's law:
where
V is the voltage
R is the resistance
I is the current
The equation can also be rewritten as
from which we see that the current is inversely proportional to the resistance, R.
In this problem, the initial current is I = 8 A. Then the resistance is doubled:
R ' = 2R
So the new current is
so the current is halved.
Answer:
William Gilbert
Explanation:
first described the Earth as a giant dipole magnet 400 years ago. But, as Rod Wilson recounts, he did far more than this.
