Suppose that we repeat the experiment, except that we place the sodium flame in a strong, localized electric field. The field ch

anges the energy levels of the sodium atom, but it does not affect the sodium in the lamp or the photons it produces. The shadow cast by the sodium flame when illuminated by the sodium lamp should Stay the same, get darker, or lighter?

Answer:

Lighter

Explanation:

In practice, the lamp is powered by an AC voltage source which is connected in series with an inductive ballast in order to supply an approximately constant current to the lamp, rather than a constant voltage. This helps to provide a stable operation. The ballast is usually inductive rather than simply being resistive to maximize resistive losses.

As this lamp current tending to zero-current point and shadow cast by the sodium flame becoming lighter.

Gravitational force depends on the mass of an object.
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

sun, earth, capitol building, human, atom

Explanation:

Gravity is directly proportional to the size of an object. Therefore, the object with the most mass will have the greatest force of gravity. We know this from the equation. F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

Explain why you can only change one variable in an experiment
ohaa [14]
The purpose of an experiment is to LEARN the EFFECT of something.

The way you do that is to CHANGE the thing and see what happens.

You can change as many things as you want to.  But If you change
TWO things and observe the result, then you don't know which one
of them caused the effect you see. 

Or maybe BOTH of them working together caused it.  You don't know. 

So your experiment is not really much good.  You need to do it again.

A circuit consists of a 12 V battery connected across a single resistor. If the current in the circuit is
finlep [7]

Answer:

4 Ohms

Explanation:

Apply the formula:

Voltage = I (current) . Resistance

You can change it the way you want to use for your purpose.

In this case...

R = V/I

R = 12/3

R = 4 Ohms (Ohm is the unit of measurement of eletrical resistance)

An ant is crawling along a yardstick that is pointed with the 0-inch mark to the east and the 36-inch mark to the west. It start
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

it moves 25 inches.

Explanation:

the east west bit isn't important, ignore it. if an ant starts at 6 then moves to 19 then we need to subtract 19 from 6, that's 13. then it moves to 7. the difference between 19 and 7 is 12. add that to 13 and you get 25. it's important to remember that there is no such thing as negative distance. if it moved, then it counts.
