The watt is a unit of power
yaroslaw [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The answer is D) Power.

Explanation:

Watt is the coherent derivative unit of the International system of units for power. The watt symbol is W and is equal to 1 joules per second. The watt, its multiples and submultiples are units applicable to any power, be it mechanical, electrical, magnetic, acoustic, or any other type.

Two stars in a faraway part of the Milky Way are orbiting each other as a binary star system. By
natita [175]

Answer: M_{total}= 1.85

Explanation: Estimate the total mass of a binary system is done by a reformulation of <em>Kepler's Third Law</em>, which states that the square of the period of a planet's orbit is proportional to the cube of its semimajor axis, i.e.:

a^{3}=(M_{1}+M_{2})P^{2}

where

a is semimajor axis in astronomical units (AU);

P is period measured in years;

M_{1}+M_{2} is total mass of the two-stars system;

For the two stars faraway in the Milky Way:

1 year is equivalent of 365 days, so period in years:

P=\frac{594}{365}

P = 1.63 years

Calculating total mass:

a^{3}=(M_{total})P^{2}

M_{total}=\frac{a^{3}}{P^{2}}

M_{total}=\frac{1.7^{3}}{1.63^{2}}

M_{total}= 1.85

<u>The total mass of the two-object system is 1.85 mass units.</u>

Where is the highest-energy electron found in an atom of hydrogen?
tangare [24]
In the basic hydrogen atom, shown below left, the cloud is densest in the center and thins out with distance from the nucleus, which means the electron is most likely to be found near the nucleus, in a region about 1/20 nm in size.

What is the origin of the atomic emission spectrum of an element
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The electronic transition of an electron back to a lower energy level generates an emission spectrum.

Explanation:

The atomic emission spectrum¹ of an element has its origin when an electronic transition² occurs. An electron in an atom or ion³will absorb energy coming from a source and pass to a higher energy level, the electron, upon returning to its base state will emit a photon⁴ or a series of photons.

Hence, that leads to the formation of an emission spectrum.

Remember that an electron has energy levels in an atom or ion, at which each energy level has a specific value.

The energy values will differ from one element to another. So, it can be concluded that each element has a unique pattern of emission lines.

Key terms:        

¹Spectrum: Decomposition of light in its characteristic colors.

²Electronic transition: When an electron passes from one energy level to another, either for the emission or absorption of a photon.

³Ion: An atom electrically charged due to the gain or loss of electrons.

⁴Photon: Elementary particle that constitutes light.
