Answer:
The right option is option E. None of the answer choices given are totally correct.
Explanation:
All insulators normally have an equal amount of positive and negative charges distributed on their surface.
The amber rod (an insulator) is called negative because after the coming together with fur (another insulator), the amber rod rubs off electrons from the fur onto itself and has an overall more negatively charged particles than positively charged particles on its surface.
The fur in turn becomes positive because it has more positive charges than negative on its surface.
So, the convention allows the now rubbed off amber rod to be called negative.
So, it is evident that none of the answer choices are totally correct, the right answer is more of a mix of some of the answer choices and more!
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
Distance: 21 yd, displacement: 15 yd, gain in the play: 12 yd
Explanation:
The distance travelled by Sam is just the sum of the length of each part of Sam's motion, regardless of the direction. Initially, Sam run from the 3 yd line to the 15 yd line, so (15-3)=12 yd. Then, he run also 9 yd to the right. Therefore, the total distance is
d = 12 + 9 = 21 yd
The displacement instead is a vector connecting the starting point with the final point of the motion. Sam run first 12 yd straight ahead and then 9 yd to the right; these two motions are perpendicular to each other, so we can find the displacement simply by using Pythagorean's theorem:
Finally, the yards gained by Sam in the play are simply given by the distance covered along the forward-backward direction only. Since Sam only run from the 3 yd line to the 15 yd line along this direction, then the gain in this play was
d = 15 - 3 = 12 yd
Answer:
Explanation:
Electrons are allowed "in between" quantized energy levels, and, thus, only specific lines are observed. <em>FALSE. </em>The specific lines are obseved because of the energy level transition of an electron in an specific level to another level of energy.
The energies of atoms are not quantized. <em>FALSE. </em>The energies of the atoms are in specific levels.
When an electron moves from one energy level to another during absorption, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted. <em>FALSE. </em>During absorption, a specific wavelength of light is absorbed, not emmited.
Electrons are not allowed "in between" quantized energy levels, and, thus, only specific lines are observed. <em>TRUE. </em>Again, you can observe just the transition due the change of energy of an electron in the quantized energy level
When an electron moves from one energy level to another during emission, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted. <em>TRUE. </em>The electron decreases its energy releasing a specific wavelength of light.
The energies of atoms are quantized. <em>TRUE. </em>In fact, the energy of all subatomic, atomic, and molecular particles is quantized.
Electrical shock is most likely to be fatal when the path of the current is through the heart.
