You lower a 2.50 kg textbook (remember when textbooks used to be made out of paper instead of being digital?) from a height of 1

.85 m to 1.50 m. What is its change in potential energy?
Physics

Answer:

Change in potential energy = 8.58 J

Explanation:

Potential energy = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity x Height

Potential energy = mgh

m = 2.50 kg

g = 9.81 m/s²

Initial height, h₁ = 1.85 m

Final height, h₂ = 1.50 m

Change in potential energy = mgh₁  - mgh₂

Change in potential energy = 2.5 x 9.81 x 1.85 - 2.5 x 9.81 x 1.50

Change in potential energy = 8.58 J

Which statements describe elements? Check all that apply.
solmaris [256]
The answers are B, C, E and F.

Atoms from an element is mostly made of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Proton numbers are like a class number for each element. Each element has their own and they're all different. And the number of protons are equal to the number of electrons. Therefore, B is correct.

Isotopes. It's different atoms from a same element that has the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. For example in hydrogen, there's 3 Isotopes for hydrogen. Therefore, C is correct.

Again, proton for the same element is never changed, even if they're different Isotopes. So, E is correct.

Isotopes, again, different elements may have different Isotopes. Some has only 1, others may have a few or more. So, F is correct too.

if the angular momentum of a rigid body is changing, does that mean that there must be a net torque acting on the body?
masha68 [24]

The attribute of any rotating object determined by the product of the moment of inertia and the angular velocity is known as angular momentum.

<h3>What is Angular Momentum?</h3>
  • Without a kickstand, attempting to balance while getting on a bicycle will definitely result in you falling off. However, these wheels gain angular momentum once you begin pedaling. They're going to be resistant to change, which will make balance simpler.
  • The definition of angular momentum is:  any rotating object's characteristic determined by moment of inertia times angular velocity.
  • It is a characteristic of rotating bodies determined by the sum of their moment of inertia and angular velocity. Since it is a vector quantity, the direction must also be taken into account in addition to the magnitude.
  • Angular Momentum Examples : We encounter this property frequently, whether knowingly or unknowingly.
  • The following provides some examples : Ice-skater
  • In order to begin a spin, an ice skater starts with her hands and legs spread widely from the center of her body. She moves her hands and leg closer to her body when she needs to spin with more angular velocity, though.
  • As a result, she conserves angular momentum and spins faster.

Describes the relationship between the spectrum of one atom and the spectrum of another?
krok68 [10]

The relationship between the number of visible spectral lines are identical for atoms .However they have unique wavelengths.

Option B

<u> Explanation:</u>

A spectrum is a range of frequencies or a range of wavelengths. The photon energy of the emitted photon is equal to the difference between two states. For every atom there are quite many electron transitions and each has a energy difference.

This difference in wavelength causes spectrum .As each element emission spectrum is unique because each atom has different energy and causes uniqueness in the emission spectrum . Hence, due to the difference in energy it emits different wavelengths.
