What do the different colors in a line spectrum represent? why are the spectra for each element unique?

1 answer:

8 0

They typically represents different wavelengths of element due to its energy emission in the form of visible light. When an electron of that particular element move from a higher energy level down to a lower energy level, it gives off energy in the form of photon emission. Atom of a certain element has a unique electron arrangement thus it can considered that particular element's spectrum is unique.

A stereo speaker is rated at P1000 = 52 W of output at 1000 Hz. At 20 Hz, the sound intensity level LaTeX: \betaβ decreases by 1

baherus [9]

Answer:

The value of the power is $P_c = 38.55 \ W$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The power rating $P_{1000} =P_b= 52 \ W$

The frequency is $f = 1000 \ Hz$

The frequency at which the sound intensity decreases $f_k = 20 \ Hz$

The decrease in intensity is by $\beta = 1.3 dB$

Generally the initial intensity of the speaker is mathematically represented as

$\beta_1 = 10 log_{10} [\frac{P_b}{P_a} ]$

Generally the intensity of the speaker after it has been decreased is

$\beta_2 = 10 log_{10} [\frac{P_c}{P_a} ]$

$\beta_1-\beta_2 = 10 log_{10} [\frac{P_c}{P_a} ]- 10 log_{10} [\frac{P_b}{P_a} ]$

=> $\beta = 10 log_{10} [\frac{P_c}{P_a} ]- 10 log_{10} [\frac{P_b}{P_a} ]= 1.3$

=> $\beta =10log_{10} [\frac{\frac{P_b}{P_a}}{\frac{P_c}{P_a}} ] = 1.3$

=> $\beta =10log_{10} [\frac{P_b}{P_c} ] = 1.3$

=> $10log_{10} [\frac{P_b}{P_c} ] = 1.3$

=> $log_{10} [\frac{P_b}{P_c} ] = 0.13$

taking atilog of both sides

$[\frac{P_b}{P_c} ] = 10^{0.13}$

=> $[\frac{52}{P_c} ] = 10^{0.13}$

=> $P_c = \frac{52}{1.34896}$

=> $P_c = 38.55 \ W$

How will gravitational wave discovery help the scientists in their quest to fully understand gravity?

irina [24]

<span>The heavier the body is, the stronger its gravitational pull. Just like earth, we feel gravitational pull because we are attracted to earth and so is the moon. Also, the sun is heavier than the earth and therefore, we are attracted to the sun because of its gravitational pull. When the earth revolves around the sun, both of them releases gravitational waves. Gravitational waves are ripples of waves travelling outward from the source. The more massive the orbit of two bodies, the more it emits gravitational wave. And everything around it that is near within the wave experiences a ‘pull’ toward the orbiting bodies. The advantages we get when we can measure gravitational waves are; one, we can measure the activity between two bodies in orbit in the universe, two, scientist can estimate the merging of two bodies in the universe every 15 minutes by using LIGO and three, we can know the behavior of other bodies that we did not know exist.</span>
