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 ball is kicked from level ground at an angle 60° with initial velocity 10 m/s. The distance the ball travels, in meters, is:
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

<em>the ball travels a distance of 8.84 m</em>

Explanation:

Range: Range is defined as the horizontal distance from the point of projection to the point where the projectile hits the projection plane again.

R = (U²sin2∅)/g.............................. Equation 1

Where R = range, U = initial velocity, ∅ = angle of projection, g = acceleration due to gravity.

<em>Given: U = 10 m/s, ∅ = 60°</em>

<em>Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²</em>

Substituting these values into equation 1

R = [10²×sin(2×60)]/9.8

R = (100sin120)/9.8

R = 100×0.8660/9.8

R = 86.60/9.8

R = 8.84 m

<em>Therefore the ball travels a distance of 8.84 m</em>
