From laboratory measurements, we know that a particular spectral line formed by hydrogen appears at a wavelength of 486.1 nanome

ters (nm). The spectrum of a particular star shows the same hydrogen line appearing at a wavelength of 486.0 nm. What can we conclude?

Answer:

The source of the hydrogen is coming towards us.

Explanation:

The wavelength of the hydrogen is decreasing as it goes from 486.1 nm to 486.0 nm.

<u>The wavelength of a wave is directly proportional to the distance between the observer and the object.</u>

For example, when the observer is far from the source, the observer will observe a longer wavelength which corresponds to red color if it is in the visible region.

<u>As the wavelength is decreasing that means that the hydrogen particle ( source may be a star) is coming towards the observer.</u>

Thus, we can conclude that the source of the hydrogen is coming towards us.

(there are 2 quetions) how is heat being transfered in:
alekssr [168]

Answer:

  1. Heat energy is transferred from homes by conduction through the walls, floor, roof and windows. It is also transferred from homes by convection. For example, cold air can enter the house through gaps in doors and windows, and convection currents can transfer heat energy in the loft to the roof tiles.
  2. Convection is the heat transfer due to the movement of a fluid, such as a gas or liquid, and carries heat energy away from the source of heat. When a substance is heated, it causes its particles to vibrate more. The more vibration, the more space they will take up and the less dense they will become.

I really hope it helps! ❤

4.One rubber tire can generate about250,000 BTUS (1BTU=.0003KW ) when it is burned. The average American home consumes about 10,
jekas [21]

Answer:

The number of tires required to power ten homes for one year is approximately 2,730 tires

Explanation:

The given information are;

The energy generated by burning one rubber tire = 250,000 BTUs

1 BTU = 0.0003 kW

The amount of energy consumed by the average American home = 10,000 kWh

Therefore, the amount of energy generated by burning one tire in kW can be found as follows;

The energy generated by burning one rubber tire = 250,000 BTUs

1 BTU = 0.0003 kW

∴ 1 BTU × 250,000 = 250,000 BTUs = 0.0003 kW × 250,000 = 75 kW

We note that 250,000 BTUs is equivalent to 263764 kJ

1 kWh is equivalent to 3600 kJ

10,000 kWh = 10,000 × 3600 = 36,000,000 kJ

The energy requirement for ten homes  for one year = 10 × 36,000,000 kJ = 360,000,000 kJ

At 50% efficiency, the energy produced per tire = 0.5 × 263764 kJ = 131,882 kJ

The electrical energy produced per tire = 131,882 kJ/tire

The number of tires required to power ten homes for one year = 360,000,000 kJ/  131,882 kJ/tire = 2,729.71293  ≈2,730 tires

The number of tires required to power ten homes  ≈2,730 tires.
