Answer: The statement that correctly identified the difference between laws and theories is
(LAWS describe phenomena (things happening in nature), while THEORIES explain why phenomena exist.)
Explanation:
LAW in the field of natural sciences is defined as a statement which describes a remarkable event( things happening in nature) after repeated close observations.
Example of law in natural science includes:
--> law of conservation of mass
--> law of conservation of energy
THEORY in the field of natural sciences is the explanation of these remarkable events after repeated observations. This helps in bringing together facts and hypothesis (ideas that can be tested with further scientific observations).
Example of theory includes:
--> kinetic theory of matter
--> Dalton's atomic theory.
Answer:
The wavelength of the emitted photon is 413.6 nm
Explanation:
Given;
energy of the emitted photon, E = 3 eV = 3 x 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
speed of light, c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
The energy of the emitted photon is given by;
E = hf
where;
h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J/s
f is the frequency of the light = c / λ
λ is the wavelength
Therefore, the wavelength of the emitted photon is 413.6 nm
Answer:
Mass of the second block is 1.4 kg
Explanation:
When a weight (mg) is displaced from its equilibrium position in a spring mass system, a restoring force (kx) will act on the weight.
so, mg = -kx
where, k is a constant
Mass of block () = 0.70 kg
For one spring mass system,
For the two spring mass system,
divide equation 2 by 1
on further rearranging,
So, mass of the second block is 1.4 kg.
Answer: C) heat
Explanation: As law of conservation of energy applies to all the systems, which says the energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it can only be converted from one form to another.
The light bulb converts electrical energy into light and heat energy.
A) chemical energy is stored in the bonds.
B) Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation.
D) nuclear energy is stored in the nucleus of the atom.
