Answer:

10

Explanation:

 Lets say that a,b,c,d,e are the five allowed energy states in order of decreasing energy. Then the number of possible different spectral lines comes from the electron dropping from a high state to a lower state. So, they will do so in following ways:

a - b

a - c

a - d

a- e

b - c

b - d

b- e

c - d

c- e

d- e

Ans- Ten different possible energy jumps giving six different colors or lines in the spectrum.

Describe how the three methods of thermal energy transfer may take place within the iguana’s enclosure.
sasho [114]

Answer:

Heat can travel from one place to another in three ways: Conduction, Convection and Radiation. Both conduction and convection require matter to transfer heat.  Conduction is the transfer of heat between substances that are in direct contact with each other. Thermal energy is transferred from hot places to cold places by convection. Radiation is a method of heat transfer that does not rely upon any contact between the heat source and the heated object as is the case with conduction and convection. Heat can be transmitted through empty space by thermal radiation often called infrared radiation.

When a rocket is traveling toward a mountain at 100 m/s, the sound waves from this rocket's engine approach the mountain at spee
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The initial speed of the rocket is  v_i = 100 m/s

    The speed of the rocket engine sound is V

    The final speed of the rocket is  v_f = 200 \ m/s

The speed of the sound at v_f would still remain V this because the speed of sound wave is constant and is not dependent on the speed of the observer(The mountain ) or the speed of the source (The rocket ).

  A clear example when  lightning strikes you will first see (that is because it travels at  the speed of light which is greater than the speed of sound) but it would take some time before you hear the sound of the   lightning

Here we see that the speed of the lightning(speed of sound) does not affect the speed of the sound it generates

HI!

Conventional vehicles use gasoline or diesel to power an internal combustion engine. Hybrids also use an internal combustion engine—and can be fueled like normal cars—but have an electric motor and battery, and can be partially or wholly powered by electricity. Also pollute less and save the drivers money.

Good Day.

A radio station's channel, such as 100.7 fm or 92.3 fm, is actually its frequency in megahertz (mhz), where 1mhz=106 hz and 1hz=
AURORKA [14]
The frequency of the radio station is
f=88.7 fm= 88.7 MHz = 88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz

For radio waves (which are electromagnetic waves), the relationship between frequency f and wavelength \lambda is
\lambda= \frac{c}{f}
where c is the speed of light. Substituting the frequency of the radio station, we find the wavelength:
\lambda= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz}=3.38 m
