7 0

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.

How could I tell if an egg is hard boiled or raw explain using Newton's law of motion
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton's 2 nd law of motion tells that when equal torque is applied on object having higher moment of inertia , it will rotate slower .

Moment of inertia of boiled egg is higher because the whole egg rotates as s solid unit . Hence it will rotate slower or it rolls slower on an inclined surface .

In this way by applying Newton's law , we can identify raw or boiled egg .

If I walk 15 minutes miles north and then 20 miles South:
Anna71 [15]

\mathfrak{\huge{\orange{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Kinematics.

1.) Distance travelled = 15+20 = 35 miles.

Ai the total distance covered is 35 miles.

2.) Displacement is the shortest distance from the initial point to the final point.

here it's ==> 20-15 = 5 miles

hence, displacement = 5 miles
