Whose atomic theory explains how atoms emit and absorb light

1 answer:

5 0

Darwin's atomic theory which states that atoms do not emit or absorb energy so far as they remain in allowable orbits or ground states.It also states that a spectra is produced when an electron moves to a lower energy level thereby releasing energy.

What eccentricity value results in a circular orbit?

Oxana [17]

Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

Given the equation of an ellipse:

$\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$

The eccentrity of an ellipse is given by:

$e=\sqrt{1-\frac{b^2}{a^2}}$

For a circle, we have

$a=b$

Therefore the eccentricity of a circle is

$e=\sqrt{1-\frac{1^2}{1^2}}=0$

Sound waves are a- Transverse b- Longitudinal c- Transverse and longitudinal

Katen [24]

Answer:

Sound waves are longitudinal in nature.

Explanation:

There are many types of waves like transverse, longitudinal, electromagnetic wave etc.

Sound waves are longitudinal in nature. In longitudinal type of wave, the medium particles moves parallel to the propagation of the wave. This type of waves move in the form of compression and rarefaction.

In compression, the particle density at a point is very less while in rarefaction, the particle density at a point is very high.

So, the correct option is (b) "longitudinal wave".

A grey hound can run about 40/mph is it velocity,acceleration, or speed

loris [4]

Answer: Speed

Explanation:

Speed is the time it takes something to travel a certain distance. Accelaration is the rate at which an object's speed changes. Velocity is a vector of the object's speed and direction.

A brick is dropped from a big scaffold. What is its velocity after 4.0s?

Flura [38]

The velocity of the brick is 39.2 m/s downward

Explanation:

The motion of the brick is a free fall motion, since the object is affected only by the force of gravity. Therefore, it has a uniformly accelerated motion towards the ground, with constant acceleration of $g=9.8 m/s^2$ .
