An excited atom can return to its ground state by absorbing electromagnetic radiation is false about the electromagnetic radiation.

Option B

Explanation:

In the scope of modern quantum theory, the term Electromagnetic radiation is identified as the movement of photons through space. Almost all the sources of energy that we utilize today such as coal, oil, etc are a product of electromagnetic radiation which was absorbed from the sun millions of years ago.

Various properties of electromagnetic radiations are a directly proportional relationship between the energy and the frequency, Inverse proportionality between frequency and the wavelength, etc. Hence, we can conclude that an "excited atom" can never return to its ground state by assimilating electromagnetic radiation and the 2nd statement is false.

Answer:

The transformation went from a gas to a solid which is a Deposition

Explanation:

Deposition is the phase transition in which gas transforms into solid without passing through the liquid phase. Deposition is a thermodynamic process. The reverse of deposition is sublimation and hence sometimes deposition is called desublimation.

A proton with a velocity in the positive x-direction enters a region where there is a uniform magnetic field B in the positive y

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Negative z-direction.

Explanation:

We need to determine the direction of the magnetic force. Since the velocity of the proton is in the positive x direction, and the magnetic field is in the positive y direction, we know by the vectorial formula $F=q(v\times B)$ (or, alternatively, with the left hand rule) that the magnetic force points in the positive z-direction (also taking into account that the charge is positive), so the electric field should be in the negative z-direction to balance it.

Explain why increasing the temperature of a gas in a closed, rigid container causes the pressure in the container to increase.

exis [7]

The atoms/ particles that are in the gas have gotten energy from the heat, because of that, they zoom around the container, putting pressure on it :) hope it helps :)
