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.

1. Meiosis has 2 cell divisions but mitosis has only one cell division. Meiosis I is same as mitosis because parent cell produces diploid cells. But the difference between meiosis and mitosis is after the complete process meiosis produces genetically different haploid daughter cells and mitosis produces genetically same diploid daughter cells.

2. The main advantage of the sexual reproduction is It helps to produce offspring which can be well adapted to the environmental conditions due to the genetically differentiations. Hence, there are various types of offspring in the population. But the disadvantage is it requires two parents and it requires more time than asexual reproduction.

3. Advantages of asexual reproduction are it requires only parent, time for the process is relatively low, it produces genetically identical offspring. The main disadvantage is due to the production of genetically identical offspring, the survival rate is low when there is a disaster.

4. The organism can do either sexual reproduction or asexual reproduction to produce offspring. If it is difficult to find a partner to mate, the living being can do asexual reproduction to make offspring in a short period of time. When the organism needs genetically different offspring for survival, they can do sexual reproduction.

You stand on top a building 44 m tall with a water balloon. You drop the water balloon from rest. How fast is the balloon moving

BabaBlast [244]

Y₀ = initial position of the balloon at the top of the building = 44 m

Y = final position of the balloon at halfway down the building = 44/2 = 22 m

a = acceleration of the balloon = - 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial velocity of the balloon = 0 m/s

v = final velocity of the balloon = ?

using the kinematics equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a (Y - Y₀)

inserting the values

v² = 0² + 2 (- 9.8) (22 - 44)

v = 20.78 m/s

A car is traveling with a velocity of 24.4 m/s. It accelerates at a constant rate of 3.2m/s2. If the acceleration lasts for 5.6

larisa86 [58]

Answer: 42.32 ms-1

Explanation:

v = u+ at

v = 24.4 + ( 3.2×5.6)

v = 42.32 ms-1
