Answer:

<h2>d) Light emitted by an element produces a unique identifying spectrum.</h2>

Explanation:

Every atom in the existence is formed by protons, neutrons and electrons. These electrons surround the nucleus in specific arrangements called orbitals, you can imagine it like a planetary system. The fact is that each orbital has an specific amount of energy, and electrons cannot go up or down these orbitals if the energy isn't change.

In addition, when an atom absorbs energy, the electrons inside can jump to a higher orbital temporarily and then go back to its natural position. However, it happens the opposite effect if an atom ejects energy, the electrons jump to a lower orbital, expelling energy in form of electromagnetic waves, and depending on the length of those waves, a color is seen. This electron's jumps happen all the time, and each material have a specific behaviour, which gives specific electromagnetic waves, specific colors, and the formation of those colors is what is called a spectrum, that's why is unique.

Therefore, the correct answer is d.

Answer:

correct answer is option d (Light emitted by an element produces a unique identifying spectrum.)

Explanation:

Each element has different atomic number and atoms of an element can radiate a certain amount of energy. Different elements have different atomic spectrum and it can be used to determine the composition of a material.

When atoms are excited to higher energy state after some time they came back to lower state by emitting their excess energy in the form of light. This light has certain wavelength. This emitted light can be seen as a series of different colored lines and between two colored lines there is a dark space. This series of colored lines is called a line spectra or atomic spectra.

iris [78.8K]
(a) The net flux through the coil is zero.
In fact, the magnetic field generated by the wire forms concentric circles around the wire. The wire is placed along the diameter of the coil, so we can imagine as it divides the  coil into two emisphere. Therefore, the magnetic field of the wire is perpendicular to the plane of the coil, but the direction of the field is opposite in the two emispheres. Since the two emispheres have same area, then the magnetic fluxes in the two emispheres are equal but opposite in sign, and so they cancel out when summing them together to find the net flux.

(b) If the wire passes through the center of the coil but it is perpendicular to the plane of the wire, the net flux through the coil is still zero.
In fact, the magnetic field generated by the wire forms concentric lines around the wire, so it is parallel to the plane of the coil. But the flux is equal to
\Phi = BA \cos \theta
where \theta is the angle between the direction of the magnetic field and the perpendicular to the plane of the coil, so in this case \theta=90^{\circ} and so the cosine is zero, therefore the net flux is zero.

A 94 g particle undergoes SHM with an amplitude of 8.3 mm, a maximum acceleration of magnitude 7.8 x 103 m/s2, and an unknown ph
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

a) T = 6.49*10^-3 s

b) v = 8 m/s

c) E = 3 J

d) F = 733 N

e) F = 366.5 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of particle, m = 94 g = 0.094 kg

Amplitude of the particle, A = 8.3 mm = 8.3*10^-3 m

Maximum acceleration of particle, a = 7.8*10^3 m/s²

the equation describing Simple Harmonic Motion is given as

x = A cos (wt +φ)

To fond the acceleration of this relationship, we would have to integrate. Twice, the first would be a Velocity, and the second acceleration that we need.

Velocity = dx/dt = -Aw sin(wt + φ)

Acceleration = d²x/dt = -Aw² cos(wt + φ)

From the question, we were given, magnitude of acceleration to be 7.8*10^3 m/s²

Aw² = 7.8*10^3

w² = 7.8*10^3 / A

w² = 7.8*10^3 / 8.3*10^-3

w² = 939759

w = √939759

w = 969

Recall, T = 2π/w, so that

T = (2 * 3.142) / 969

T = 6.49*10^-3 s

Maximum speed = Aw

Maximum speed = 8.3*10^-3 * 969

Maximum speed = 8.0 m/s

Total mechanical energy oscillator =

mgx + 1/2mx² =

1/2mv(max)² =

1/2 * 0.094 * 8² =

3 J

Maximum displacement

x = A cos(wt + φ)

For x to be maximum here, then cos(wt + φ) Must be equal to 1

Acceleration = d²x/dt² = -Aw²

And force = mass * acceleration

Force = 0.094 * 7.8*10^3

Force = 733 N

x = A cos(wt + φ), where cos(wt + φ) = 1/2

d²x/dt² = -Aw² * 1/2

d²x/dt² = 733 * 0.5

= 366.5 N
