An incandescent bulb becomes hotter than a fluorescent bulb when turned on because in a regular incandescent bulb, there is tungsten wire where electricity is converts into heat. A regular incandescent light bulb requires 4 times more energy than a fluorescent bulb in order to produce the same amount of light. The conversion is such that for a 75-watt bulb, temperature get raised to approximately 2000 K. For such a high temperature, the radiating energy from the wire have some visible light. In such bulbs, 90% of the electricity get consumed in producing heat and only 10% produces light thus, they are not much efficient source of light.
On the other hand, fluorescent bulbs produce light with less amount of heat. In them, 40% of electricity is consumed in producing light and 60% in heat which is very less as compared to heat produced by a incandescent bulb. This is because when it get turned on, mercury atoms inside the bulb collides with electrons and produce UV light which is then converted into visible light using thin layer of phosphor power present inside the bulb. This produces low amount of heat thus, the bulb stays cooler, the bigger size of bulb also helps in dispersing heat.
Therefore, a fluorescent light bulb is not as hot as an incandescent light bulb.
Answer:
2-3-1-4
Explanation:
The astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus did not have a theory about the Earth revolving around the sun until he got into astronomy and began to study the patterns of the sun and the moon as well as reading other entries from previous astronomers. You can pretty much guess from there, he had to have the theory before proving it etc.
Answer:
see explanation below
Explanation:
Question is incomplete, so in picture 1, you have a sample of this question with the missing data.
Now, in general terms, the absorbance of a substance can be calculated using the beer's law which is the following:
A = εlc
Where:
ε: molar absortivity
l: distance of the light in solution
c: concentration of solution
However, in this case, we have a plot line and a equation for this plot, so all we have to do is replace the given data into the equation and solve for x, which is the concentration.
the equation according to the plot is:
A = 15200c - 0.018
So solving for C for an absorbance of 0.25 is:
0.25 = 15200c - 0.018
0.25 + 0.018 = 15200c
0.268 = 15200c
c = 0.268/15200
c = 1.76x10⁻⁵ M
Answer:
3.79 x 10²⁴atoms
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Number moles of lead = 6.3moles
Unknown:
Number of atoms = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem,
1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ atoms
6.3 mole of Pb will contain 6.3 x 6.02 x 10²³ = 3.79 x 10²⁴atoms
