A typical stellar spectrum (a plot of intensity versus wavelength) includes a number of deep indentations in which the intensity

abruptly falls and then rises. These deep indentations are called ____ lines.

Answer:

They are called absorption lines

Explanation:

Absorption lines are defined as dark lines or lines having reduced intensity, on an ongoing spectrum. A typical example is noticed in the spectra of stars, where gas existing in the outer layers of the star absorbs some of the light from the underlying thermal blackbody spectrum.

What happens when you change the number of electrons in an atom
aalyn [17]
<h2>Answer: It becomes an Ion </h2>

When an atom has gained or lost electrons (negative charge), it becomes an ion.

In this sense:

<h2>Ions are atoms that have <u>gained or lost</u> electrons in their electronic cortex. </h2><h2> </h2>

If a neutral atom <u>loses electrons</u>, it remains with an excess of positive charge and transforms into a positive ion or <u>cation</u>, whereas if a neutral atom <u>gains electrons</u>, it acquires an excess of negative charge and transforms into a negative ion or <u>anion</u>.

It is then how ions form bonds with other atoms differently depending on the number of electrons they have.

Which of the following statements is/are true? Check all that apply. A nonconservative force permits a two-way conversion betwee
saul85 [17]

Answer:

A conservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.

The work done by a nonconservative force depends on the path taken.

A potential energy function can be specified for a conservative force.

Explanation:

A conservative force is defined as a force whose work done does not depend on the path taken, but only on the initial and final position of motion.

This means that for a conservative force, it is possible to defined a potential energy function U which depends only on the position of the object. An example of conservative force is gravity: the gravitational potential energy of an object, in fact, depends only on its position in the field, not on the path taken.

This behaviour also implies that when an object moves from A to B and then back from B to A, the potential energy gained (or lost) moving from A to B is lost (or re-gained) when moving from B to A. This means that the total mechanical energy (sum of kinetic energy and potential energy) of the object is conserved, and therefore there is a constant conversion between potential and kinetic energy during the motion.

A non-conservative force instead does not show this properties, as the work done by it depends on the path taken, and therefore it is not possible to define a potential energy function. An example of non-conservative force is friction.

According to what we wrote above, therefore, the only correct statements are:

A conservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.

The work done by a nonconservative force depends on the path taken.

A potential energy function can be specified for a conservative force.

The electric-power industry is interested in finding a way to store electric energy during times of low demand for use during pe
Stolb23 [73]

Answer: True

Explanation: Inductors are similar to resistors, due to the fact that they offer resistance to current flow, but Inductors are different from resistors in that, while resistors loss electric energy in a circuit in the form of heat, an inductor stores that energy in the form of a magnetic field.

As current passes through an inductor overtime it tends to store current in the form of magnetic field. Therefore the electric-power industry can store energy in large Inductors.

catapult’s lever holds a cannonball. The lever is attached to a tightly held rope. When the rope is released, the lever springs
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Potential energy

Explanation:

Before release, the catapult has potential energy stored in a tension of torsion device in it. Normally a flexible bow like object that could be made of wood or of metal.
