8 0

Answer:

An emission-line spectrum.

Explanation:

The red color observed in the tubes is the emission spectrum of the neon gas, <em>this emission is the energy an atom emits when going from an excited state to a lower one.</em>

Two harmonic waves traveling in opposite directions interfere to produce a standing wave described by y
AnnyKZ [126]

The wavelength of the interfering waves is 3.14 m.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

The general equation of a standing wave is given by:

y = 2A sin (kx) cos (ωt)                            ......(1)

The given equation represents the standing wave produced by the interference of two harmonic waves:

y = 3 sin (2x) cos 5t                                .......(2)

Comparing equations (1) and (2):

k = 2

We know that,

k = 2π/λ

λ = 2π/k

λ = 2 (3.14)/ 2

λ = 3.14 m

Therefore, the wavelength of the interfering waves is 3.14 m.

I understand the question you are looking for is this:

Two harmonic waves traveling in opposite directions interfere to produce a standing wave described by y = 3 sin (2x) cos 5t where x is in m and t is in s. What is the wavelength of the interfering waves?

What device produces light by running an electric current through a gas
Andrej [43]

Answer:

fluorescent bulb

Explanation:

A fluorescent bulb is what produces light.

It produces light by passing electric current through a gas to

A fluorescent lamp, is a low-pressure mercury vapor and a gas-discharge lamp that uses fluorescence to produce visible light. like the ones we see.  An electric current in the gas excites mercury vapor, and that produces a short wave ultraviolet light and well that causes a phosphor coating on the inside of the lamp to glow. i tried making this sound as simple as possible.

i hope this really helps you !! thanks this and mark this as brainliest !!!

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 6s to 12 m/s in a period of 2 s. What is acceleration
ElenaW [278]

As we know that acceleration is given as

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

here we know that

v_i = 6 m/s

v_f = 12 m/s

\Delta t = 2 s

now we will have

a = \frac{12 - 6}{2}

a = 3 m/s^2

so acceleration will be 3 m/s^2

A portable DVD player requires six 1.5-volt batteries to operate. If the resistance in the circuit is 7.2 ohms, what is the curr
Dafna1 [17]

Answer: The current required will be of 1.25 Ampere.

Explanation:

Voltage of one battery= 1.5 Volts

Voltage required by DVD player to operate, V = 6 × 1.5 = 9 Volts

Resistance offered by the device, R =  7.2 Ohms

V = IR (Ohm's law)

I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{9}{7.2}=1.25 ampere

The current required will be of 1.25 Ampere.
