Whenever possible, these types of power plants should be built because they generate virtually no pollution. (2 points)

1 answer:

8 0

Wind farms, solar collectors, and nuclear power plants generate no pollution.

But wind farms make noise, wind and solar are both hazardous to birds, and there's no known means of disposing of nuclear plant waste that's completely safe.

The joule is an example of units of work. Which of the following is not a valid unit of work? ft-lb (kg-m2)/s2 inch-ton lb/s2

Dahasolnce [82]

The "lb/s² " is not a valid unit of work.

Each of the others is (a unit of force) x (a unit of distance) which is pretty much the definition of work.

What happens when an electron returns to its ground state from its excited state

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer: Energy is released by the electron in the form of light

Explanation:

Let's start by explaining that each atom in its natural state has a specific structure of its energy levels. Where the lowest energy level is called the ground state.

So, when an atom is in its ground state, its electrons fill the lower energy orbitals completely before they begin to occupy higher energy orbitals.

Then, when an atom is excited, it means that it has left its ground state (in which each electron occupies its place in its orbit, around the nucleus), when this happens some electron jumps out of the orbit it occupied in its fundamental state to an outer orbit, further away from the nucleus and then return to the ground state, emitting in the form of light the energy received.

To understand it better:

An excited electron is an unstable electron, and when passing from one orbit to another, it produces light of a specific wavelength (color) that depends on the amount of energy the electron loses.
