B. Earth’s outer surface is cooler than its interior layers.

Explanation:

  • The option given above is showing us that the temperature in the interior of the earth is higher than the temperature in the outer layer.
  • There is travel of heat from the inner core of the earth to the earth's crust. Due to the loss of heat when it reaches the outer layer, there arises a temperature difference.
  • The heat loss is due to the absorption of heat during its transfer. Hence, option B is the answer.

kifflom [539]

Answer:

40sec

Explanation:

Data

Work = 440 J

Power= 11watt

time = ?

Power = work done/time

===> time = work done/power

= 440/11

= 40sec

The balmer series is formed by electron transitions in hydrogen that
RSB [31]

Answer:

The Balmer series refers to the spectral lines of hydrogen, associated to the emission of photons when an electron in the hydrogen atom jumps from a level n \geq 3 to the level n=2.

The wavelength associated to each spectral line of the Balmer series is given by:

\frac{1}{\lambda}=R_H (\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{n^2})

where R_H is the Rydberg constant for hydrogen, and where n is the initial level of the electron that jumps to the level n = 2.

The first few spectral lines associated to this series are withing the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, and their wavelengths are:

656 nm (red, corresponding to the transition 3 \rightarrow 2)

486 nm (green, 4 \rightarrow 2)

434 nm (blue, 5 \rightarrow 2)

410 nm (violet, 6 \rightarrow 2)

All the following lines lie in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum. The limit of the Balmer series, corresponding to the transition \infty \rightarrow 2, is at 364.6 nm.

Two children are riding on a merry-go-round that is rotating with a constant angular speed. Abbie is one meter from the center o
klio [65]

Answer:

The acceleration of Abbie is half of the Zak's.

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration of an object on a circular path is given by :

a=r\omega^2

Two children are riding on a merry-go-round that is rotating with a constant angular speed. Let r_1 is distance of Abbie from the merry-go-round and r_2 is distance of Zak's from the merry-go-round. Acceleration of Abbie is :

a_1=r_1\omega^2 ...... (1)

r_1=1\ m

Acceleration of Zak's is :

a_2=r_2\omega^2 .......(2)

r_2=2\ m

Dividing equation (1) and (2) we get :

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{r_1}{r_2}\\\\\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\a_1=\dfrac{a_2}{2}

So, the acceleration of Abbie is half of the Zak's.
