Lightning rods provide low resistance paths to the ground that’ll be used to conduct the enormous electrical currents when lightning strikes happen. So the system will attempt to carry the harmful electrical current away from it and safely to ground. The system will have the ability to handle enormous electrical currents associated with the lightning strikes, if they contact a material that isn’t a good conductor then the material will suffer massive heat damage. So the lightning rod system is considered the best conductor & this allows the current to flow to the ground without causing any massive heat damage.

Describes the relationship between the spectrum of one atom and the spectrum of another?

krok68 [10]

The relationship between the number of visible spectral lines are identical for atoms .However they have unique wavelengths.

Option B

<u> Explanation:</u>

A spectrum is a range of frequencies or a range of wavelengths. The photon energy of the emitted photon is equal to the difference between two states. For every atom there are quite many electron transitions and each has a energy difference.

This difference in wavelength causes spectrum .As each element emission spectrum is unique because each atom has different energy and causes uniqueness in the emission spectrum . Hence, due to the difference in energy it emits different wavelengths.

The pressure of a gas is reduced from 1200.0 mm hg to 850.0 mm hg as the volume of its container is increased by moving a piston

Kamila [148]

From gas laws:
$\frac{PV}{T} = Constant$

Therefore,
$\frac{ P_{1} V_{1} }{ T_{1} } = \frac{ P_{2} V_{2} }{ T_{2} }$

P1 = 1200 mm
V1 = 85 ml
T1 = 90°C = 363.15 K
P2 = 850 mm
V2 = 350 ml
T2 = ?

Substituting;
$T_{2} = \frac{ P_{2} V_{2} T_{1} }{ P^{1} V^{1} } = \frac{850*350*363.15}{1200*85} = 1059.19 K$ = 786.04 °C
