Triss [41]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Divide by 3

Explanation:

In order to estimate the distance traveled by a lightening flash in kilometers, we follow these simple steps:

  1. Make a count of the number of seconds in between the period a flash occur and the thunder accompanied by the lightening flash is heard.
  2. Dive the total number of seconds by 3 to get the distance traveled by the flash. This is because in order to cover 1 km, it roughly takes 3 seconds.

Consider the following True/False statements:
Ainat [17]

Answer:

6) False

7) True

8) False

9) False

10) False

11) True

12) True

13) True

14) True

Explanation:

The spacing between two energy levels in an atom shows the energy difference between them. Clearly, B has a greater value of ∆E compared to A. This implies that the wavelength emitted by B is greater than A while B will emit fewer, more energetic photons.

When atoms jump from lower to higher energy levels, photons are absorbed. The kinetic energy of the incident photon determines the frequency, wavelength and colour of light emitted by the atom.

The energy level to which an atom is excited is determined by the kinetic energy of the incident electron. As the voltage increases, the kinetic energy of the electron increases, the further the atom is from the source of free electrons, the greater the required kinetic energy of free electron. When electrons are excited to higher energy levels, they must return to ground state.

A bomb of mass 6kg initially at rest explodes into two fragments of masses 4kg and2kg respectively. If the greater mass moves wi
Katen [24]

Answer:

v = 10 [m/s]

Explanation:

The largest mass is that of 4 [kg], in this way the momentum can be calculated by means of the product of the mass by velocity.

P=m*v\\

where:

P = momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass = 4 [kg]

v = velocity = 5 [m/s]

Now the momentum:

P=4*5\\P=20[kg*m/s]

This same momentum is equal for the other mass, in this way we can find the velocity.

P=m*v\\20=2*v\\v=10[m/s]
