The early workers in spectroscopy (Fraunhofer with the solar spectrum, Bunsen and Kirchhoff with laboratory spectra) discovered

what very significant fact about the spectra produced by hot gases, such as elements heated in a flame?

The hot gases produce their own characteristic pattern of spectral lines, which remain fixed as the temperature increases moderately.

<h3><u>Explanation: </u></h3>

A continuous light spectrum emitted by excited atoms of a hot gas with dark spaces in between due to scattered light of specific wavelengths is termed as an atomic spectrum. A hot gas has excited electrons and produces an emission spectrum; the scattered light forming dark bands are called spectral lines.

Fraunhofer closely observed sunlight by expanding the spectrum and a huge number of dark spectral lines were seen.  "Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff" discovered that when certain chemicals were burnt using a Bunsen burner, atomic spectra with spectral lines were seen. Atomic spectral pattern is thus a unique characteristic of any gas and can be used to independently identify presence of elements.

The spectrum change does not depend greatly on increasing temperatures and hence no significant change is observed in the emitted spectrum with moderate increase in temperature.

a 2kg object is moving horizontally with a speed of 4 m/s.how much net force is required to keep the object moving at this speed
Elza [17]
If the object is moving in a straight line with constant speed,
that's a description of " acceleration = zero ".

Zero acceleration means zero net force on the object.

NO net force is 'required' to keep an object moving in a straight line
at constant speed.  In fact, if there IS any net force on the object,
then either its speed or its direction MUST change ... there's no way
to avoid it.

None of this depends on the object's mass, or on the speed or direction
of its motion.

What was also changed in the "Levers" lab when the position of the fulcrum was changed?
erastova [34]

Effort force

Explanation:

When the potion of fulcrum and weight is changed, the mechanical advantage changes.Increasing the distance between the fulcrum and the effort, there is a proportion increase in effort required to lift a load.The ration of the distance from the fulcrum to the position of input and output application gives the mechanical advantage in levers when losses due to friction are not considered.

A plane traveled west for 4.0 hours and covered a distance of 4,400 meters what’s the velocity
tatuchka [14]

0.31m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Time of travel = 4hrs = 4 x 60 x 60 = 14400s

Displacement  = 4400m due west

Unknown:

Velocity = ?

Solution:

Velocity is defined as the displacement  per unit of time. It is expressed in m/s or km/hr:

     Velocity =  \frac{displacement}{time}

     Velocity =   \frac{4400}{14400} = 0.31m/s
