What happens to an object as it absorbs radiant energy?

What absorbs radiant energy?Radiant energy is used for radiant heating. It can be generated electrically by infrared lamps, or can be absorbed from sunlight and used to heat water. The heat energy is emitted from a warm element (floor, wall, overhead panel) and warms people and other objects in rooms rather than directly heating the air.

A ball is thrown vertically upward from the top of a building 80 feet tall with an initial velocity of 64 feet per second. The d

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

a) $t=6.37s$

b) $t=3.3333s$

Explanation:

The knowable variables are the initial hight and initial velocity

$s_{o}=80ft$

$v_{os}=64ft/s$

The equation that describes the motion of the ball is:

$s=80+64t-16t^{2}$

If we want to know the time that takes the ball to hit the ground, we need to calculate it by doing s=0 that is the final hight.

$0=80+64t-12t^{2}$

a) Solving for t, we are going to have two answers

$t=\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}$

a=-16

b=64

c=80

$t=-1.045 s$ or $t=6.378s$

Since time can not be negative the answer is t=6.378s

b) To find the time that takes the ball to pass the top of the building on its way down, we must find how much does it move too

First of all, we need to find the maximum hight and how much time does it take to reach it:

$v_{y}=v_{o}+gt$

at maximum point the velocity is 0

$0=64-32.2t$

Solving for t

$t=1.9875 s$

Now, we must know how much distance does it take to reach maximum point

$s=0+64t-16t^{2} =64(1.9875)-12(1.9875)^{2} =80ft$

So, the ball pass the top of the building on its way down at 160 ft

$160=80+64t-16t^{2}$

Solving for t

$t=2s$ or $t=3.333s$

Since the time that the ball reaches maximum point is almost t=2s that answer can not be possible, so the answer is t=3.333s for the ball to go up and down, passing the top of the building

One way in which elements differ from each other is the structure of the electron cloud in each element’s atoms. In an electron

Brums [2.3K]

The electron cloud is split up in 3 areas.

1) Inner Electron Cloud
2) Outer Electron Cloud
3) Valence Electrons

Your inner cloud is the electrons CLOSEST to the nucleus.
Your outer cloud is the electrons in the MIDDLE of the Inner and Valence.
Your valence electrons are the OUTER LAYER of electrons. These electrons are important to bonding, and also are what decide where on the periodic table of elements. For example:

197
Au
79

This element is GOLD. It has 1 valence, therefor it is where it is in the period. Ionization could change this number however.
