What absorbs radiant energy?<span>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.</span>

If the ultraviolet photon has a wavelength of 249 nm and one of the photons emitted by the fluorescent material has a wavelength
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

601 nm

Explanation:

Energy of photon having wavelength of λ nm

= \frac{1244}{\lambda}eV

Energy of 249 nm photon

=\frac{1244}{249}

=4.996 eV

Similarly energy of 425nm photon

=\frac{1244}{425}

=2.927 eV

Difference = 2.069 eV.

This energy will give rise to another photon whose wavelength will be

λ = \frac{1244}{2.069}

= 601 nm.

Choose the correct statement of Kirchhoff's voltage law.
frutty [35]

Answer:

A) If one travels around a closed path adding the voltages for which one enters the negative reference and subtracting the voltages for which one enters the positive reference, the total is zero.

Explanation:

Kirchhoff's voltage law deals with the conservation of energy when the current flows in a closed-loop path.

It states that the algebraic sum of the voltages around any closed loop in a circuit is always zero.

In other words, the algebraic sum of all the potential differences through a loop must be equal to zero.

A warm hockey puck has a coefficient of restitution of 0.50, while a frozen hockey puck has a coefficient of restitution of only
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

the required height is 0.2449 m only

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Initial height = 2m

so speed of the puck before hitting the ground will be;

u² = 2gh

Initial speed u_ball = √2gh

u_ball = √( 2 × 9.8 × 2 )

u_ball =  √39.2

u_ball = 6.26 m/s

given that; FOR THE FROZEN PUCK, coefficient of restitution = 0.35 only

R = - (v_ball - v_ground / u_ball - u_ ground)

so

0.35 = - (v_ball - 0 / 6.26 - 0)

0.35 = -v_ball / - 6.26

-v_ball = 0.35 × (- 6.26)

-v_ball = -2.191 m/s

v_ball = 2.191 m/s

to get the height;

v² = 2gh

h = v² / 2g

we substitute

h = (2.191)² / 2×9.8

h = 4.800481 / 19.6

h = 0.2449 m

Therefore, the required height is 0.2449 m only

A feather is dropped onto the surface of the moon. How far will the feather have fallen if it reaches in 9.00 seconds? Given: g
Hitman42 [59]
The distance traveled while accelerating from rest is

                           D  =  1/2 a t²    .

For this problem, we shall totally ignore air resistance.
We do so completely without any reservation or guilt,
because we know that there is no air on the moon.

                     D  =  (1/2) · (1.6 m/s²) · (9 sec)²

                         =       (0.8 m/s²) · (81 s²)

                         =        (0.8 · 81) m

                         =            64.8 meters  .

(That's about 213 feet !  The astronaut must have dropped the feather
from his spacecraft while he was aloft ... either just before touchdown
or just after liftoff.)
