Answer:

Height, h = 16.67 m

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of a squirrel is 0.765 kg.

He jumps off the tree and hits the ground with 125 joules of energy.

It is required to find the height up on the tree the squirrel was when it jumped.

The energy possessed by the squirrel is called its gravitational potential energy. It can be given by :

E=mgh

h is height up on the tree the squirrel was when it jumped

h=\dfrac{E}{mg}\\\\h=\dfrac{125\ J}{0.765\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2}\\\\h=16.67\ m

So, the squirrel will go to a height of 16.67 m.

From part a, you know that surface temperature is a stellar property that we infer indirectly. What must we measure directly so
trasher [3.6K]

We need to directly measure the spectral type in order to determine the surface temperature of a star.

<h3>How do you find the properties of a star?</h3>

Astronomers can determine the temperature of a star by looking at its color and spectrum. The apparent brightness of a star describes how luminous it looks to us. The brightness of a star tells us how bright it really is. The luminance can be determined using both the perceived brightness and the distance.

A star's luminosity, or the total amount of energy it emits each second, is determined by two factors: The stellar photosphere's "Effective Temperature," T. the star's total surface area, which is influenced by its radius, R.

Because it controls how much fuel a star has and how quickly it burns it, a star's mass is its most fundamental characteristic. The majority of a star's life is spent burning hydrogen into helium in its core, which generates energy. The star needs to achieve a balance between gravity and outward pressure in order to continue to be "alive."

In the box provided explain why living organisms contain more hydrogen atoms than any other atoms
leva [86]

Answer:it is due to present of water amount in our body. Our body consists 70%of water and 1/3of oxygen and 2/3 of hydrogen.

Explanation: human body consist of 1/3 of oxygen and 2/3 of hydrogen because oxygen contain 16 times more mass than hydrogen atom, hydrogen has only 1 proton so its atomic no. is 1  whereas oxygen has 8 proton and 8 neutrons so its atomic no.is 8 and mass is 16 so overall it takes 16 hydrogen atoms to equal to the mass of 1 oxygen atom.

The bright-line spectrum of an element in the gaseous phase is produced as 1. protons move from lower energy states to higher en
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

4. Electrons move from higher energy states to lower energy states.

Explanation:

When electrons fall from a higher (excited) energy state to a lower energy state, it loses/gives out energy.

This energy is given out by the emission of photons (quanta of light) by the electron.
