Explain why each element has a unique spectrum of absorption or emission lines.

1 answer:

Each elements emission spectrum is distinct because each element has a different set of electron energy levels. The emission lines correspond to the differences between various pairs of the many energy levels. The lines (photons) are emitted as electrons fall from higher energy orbitals to lower energies.

The amount of WORK done is determined by 2 factors.

RUDIKE [14]

Explanation :

Work is done when a force is applied to create a displacement on an object.

Thus, the work done depends on the two factors i.e.

(1) Applied force (F)

(2) Distance or displacement (d)

Mathematically, work done is $W= F.s$

It also depends on the angle between the force and the displacement.

$W=Fs\ cos\ \theta$

For example,

A person carries a weight of 20 kg and lifts it on his head 1.5 m above the surface. So, the work done by him on the luggage will be:

$W= F\times s$

or

$W=m\times g \times s$

$W=20\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1.5\ m$

So, $W=294\ Joules$

Hence, the work done by him on the luggage is 294 Joules.
