Answer:

B) an electron to move from ground state to an excited state.

Explanation:

Chlorophyll is a pigment that absorbs electromagnetic radiation of the visible spectrum that is used in process of photosynthesis. Chlorophyll's function is to absorb electromagnetic radiation of the visible spectrum and it absorbs blue color radiation the best and green the worst as it reflects it. It absorbs electromagnetic radiation by absorbing the energy of the photon of light by a process called charge separation.

Charge separation is the process by which an electron gets to a higher energy state by absorbing the energy of a photon.

Predict what the MASS would be of something exerting a force of 45N on a spring scale. EXPLAIN how you got
a_sh-v [17]
The mutual forces of gravity between the Earth and an object on or near
its surface are (<em>mass of the object</em>) x (<em>acceleration of gravity on Earth</em>). 
These two forces are equal, and we call their strength the "weight" of
the object.  It's the number shown on the scale as long as nobody has
their thumb on the scale.  In this problem, the force is 45N .  (That's
about 10.12 pounds.)

The acceleration of gravity on Earth is about  9.8 meters per second² .

So    45N = (mass in kilograms) x (9.8 meters per second²)

Divide each side by  9.8 :      Mass = 45/9.8 = <u>4.59 kilograms</u>  (rounded)

You cover the following displacements every day going to school: d1=50 m, E and d2=95 m, N. You do this for 12 minutes. a) What
puteri [66]

The speed will be 0.2 m/s and the velocity will be 0 m/s.

Speed = Total Distance / Total time

We have given total distance as ( 50 + 95 ) metres and total time as 12 minutes or we can say 720 seconds.

Speed = 145/ 720 m/s

Speed = 0.2 m/s

Velocity = Total Displacement / Total time

As the initial and final is the home, hence the net displacement is 0 in that case.

In this case also the total time we have given is 12 minutes or we can say 720 seconds.

Velocity = 0 / 720 m/s

Velocity = 0 m/s

So to conclude with we can say that the speed is 0.2 m/s and the velocity is 0 m/s.

A light ray incident on a block of glass makes an incident angle of 50.0° with the normal to the surface. The refracted ray in t
Andru [333]

Answer:

n_{glass} = 1.65

Explanation:

As we know that the angle of incidence is given as

i = 50.0^o

also we have angle of refraction as

r = 27.7^o

now by Snell's law we know that

n_{air} sin i = n_{glass} sin r

1 sin50 = n_{glass} sin 27.7

now we have

n_{glass} = \frac{sin 50}{sin 27.7}

n_{glass} = 1.65

A bowling ball with a mass of 9kg is thrown down a lane with a constant speed of 3 m/s. The ball hits the 1.5kg pin, initially a
olasank [31]

Answer:

M1 V1 = M1 V2 + M2 V3    conservation of momentum

V2 = (M1 V1 - M2 V3) / M1      where V2 = speed of M1 after impact

V2 = (3 * 9 - 1.5 * 5) / 9  =   (27 - 7.5) / 9 = 2.17 m/s

Note: All speeds are in the same direction and have the same sign
