Answer:

D. stratosphere

Explanation:

The atmosphere is formed by five layers: The troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere and exosphere.

The troposphere is the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere. We live in the troposphere. Most clouds are in the troposphere.

The layer following the troposphere is the stratosphere in this layer is the so-called ozone layer and in it all meteorological phenomena that influence living beings, such as winds, rain and snow occur. In addition, it concentrates most of the oxygen and water vapor.

John accidentally drops his keys off the balcony at his apartment. John's friend Tony just happens to walk by at that moment and

EleoNora [17]

Explanation:

In order to find out if the keys will reach John or not, we can use the formula of projectile motion to find the maximum height reached by the keys:

H = V²Sin²θ/2g

where,

V = Launch Speed = 18 m/s

θ = Launch Angle = 40°

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

H = (18 m/s)²[Sin 40°]²/(2)(9.8 m/s²)

H = 6.83 m

Hence, the maximum height that can be reached by the projectile or the keys is greater than the height of John's Balcony(5.33 m).

Therefore, the keys will make it back to John.

What do we mean when we say that energy levels are quantized in atoms?

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Electrons are located in specific orbit corresponding to discrete energy levels

Explanation:

In Bohr's model of the atom, electron orbit the nucleus in specific levels, each of them corresponding to a specific energy. The electrons cannot be located in the space between two levels: this means that only some values of energy are possible for the electrons, so the energy levels are quantized.

A confirmation of Bohr's model is found in the spectrum of emission of gases. In fact, when an electron jumps from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, it emits a photon whose energy is exactly equal to the difference in energy between the two levels: since the energy levels are discrete, this means that the emitted photons cannot have any value of wavelength, but also their wavelength will appear as a discrete spectrum. This is exactly what it is observed in the spectrum of emission of gases.

An electric wheel chair is designed to run on a single 12-V battery rated to provide 100 ampere-hours. How much energy is stored

Paha777 [63]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Voltage of the battery, V = 12 V

Current, I = 100 ampere-hours

Energy stored is given by the product of power and time taken. So,

$E=P\times t$
