Neither the speed nor the distance of a falling object is linearly related to time.
Answer:
Explanation:
Velocity by definition means speed and direction of an object. This means it has a value and a positive or minus sign indicating direction. Speed is the absolute value of velocity because there is no direction correlated with speed. If you add a direction, it is then called velocity
Answer:
A. when the mass has a displacement of zero
Explanation:
The velocity of a mass on a spring can be calculated by using the law of conservation of energy. In fact, the total energy of the mass-spring system is equal to the sum of the elastic potential energy (U) of the spring and the kinetic energy (K) of the mass:
where
k is the spring constant
x is the displacement of the mass with respect to the equilibrium position of the spring
m is the mass
v is the velocity of the mass
Since the total energy E must remain constant, we can notice the following:
- When the displacement is zero (x=0), the velocity must be maximum, because U=0 so K is maximum
- When the displacement is maximum, the velocity must be minimum (zero), because U is maximum and K=0
Based on these observations, we can conclude that the velocity of the mass is at its maximum value when the displacement is zero, so the correct option is A.

Explanation:
The spacing between two energy levels in an atom shows the energy difference between them. Clearly, B has a greater value of ∆E compared to A. This implies that the wavelength emitted by B is greater than A while B will emit fewer, more energetic photons.
When atoms jump from lower to higher energy levels, photons are absorbed. The kinetic energy of the incident photon determines the frequency, wavelength and colour of light emitted by the atom.
The energy level to which an atom is excited is determined by the kinetic energy of the incident electron. As the voltage increases, the kinetic energy of the electron increases, the further the atom is from the source of free electrons, the greater the required kinetic energy of free electron. When electrons are excited to higher energy levels, they must return to ground state.
Bio-gas is the naturally produced fossil fuel, a by-product when bacteria decompose organic material under anaerobic conditions.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Organic matter particularly waste material is broken down by bacteria through fermentation in an environmental condition without any presence of oxygen. This process of decomposition leads to formation of bio-gas with "carbon dioxide and methane" in a 2:3 ratio.
The above biological process is termed as bio-digestion or anaerobic digestion. Methane is flammable and thus bio-gas can be used as "energy source", a waste-to-energy transformation. The remaining decomposed matter is ideal as manure for plants due to its rich nutrient level.
