What is meant by line spectrum? Explain how line spectrum can be used for the identification of elements?

The line spectrum is also known as the emission light spectrum.
The ELS shows what colors of light are released when an element(or a specific compoud) is burned or electricity is sent through the gaseous form.

The ELS can be used to identify elements because each element has a different ELS. Elements like Tungsten produce a white light when burned, so their ELS has many line close together. This is why tungsten was used for lightbulbs.

Two resistors, A and B, are connected in a series circuit with a battery. The resistance of A is twice that of B. Which resistor
IgorC [24]

Answer:

A dissipates more power.

Explanation:

  • In a series circuit, the current is the same at any point in it.
  • The power dissipated in any resistor follows Joule's law, as follows:

        P = I^{2} * R

  • So, for a given current, the power is directly proportional to the resistance of the resistor.
  • In this case, as resistor A has twice the resistance of resistor B, A dissipates twice more power than B.

In Speed Study Number 1, we looked at two cars traveling the same distance at different speeds on city streets. Car "A" traveled
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

230.4 s

Explanation:

The speed of car A is

v_A = 35 mi/h

and the distance travelled is

d = 10 mi

so the time taken for car A is

t_A = \frac{d}{v_A}=\frac{10 mi}{35 mi/h}=0.286 h

The speed of car B is

v_B = 45 mi/h

and the distance travelled is

d = 10 mi

so the time taken for car B is

t_B = \frac{d}{v_B}=\frac{10 mi}{45 mi/h}=0.222 h

So the difference in time is

\Delta t = t_A - t_B = 0.286 h -0.222 h=0.064 h

Which corresponds to

\Delta t = 0.064 h \cdot 3600 s/h = 230.4 s

so car B arrived 230.4 s before car A.

An object initially at rest experiences an acceleration
lidiya [134]

Answer:

1.4m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity is the total distance covered divided by the total time taken.

 Average velocity  = \frac{total distance }{time }  

 Total time taken  = 5s + 6s  = 11s

The first distance covered  = velocity x time  = 1.4 x 5 = 7m

     second distance covered  = velocity x time  = 1.4 x 6  = 8.4m

So;

  Average velocity  = \frac{7 + 8.4}{11}    = 1.4m/s
