Answer:

The particle model, because the metal is only absorbing radiation

of specific frequencies

Explanation:

The heating of a metal is an example of blackbody radiation. Blackbody radiation refers to the spectrum of light emitted by any heated object; common examples include the heating element of a toaster and the filament of a light bulb. The spectral intensity of blackbody radiation peaks at a frequency that increases with the temperature of the emitting body(Encyclopedia Britianica).

Max Plank proffered explanation to black body radiation by assuming that the oscillators in the heated body emit or absorb energy in discrete frequencies given by E=hf. Hence the energy was directly proportional to the frequency of the oscillator.

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

2.48 m/s

Explanation:

We can use the kinematic equation,

s = ut +½at²

Where

s = displacement

u = initial velocity

t = time taken

a = acceleration

Using the equation in vertical direction,

321 = 0×t +½×g×t², u = 0 because initial vertical velocity is 0

We get t = 8.01 s

Using the equation in the horizontal direction,

52 = u×8.01 +½×0×(8.01)²,. a = 0 because no unbalanced force act on object in that direction

So u = 2.48 m/s

How does a battery work?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Essentials. A battery is a device that stores chemical energy and converts it to electrical energy. The chemical reactions in a battery involve the flow of electrons from one material (electrode) to another, through an external circuit. The flow of electrons provides an electric current that can be used to do work.
