When a piece of metal is heated to high temperatures, it begins to glow red,

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.

What is the SPEED of a ball that travels 120 m in 6s?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

20m/second

Explanation:

The reason the answer is 20m/second is because to find the speed of the ball  in this question you have to divide the distance over the time giving you the result of 20m/second

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND 50 POINTS!
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

1) Current decreases; 2) Inverse proportionally; 3) 1[A]

Explanation:

1)

As we can see as the resistance increases the current decreases, if we take two points as an example, when the resistance is equal to 50 [ohms] the current is equal to 1[amp] and when the resistance is equal to 200 [ohms] the current tends to have a value below 0.5 [amp]. Thus demonstrating the decrease in current.

2)

Inverse proportionally, by definition we know that the law of ohm determines the voltage according to resistance and amperage. This is the voltage will be equal to the product of the voltage by the resistance.

V=I*R\\V = voltage [volts]\\I = current[amp]\\R = resistance [ohms]

where:

R =\frac{V}{I} \\or\\I=\frac{V}{R}

And whenever we have in a fractional number the denominator the variable we are interested in, we can say that this is inversely proportional to the value we are interested in determining. In this case, we can see from the two previous expressions that both the current and the resistance appear in the denominator, therefore they are inversely proportional to each other.

3)

If we place ourselves on the graph on the resistance axis, we see that at 50 [ohm] will correspond a current value equal to 1 [A].

In the absence of air resistance, at what other angle will a thrown ball go the same distance as one thrown at an angle of 75 de
snow_tiger [21]

As we know that range of the projectile motion is given by

R = \frac{v^2 sin(2\theta)}{g}

here we know that range will be same for two different angles

so here we can say the two angle must be complementary angles

so the two angles must be

\theta, 90 - \theta

so it is given that one of the projection angle is 75 degree

so other angle for same range must be 90 - 75 = 15 degree

so other projection angle must be 15 degree

The resistance of a wire depends upon the material's resistivity and the length and cross‑sectional area of the wire. What will
andriy [413]

Answer:

R' = 4R

The resistance will become 4 times the initial value.

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire at room temperature, is given by the following formula:

R = ρL/A   ----------- equation 1

where,

R = Resistance of wire

ρ = resistivity of the material

L = Length of wire

A = Cross-sectional area of wire

Now, if the length (L) is multiplied by 4, then resistance will become:

R' = ρ(4L)/A

R' = 4 (ρL/A)

using equation 1:

<u>R' = 4R</u>

<u>The resistance will become 4 times the initial value.</u>
