Answer:

Line emission.

Explanation:

According to Isaac Newton, he postulated that light consists of little (tiny) particles which typically travels in a straight line and from his experimental investigation he observed that white light comprises of a mixture of colors.

Sir Newton observed that, when light shines on a piece of metal, the metal releases electrons because the energy of the tiny light particles are greater than the binding energy of the electrons residing in the metal. This theory is known as the particle model of light.

A line emission would appear in a spectrum when specific wavelength is being emitted by the source of light.

When a high voltage is applied to a low-pressure gas causing it to glow, it will generate line emission.

For example, if a sample of hydrogen gas at low-pressure undergoes or experiences a high voltage electrical discharge, the isolated hydrogen gas would generate a red light (line emission).

Two blocks a and b ($m_a>m_b$) are pushed for a certain distance along a frictionless surface. how does the magnitude of the

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

the magnitude of the work done by the two blocks is the same.

Explanation:

The work done by block a on block b is given by:

$W_a = F_a d$

where Fa is the force exerted by block a on block b, and d is the distance they cover.

The work done by block b on block a is given by:

$W_b = F_b d$

where Fb is the force exerted by block b on block a, and d is still the distance they cover.

For Newton's third law, the force exerted by block a on block b is equal to the force exerted by block b on block a, therefore

$F_a = F_b$

and so

$W_a=W_b$
