The visible spectrum of sunlight shows a range of colors from red to violet. This spectrum has numerous dark lines spread throug

hout it. Noting that the surface of the Sun is much cooler than the interior, so that the surface is comparable to a cool gas through which light passes, which of the following statements correctly explains the dark lines?
a. The cooler, denser surface material scatters certain wavelengths of light, forming dark lines.
b. The atoms at the surface absorb certain wavelengths of light, causing the dark lines at those wavelengths.
c. The atoms in the Sun’s interior emit light of specific wavelength, so that parts of the spectrum are dark.
d. The atoms at the surface are excited by the high interior temperatures, so that the dark lines are merely wavelengths at which those atoms don’t emit energy.

fenix001 [56]

Explanation:

Momentum before = momentum after

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

(65 kg) (0 m/s) + m (0 m/s) = (65 kg) (-3.5 m/s) + m (4 m/s)

m ≈ 57 kg

Which option is a force?<br> O A. Mass<br> O B. Velocity<br> O C. Acceleration<br> O D. Weight
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Weight is a force.

Explanation:

Force acting on an object is defined in terms of mass and its acceleration. Its mathematical force is given by

F = ma

Weight of an object is force that the Earth exerts on an object. It can be given by the formula as follows :

W = mg

g is acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth

Hence, the correct option is (d).

Where is the sun's energy most concentrated
Maru [420]

B. At the equator

Explanation:

The energy coming from the Sun hits the Earth's surface at different angles, depending on the latitude of the place. The more perpendicular the ray of lights hit the surface, the more the energy transmitted to the Earth's surface, the warmer the location.

The angle at which the ray of lights hit the Earth is related to the latitude: in particular, the ray of lights arrive perpendicular at the equator (0^{\circ}), they arrive at larger angle in the United States (which is located at intermediate latitudes) and they arrive at the largest angles at the poles. For this reason, the sun's most energy is concentrated at the equator.
