When an electron drops from one level to a lower energy level, it emits a quantum of energy. The different mix of energy differences for each atom produces different colours. Each metal gives a characteristic flame emission spectrum.

Graduated cylinder is filled to 41.5mL with water, and a price of granite is placed in the cylinder displacing the level to 47.6
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

6.1 cm³

Explanation:

To solve this problem we first need to keep in mind <em>Archimedes' principle</em>:

  • The volume of water (or any fluid) displaced by a submerged object is equal to the object's volume.

With that in mind we <u>calculate the volume of the granite piece in mililiters</u>:

  • Volume displaced = 47.6 mL - 41.5 mL = 6.1 mL
  • Volume of the granite piece = 6.1 mL

Given that one cubic centimeter is equal to one mililiter, the volume of the granite piece in cm³ is 6.1 cm³.

What is the resistance of a 150 W lightbulb connected to a 24 V voltage source?
Luda [366]

Answer:

3.84 Ω

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Electrical power (P) = 150 W

Voltage (V) = 24 V

Resistance (R) =?

P = IV

Recall:

V = IR

Divide both side by R

I = V/R

P = V/R × V

P = V² / R

Where:

P => Electrical power

V => Voltage

I => Current

R => Resistance

With the above formula (i.e P = V²/R), we can calculate resistance as illustrated below:

Electrical power (P) = 150 W

Voltage (V) = 24 V

Resistance (R) =?

P = V²/R

150 = 24² / R

150 = 576 / R

Cross multiply

150 × R = 576

Divide both side by 150

R = 576 / 150

R = 3.84 Ω

Thus, the resistance is 3.84 Ω

How many millimeters are there in 5.12 x 10^5
Anton [14]

Answer:

5.12x10¹¹ millimeters

Explanation:

Milli is a prefix used in science and engineering to decribe the number as the exponent x10⁻³. In the prefix kilo, the number is at the exponent x10³.

5.12x10⁵ kilometers are:

5.12x10⁵ kilometers * (1000m / 1km) = 5.12x10⁸ meters

5.12x10² meters * (1m / 1000millimeters) = 5.12x10¹¹ millimeters
