What is/are the difference between wavelength and spectral lines?

Physics
1 answer:
Gre4nikov [31]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

<u><em>Definition of spectral line: </em></u><em>one of a series of linear images formed by a spectrograph or similar instrument and corresponding to a narrow portion of the spectrum of the radiation emitted or absorbed by a particular source.</em>

<em />

<u><em>Definition of Wavelength:</em></u><em> can be defined as the distance between two successive crests or troughs of a wave. It is measured in the direction of the wave. ... Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency. This means the longer the wavelength, lower the frequency.</em>

<em />

<em>So, the spectrum is the range of wavelength in visible light. While, wavelength is the length of a wave.</em>

<em></em>

I hope this helps!

Which term describes the number of crests that pass a point in a given amount of time
joja [24]
The term is frequency.

The frequency is the number of vibrations per unit of time or the number of waves that passes a point per unit of time.

Every crest (and every trough) represents a pass of the wave so you can count the number of crests in an intervavl of time to find the frequency as the number of crests divided by the time elapsed.

Which of the following about Dalton's theory of matter is true?
Lemur [1.5K]
D.Atoms can be divided into smaller parts.


Dalton's atomic theory was the first complete attempt to describe allmatter in terms of atoms and their properties. Dalton based his theory on the law of conservation of mass and the law of constant composition. The first part of his theory states that allmatter is made of atoms, which are indivisible.

If the load is 13 cm from the fulcrum, how much effort is needed to lifth the load ? Help me.
snow_tiger [21]
That depends on a few things that you haven't told us about the setup.
So I'm going to assume one of them, and then give you the answer
in terms of another one:

-- Assume a Class-I lever . . . the fulcrum is between the load and the effort.

-- Then the effort needed to lift the load is

(the weight of the load) x (13 / the distance between the fulcrum and the effort)
