Force, as pressure unit is N/A.
damaskus [11]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a) Force

Explanation:

As we know that pressure is defined as Force Exerted normal to a given surface per unit Area

So here it is given as

Pressure = \frac{Force}{Area}

P = \frac{F}{A}

so here we can say that pressure gives force in the normal direction or perpendicular direction per unit area

Its SI unit is given as Newton per square meter

Wood is burning. *
xenn [34]

Answer:

It may seem as though burning destroys matter, but the same amount, or mass, of matter still exists after a campfire as before. Look at Figure 3.7.1 below. It shows that when wood burns, it combines with oxygen and changes not only to ashes, but also to carbon dioxide and water vapor. The gases float off into the air, leaving behind just the ashes. Suppose you had measured the mass of the wood before it burned and the mass of the ashes after it burned. Also suppose you had been able to measure the oxygen used by the fire and the gases produced by the fire. What would you find? The total mass of matter after the fire would be the same as the total mass of matter before the fire.

Simplified. The absorption spectra of ions have been used to identify the presence of the elements in the atmospheres of the sun
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The answer is "3.83 \times 10^9 \ m"

Explanation:

Z=2, so the equation is E= \frac{-4B}{n^2}

Calculate the value for E when:  

n=2 and n=9

The energy is the difference in transformation, name the energy delta E Deduct these two energies  

In this transition, the wavelength of the photon emitted is:

\Delta E=2.18 \times  10^{-18} ( \frac{1}{4}- \frac{1}{81})

\lambda = \frac{h c}{\Delta E}

h ( Planck's\  constant) = 6.62 \times  10^{(-34)} \ Js \\\\ speed \ of \ light = 3 \times 10^{8} \ \frac{m}{s}\\\\= \frac{6.62 \times 10^{(-34)} \times 3 \times 10^ {8}}{2.18 \times  10^{-18}} (\frac{1}{4}- \frac{1}{81}) \\\\=3.83 \times 10^9 \ m\\\\
