A 6.1-kg solid sphere, made of metal whose density is 2600 kg/m3, is suspended by a cord. When the sphere is immersed in a liqui

The answer is C. The specific amount of energy released when excited electrons fall back to the ground state produces an emission spectrum. That energy is emitted as photons with precise wavelengths corresponding to the energy differences between levels. Because each element yields a characteristic set of wavelengths, the emission spectrum can be used to identify the element in the sample.

Answer:

The adjustable legs along with the sand table.

Using Models to Address Questions Regarding Systems

Armando’s class was examining images of rivers shaped by flowing water. Most rivers appeared wide and shallow, except for one, which was narrow and deep. The students theorized that this river's narrowness and depth are due to:

• the steepness of the hill from which the water descends, or
• the diminutive size of the sand grains the water flows through.

To explore the answer to the question of why this river is so narrow and deep, Armando created the model outlined below.

Explanation:

The model constructed by Armando will facilitate addressing the question due to specific features:

1. Adjustable leg - as one theory proposed by the class suggests that the steep hill affecting the water's path could be the reason for the river's dimensions, the adjustable legs are designed to be raised or lowered to alter the slope, allowing testing of this theory.

2. Sand table - this acts as the streambed. By modifying the size of the sand grains, students can examine the second hypothesis that smaller sand grains contribute to the river's narrowness and depth.

The outcomes of their experimentation will lead them to a conclusion.
