When sunlight strikes an electron, it absorbs energy, making moving down to a lower shell impossible. Instead, it can jump to a shell with higher energy. It won't collide with the nucleus, and it could also remain where it is if it doesn't gain sufficient energy to move upwards.

Two outcomes are possible:
<span>- the electron might jump to a higher energy level (electron shell)
- or it may remain in its current shell
</span><span>
Sunlight is composed of photons; when these photons strike an electron, the electron can absorb one, gaining energy. If the energy absorbed equals or exceeds the gap between shells, the electron elevates to a higher shell. If the photon's energy falls short, the electron stays put within its original shell.</span>

A baseball player exerts a force of 100 N on a ball for a distance of 0.5 mas he throws it. If the ball has a mass of 0.15 kg, w
Keith_Richards [3163]
25.82 m/s Explanation: Given: Force applied by the baseball player; F = 100 N Distance the ball travels; d = 0.5 m Mass of the ball; m = 0.15 kg To find the velocity at which the ball is released, we will equate the work done with the kinetic energy involved. It's important to recognize that work done reflects the energy the baseball player has used. Thus, the relationship can be represented as follows: F × d = ½mv² 100 × 0.5 = ½ × 0.15 × v² Solving gives: v² = (2 × 100 × 0.5) / 0.15 v² = 666.67 v = √666.67 v = 25.82 m/s.

A circular surface with a radius of 0.057 m is exposed to a uniform external electric field of magnitude 1.44 × 104 N/C. The mag
Softa [2968]

Answer:

57.94°

Explanation:

We understand that the formula for flux is

\Phi =E\times S\times COS\Theta

where Ф represents flux

           E indicates electric field

           S denotes surface area

        θ signifies the angle between the electric field direction and the surface normal.

It is given that Ф= 78 \frac{Nm^{2}}{sec}

                          E=1.44\times 10^{4}\frac{Nm}{C}

                          S=\pi \times 0.057^{2}

                         COS\Theta =\frac{\Phi }{S\times E}

 =   \frac{78}{1.44\times 10^{4}\times \pi \times 0.057^{2}}

 =0.5306

 θ=57.94°

Steam transforms into gas as it escapes into the atmosphere. Even if you manage to capture the steam as it ascends, it can revert to H2O when it cools down. Due to the evaporation process, the final volume of water will differ from the original amount.

A rotating beacon is located 2 miles out in the water. Let A be the point on the shore that is closest to the beacon. As the bea
serg [3495]

Answer:

v = 3369.2 m/s

Explanation:

The beacon is rotating at an angular speed of

f = 10 rev/min

so we have

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi(\frac{10}{60})

\omega = 1.047 rad/s

We know that

v = r \omega

At this point we have

r = 2 miles = 2(1609 m)

r = 3218 m

So we can conclude with

v = 3218(1.047)

v = 3369.2 m/s

In 1610, galileo used his telescope to discover four prominent moons around jupiter. their mean orbital radii a and periods t ar
Yuliya22 [3252]
The time period for any moon of Jupiter is described by the formula above, which also allows us to calculate Jupiter's mass. For part a, T is 1.77 days, which is equal to 152928 seconds. Applying the formula, we can derive the values needed. For part B, T equals 3.55 days or 306720 seconds, and repeating this with the necessary formula allows us to find the mass of Jupiter. For part c, T is 7.16 days, equating to 618624 seconds. Once again, using the earlier formula, we find Jupiter's mass. Finally, for PART D, T is noted to be 16.7 days or 1442880 seconds, and we can find the mass of Jupiter using the provided formula.
