When the electrons jump to a higher energy state, they release energy as electromagnetic radiation, light.
When electrons are excited, they move to a lower energy level.
An electron in an energy level closest to the nucleus has greater energy.
When the electrons fall to a lower energy state, they release energy as electromagnetic radiation, light.
Answer:
When the electrons jump to a higher energy state, they release energy as electromagnetic radiation, light.
Explanation:
When the solar wind gets past the magnetic field and travels towards the Earth, it runs into the atmosphere. As the protons and electrons from the solar wind hit the particles in the Earth's atmosphere, they release energy – and this is what causes the northern lights.
Two conducting spheres rest on insulating stands. Sphere B is smaller than Sphere A. Both spheres are initially uncharged and they are touching. A third conducting sphere, C, has a positive charge. It is brought close to (but not touching) Sphere B as shown. What is the net charge (positive, negative, or zero) on Sphere A?
Answer:
Explanation:
Sphere B and sphere A are touching so they will act as a single body . A positively charged sphere C is brought near sphere B . So there will be induction of charge on sphere B and sphere A . Opposite charge will be induced on nearer sphere and same charge will be induced on distant sphere . Hence sphere B will be negatively charged and sphere A will be positively charged. The amount of charge induced on sphere B and A will be same and it will remain as long as sphere C is kept near sphere B . As soon as sphere C is removed , induced charges will also neutralize each other .

1 method of producing AC electricity from a RENEWABLE resource and NON-RENEWABLE resource
Answer:
See the explanation below.
Explanation:
An example of renewable energy is wind energy, since the planet by means of pressure variations among other natural phenomena presents air currents that can rotate the propellers of energy-generating turbines. This energy is renewable because the wind is used as a source of this energy.
An example of non-renewable energy is oil as it has been formed by carbon-containing fossils that have remained in the Earth's layers for millions of years. It is a non-renewable source since the amount of oil is finished after its total extraction from one well and for the generation of another well will depend on geological processes that last millions of years.

Explanation:
An Indy 500 race car's velocity increases from 4.0 m/s to +36
m/s over a 4.0 s time interval. What is its average
acceleration?
Answer:
The average acceleration is [tex]8\ m/s^2[/tex]
Explanation:
Uniform Acceleration
When an object varies its velocity at the same rate, the acceleration is constant.
The relation between the initial and final speeds is:
[tex]v_f=v_o+a.t[/tex]
Where:
vf = Final speed
vo = Initial speed
a = Constant acceleration
t = Elapsed time
The acceleration can be calculated by solving for a:
[tex]\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}[/tex]
The Indy 500 race car increases its speed from vo=4 m/s to vf=36 m/s in t=4 s. Thus, the average acceleration is:
[tex]\displaystyle a=\frac{36-4}{4}=8\ m/s^2[/tex]
The average acceleration is [tex]8\ m/s^2[/tex]

The box is stationary
Answer:
I hope the answer below helps :
Explanation:
Let the tension force be T in the rope.
The downward forces acting on the system of the boy and the box are the weight of the boy and the weight of the box.
The upward forces are T and T on each side of the rope.
As the system is in a static equilibrium:
[tex]T+T=(10+45)kg \\\\=>T=55kg[/tex]
or 55g or
Newtons=550N , if g=10m/s
The forces acting on the boy are: Tension T, reaction from the weighing machine, and weight 45 g. So,
Normal−reaction of the weighing machine :
[tex]45-T\\45-55\\=-10[/tex]
(i) The weighing machine shows its normal reaction force as the weight of the person standing on it. So weight displayed =-10kg.
(ii) Suppose the man pulls down the rope with a force F and the tension becomes T.
The forces acting downwards on the rope at the two ends are: F, weights of man and the box. The upward forces are Tension T on each side of rope.
The system being in equilibrium:
[tex]2T=F+45kgf+10kgf\\=F+55kgf\\=T=45kgf+\frac{F}{2}[/tex]
=> Normal reaction force from the weighing machine on the man
N=45+F−T=-10kgf+F/2
If N is to become 45kgf, then F has to be 55kgf or 550N
Answer:
The reading on the scale is 539 N.
Explanation:
The given parameters include;
mass of the box, M₁ = 10 kgmass of the boy, M₂ = 45 kgThe reading on the scale = weight of the boy + weight of the box
= M₂g + M₁g
= g(M₂ + M₁)
where;
g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²The reading on the scale is calculated as follows;
W = 9.8(45 + 10)
W = 9.8(55)
W = 539 N
Thus, the reading on the scale is 539 N.

A 10-kg box Initially at rest and moves along a frictionless horizontal surface. A Horizontal force to the right as applied to the box. The magnitude of the box change of the function of time as shown
b. What is the velocity of the box at 10 seconds? Show your work.
c. If you want to apply at constant force starting at 10 seconds, that would stop the box at exactly 20 seconds. What would the magnitude and direction of that force be? Show your work
Answer:
b. 1.1 m/s c. -1.1 m/s
Explanation:
b.
m x v=f x t
The mass is 10 kg
10 x v (equation for momentum) = f x t (impulse)
you would find the impulse by finding the area under the graph, and then dividing by the mass
So in this case:
10 x v = 11
then divide by the mass
v = 11/10
v= 1.1 m/s
c.
F x t = impulse
we are trying to find force (magnitude)
impulse/t = F
we said that in order for it to stop the impulse for b would be 11, so if thats the case it would be 11 but it would be negative because when going in a positive direction and suddenly stopping the direction changes.
-11/t = F
to find t all we need to do is find the amount of seconds between 10 and 20, that would be 10.
-11/10 = F
F= -1.1 m/s
Answer B:
The velocity of the box at 10 seconds is :
Formula :m x v=f x t
Given Information :
Mass(m)=10kg
10 x v (equation for momentum) = f x t (impulse)10 x v = 11v = 11/10v= 1.1 m/sTherefore, the velocity of the box at 10 seconds is 1.1m/s.
Answer C:
The magnitude and direction of that force be :
Formula:F x t = impulse
impulse/t = F-11/t = FTo find t all we need to do is find the amount of seconds between 10 and 20, that would be 10.
-11/10 = FF= -1.1 m/sThe magnitude and direction of that force will be -1.1m/s.

2 forces of magnitude, 5N and 8N respectively act at the same point and are inclined at 45 degree. Calculate the magnitude of the resultant force
Answer:
F = 36.956 N
Explanation:
The magnitude of the resultant force will be;
F = F1 × F2 × cosθ.
We are given;
F1 = 5 N
F2 = 8 N
The angle between the 2 forces is 45°
Thus, angle between each force and the vertical axis is 45/2 = 22.5°
F = 5 × 8 × cos 22.5
F = 40 × 0.9239
F = 36.956 N

Why do cells have receptors? Receptors make mRNA. Receptors let the cell know when to let things in and out of the cell. Receptors make spike proteins.
Answer: Cells have receptors because Receptors let the cell know when to let things in and out of the cell.
Explanation:
Cell receptors also called transmembrane receptors are proteins located on the surface of a cell (extracellularly) or inside the cell which receive signals that alters the functions of the cell. The functions of the cells which can be altered includes the alteration in gene transcription and the cell morphology.
Cell receptors are generally categorizes into the following groups:
--> Internal receptors
--> cell surface receptors
--> ion channel receptors
--> G protein coupled receptors
--> enzyme linked receptors
Interaction of cell membrane receptors with specific ligands that bonds to the receptors causes conformational changes in the receptor protein. This in turn, enzymatically activates the intracellular part of the protein or induces interactions between the receptor and the proteins in the cytoplasm that act as second messengers, thereby relaying the signal from the extracellular part of the receptor to the interior of the cell. This enables the cell to know when to let things in or out of it through the information conveyed.
