What is the best explanation for different colored specks and different markings in some rocks?
Different elements are mixed together in rocks, which give them different colors. or striations.
Why do different atoms have different lines in their spectra?
Different elements release different photons of light when the electrons absorb energy and get excited. The excited electron jumps up to different energy levels and then returns to the ground state by releasing the extra energy that it just absorbed in the form of light. Different elements have different atoms with different amounts of electrons in different places. Because of this, the power of the photons they emit are different, causing different spectral lines. (the power of the photons makes a difference because the different colors of lines are caused by different intensities of the wavelength and frequency, but that's kind of another story.)
What particles give off high energy?
Radionuclide or radioisotope is a substance that give off high energy particles or rays as it disintegrates. They emit three types of radioactivity is alpha particles, beta particles, and gamma rays.
Atoms of which group on the periodic table give off the most energy when forming negative ions?
Nonmetals, they fill out their outermost energy level by gaining electrons.
What information does a star's spectrum offer about the star?
Spectroscopy shows what elements are present in the star, it's chemical composition. The different elements give off different energy signatures through radiation, which relate to the wavelength and therefore colour.
What are unstable elements that give off energy as they decay called?
The elements described are said to be radioactive.
What are different kind of energy give a meanings and examplse?
what are different kind of energy give a meanings and examples
Give examples of the different uses of energy?
what are the uses of energy?
Do elements typically give up electrons because they have a low ionization energy?
no
Why do elements have a characteristic color when exposed to heat?
u can give your daughter or son one cent but can u give half cent? similarly things in nature are quantized - they can release energy only equal to difference of the energy level their electrons can jump so, as arrngement of electrons is different in different elements so is the difference in frequencies they emit hence the different colours
How you can determine whether signal is power signal or energy signal?
A signal x(t) is called an energy signal , if the energy is finite and the power is zero.A signal x(t) is called an power signal , if the power is finite and the energy is infinite.
Why elements give line spectrum?
Because the spectra of elements is determined by the energy of transitions of electrons between two allowed quantum states. Since these energy differences can have only certain specified values, the spectrum consists of lines: The spectrum frequency values intermediate between the lines do not correspond to transitions between any two allowed quantum states and therefore do not appear in the spectrum
What to do if you are in love with someone and they give off mixed signals?
Wait, if she/he still give mixed signals, then you can tell him your true feelings.
Give and describe the different forms of energy?
potential,kinetic,mechanical
