Match the Physical Law or Activity Below with the Observable

Question 11

Matching

Match the physical law or activity below with the observable effect it produces.

Premises:
An excited atom in which an electron is raised to a higher orbit.
The energy output of a surface is proportional to the temperature of the surface.
The apparent change in the wavelength of a photon from a source caused by the relative motion of the source and the observer.
The wavelength of maximum intensity depends on the surface temperature of the star.
Each atom absorbs or emits a set of photon wavelengths unique to its element type.
Responses:
Wien's Law
the Doppler effect
agitation and collision of atoms
electron motion between energy levels
the Stefan-Boltzmann law
