Answer:

Explanation: When the electrons move in another direction, they convert this chemical potential energy to electricity in the circuit, thus discharging the battery. So, the battery is all potential energy.

Answer:

because when it is in the electrical state it isn't really doing much. like a battery. it isn't making light, heat, sound, our movement. thus it is potential energy. like a compressed spring its holding energy ready to be used but it is not using it. hope that helped you.

Answer:

<em>There is no induced current on the coil.</em>

Explanation:

Current is induced in a coil or a circuit, when there is a break of flux linkage. A break in flux linkage is caused by a changing magnetic field, and must be achieved by a relative motion between the coil and the magnet. Holding the magnet above the center of the coil will cause no changing magnetic filed since there is no relative motion between the coil and the magnet.

How did rutherford’s experiment shape our current model of the atom?

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Before the Rutherford's model of the atom, the plum pudding model proposed by J.J Thomson through his experiment using the gas discharge tube was the prevalent structure of the atom known.

Through Thomson, it was widely and popularly believed that the atom is made up of a pool of negatively charged particles.

When Rutherford performed the Alpha scattering experiment using a thing gold foil, he observed that all the alpha particles passed through the thin gold foil and just a few of them were deflected back.

To explain this, the suggested the atomic or nuclear model of that atom in which an atom has a small positively charged center called nucleus where all the mass is concentrated.

Today, the suggestion that an atom is made up of nucleus is highly relevant and still consistent.

Particle 1 has mass 4.6 kg and is on the x-axis at x = 5.7 m. Particle 2 has mass 7.2 kg and is on the y-axis at y = 4.2 m. Part

Iteru [2.4K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Gravitational Force, for this purpose it is understood that the gravitational force is described as

$F_g = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}$

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Force

$m_i =$ Mass of each object

To solve this problem it is necessary to divide the gravitational force (x, y) into the required components and then use the tangent to find the angle generated between both components.

Our values are given as,

$m_1 =4.6 kg\\m_2 = 7.2 kg\\m_3 = 2.6 kg\\r_1 = 5.7 m\\r_2 = 4.2 m$

Applying the previous equation at X-Axis,

$F_x = \frac{Gm_1m_3}{R_{1}^2}\\F_x = \frac{6.67*10^{-11}*4.6*2.6}{5.7^2}\\F_x = 2.46*10^{-11}N$

Applying the previous equation at Y-Axis,

$F_y = \frac{Gm_2m_3}{R_2^2}\\F_y = \frac{6.67*10^{-11}*7.2*2.6}{4.2^2}\\F_y = 7.08*10^{-11} N$

Therefore the angle can be calculated as,

$tan\theta = \frac{F_y}{F_x}\\\theta = tan^{-1} \frac{F_y}{F_x}\\\theta = tan^{-1} \frac{7.08*10^{-11}}{2.46*10^{-11}}\\\theta = 71\°$

Then in the measure contrary to the hands of the clock the Force in the particle 3 is in between the positive direction of the X and the negative direction of the Y at 71 ° from the positive x-axis.
