Answer:

are able to see/observe

Explanation:

Humans are not able to see most wavelengths in the universe--but there is a select range that is visible to our eyes. This (which is usually shown on an electromagnetic spectrum diagram/chart/depiction by a small portion of rainbow) is the visible light spectrum

A person is initially driving a car east down a straight road. the magnitude of the instantaneous acceleration is decreasing wit

Alexxandr [17]

By definition, acceleration is the change in velocity per change of time. As time passes by, the time increases in value. So, when the acceleration is decreasing while the time is increasing, then that means that the change of velocity is also decreasing with time. So, optimally, the initial velocity and the velocity at any time are very relatively close to each other,

What happens to molecules when their kinetic energy decreases?

Illusion [34]

Answer:

The speed of molecule decreases and temperature also decreases

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of the molecules of a subsance is directly proportional to the temperature of molecule So as the kinetic energy decrease, temperature also decreases. decreses their speed.

The smallest unit of charge is − 1.6 × 10 − 19 C, which is the charge in coulombs of a single electron. Robert Millikan was able

vovangra [49]

Answer:

$-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C,\ -3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C, -4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C$

Explanation:

Charge of an Electron

Since Robert Millikan determined the charge of a single electron is

$q_e=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}\ C$

Every possible charged particle must have a charge that is an exact multiple of that elemental charge. For example, if a particle has 5 electrons in excess, thus its charge is $5\times -1.6\cdot 10^{-19}\ C=-8 \cdot 10^{-19}\ C$

Let's test the possible charges listed in the question:

$-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ . We have just found it's a possible charge of a particle

$-3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ . Since 3.2 is an exact multiple of 1.6, this is also a possible charge of the oil droplets

$-1.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ this is not a possible charge for an oil droplet since it's smaller than the charge of the electron, the smallest unit of charge
