In the development of atomic models, it was realized that the atom is mostly empty. Consider a model for the hydrogen atom where

its nucleus is a sphere with a radius of roughly 10−15 m, and assume the electron orbits in a circle with a radius of roughly 10−10 m. In order to get a better sense for the emptiness of the atom, choose an object and estimate its width. This object will be your "nucleus". How far away would the "electron" be located away from your "nucleus"? Choose an object and estimate its width. Give an answer between 0.0001 m and 100 m. m Using your estimated width as the diameter of the "nucleus" and calculate the radius of the "electron's" orbit. m

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

a) in solving the first question, we will be choosing a spherical ball of radius 1 m, Therefore the width of the object is the diameter = 2m.

b)Given that and according to the question, the radius of the electron's orbit = 1x105 x radius of the object = 1x105 x1 = 1x105 m

For this triangle...?
Mariulka [41]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

= 0.6

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Using Pythagoras theorrem

Base² + height ² = Hypotenuse²

Thus;

Base² = 15² - 12²

          = 81

Base = √81 = 9

But; cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse

Hence; cos θ = 9/15

                      <u>= 0.6 </u>

A 10-foot ladder is leaning straight up against a wall when a person begins pulling the base of the ladder away from the wall at
docker41 [41]

Answer:

y = 4.36

Explanation:

Let the height of the ladder be L

L = 10

Also:

  • Let x = distance\ from\ the\ base\ of\ the\ ladder
  • Let y = height\ of\ the\ base\ of\ the\ ladder

When the ladder leans against the wall, it forms a triangle and the length of the ladder forms the hypotenuse.

So, we have:

L^2 = x^2 + y^2 --- Pythagoras Theorem

When the base is 9ft from the wall, this means that:

x = 9

Substitute 9 for x and 10 for L in L^2 = x^2 + y^2

10^2 = 9^2 + y^2

100 = 81 + y^2

Make y^2 the subject

y^2 = 100 - 81

y^2 = 19

Make y the subject

y = \sqrt{19

y = 4.36

<em>Hence, the true distance at that point is approximately 4.36ft</em>

according to Newton's third law what is the equal and opposite force to the downward force of gravity pulling on a man standing
Fudgin [204]

When you're talking about gravity, it's easy to identify the equal
opposite forces.

Gravity ALWAYS produces an equal pair of opposite forces. 
They both act between the centers of the two objects, one in
each direction.

Consider the equal pair of opposite gravitational forces between
you and the Earth.  One force acts on you, and draws you toward
the center of the Earth.  We call that force "your weight". 
The other one acts on the Earth, and draws it toward the center
of you.  Hardly anybody ever talks about that one, but the two
forces are equal ... your weight on Earth is equal to the Earth's
weight on you !
