Describe the results of Ernest Rutherford's gold-foil experiment and explain how his results changed ideas about the distributio

In Rutherford's gold foil experiment, some of the positive particles would pass through the foil and some would bounce off. This led to a new theory that all of the positive subatomic particles were in the center of the atom instead of evenly spread throughout.

a 100g ice cube at 0 degrees celsius is placed in 650 grams of water at 25 degrees celsius. When the mixture reaches equillibriu
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The latent heat of fusion of water is 334.88 Joules per gram of water.

Explanation:

Let the latent heat of ice be 'x' J/g

1) Thus heat absorbed by 100 gram of ice to get converted into water equals

Q_1=100\times x

2) heat energy required to raise the temperature of water from 0 to 25 degree Celsius equals

Q_2=100\times 4.186\times 11=4604.6Joules

Thus total energy needed equals Q_1+Q_2=100x+4604.6

3) Heat energy released by the decrease in the temperature of water from 25 to 11 degree Celsius is

Q_3=650\times 4.186\times (25-11)\\\\Q_{3}=38092.6Joules

Now by conservation of energy we have

Q_1+Q_2=Q_3\\\\100x+4604.6=38092.6\\\\\therefore x=\frac{38092.6-4604.6}{100}=334.88J/g

A ball with an initial velocity of 8.00 m/s rolls up a hill without slipping. (a) Treating the ball as a spherical shell, calcul
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Part i)

h = 5.44 m

Part ii)

h = 3.16 m

Explanation:

Part i)

Since the ball is rolling so its total kinetic energy in this case will convert into gravitational potential energy

So we have

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = mgh

here we know that for spherical shell and pure rolling conditions

v = R \omega

I = \frac{2}{3}mR^2

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{3}mR^2)(\frac{v^2}{R^2}) = mgh

\frac{5}{6}mv^2 = mgh

h = \frac{5v^2}{6g}

h = \frac{5(8^2)}{6(9.81)} = 5.44 m

Part b)

If ball is not rolling and just sliding over the hill then in that case

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh

h = \frac{v^2}{2g}

h = \frac{8^2}{2(9.81)} = 3.16 m
