An atom is so miniscule that you can't even see a single atom. Think of the smallest thing in the world and know that possibly millions of atoms form that object

Ac soucre change it polarity how many time

Karolina [17]

What is the theory of light?

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Corpuscular theory of light

Explanation:

In optics, the corpuscular theory of light, arguably set forward by Descartes in 1637, states that light is made up of small discrete particles called "corpuscles" which travel in a straight line with a finite velocity and possess impetus. This was based on an alternate description of atomism of the time period.

A 0.10 kg ball of dough is thrown straight up into the air with an initial speed of 15 m/s.

Reptile [31]

<span>Mass of the ball is m = 0.10kg Initial speed of the Ball v = 15m/s a. When the ball is at maximum height the velocity is 0 Momentum of ball = mass x velocity Momentum = 0.10kg x 0 = 0 b. Getting the maximum height, Using the conservation of energy equation KEinitial = mgh 1/2mVin^2 = mgh => h = v^2/2g h = 15^2/2x9.8 = 11.48m => Half Height h = 5.96m Applying the conservation of energy equation at halfway V^2 = 2gh V = square root of (2x9.8x5.96) => V = square root of (116.816) So the velocity at the half way V = 10.81 m/s Momentum M = m x V => M = 0.10 x 10.81 => M = 1.081kg-m/s</span>

The sun’s___and the planet’s___keeps planets moving is___orbits.

Sauron [17]

The sun’s gravitational attraction and the planet’s inertia keeps planets moving is circular orbits.

Explanation:

The planets in the Solar System move around the Sun in a circular orbit. This motion can be explained as a combination of two effects:

1) The gravitational attraction of the Sun. The Sun exerts a force of gravitational attraction on every planet. This force is directed towards the Sun, and its magnitude is

$F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the Sun

m is the mass of the planet

r is the distance between the Sun and the planet

This force acts as centripetal force, continuously "pulling" the planet towards the centre of its circular orbit.

2) The inertia of the planet. In fact, according to Newton's first law, an object in motion at constant velocity will continue moving at its velocity, unless acted upon an external unbalanced force. Therefore, the planet tends to continue its motion in a straight line (tangential to the circular orbit), however it turns in a circle due to the presence of the gravitational attraction of the Sun.
