Option (B) is correct .i.e. atoms are made of particles that have negative charge.

Further explanation:

Using cathode ray tube, J.J Thomson found that something emits from the negative plate (called as cathode) and goes towards the positive plate (called as anode), and on applying zinc sulfide (also called phosphor) coating on the perforated anode, it shows green fluorescence at some particular values of pressure and temperature.

William Crookes called them the cathode rays as were originated from cathode. Further, Atoms are overall neutral having equal amounts of positive and negative charge as he explained in his plum pudding model.

Although, electrons in atoms have varying energy but this was not confirmed by J.J. Thomson, also electrons can’t be inside nucleus because this would make atoms very unstable.

Some of the properties of those cathode rays are as follows:

(1). They are made up of material particles (they made the light wheels rotate that come in their path).

(2). The green fluorescence was also observed when he putted two more plates perpendicular to the earlier path and the rays followed a curved path towards the new anode.

(3). They has an ionizing property (they ionizes the gas present in the cathode ray tube, through which they pass).

Thus, Option (B) is correct because the cathode rays are emitted from the metallic plate which’s atoms have particles having negative charge.

A bicycle is heading West. It goes 5000m in 500s what's its velocity

dybincka [34]

There are several information's of immense importance already given in the question. Based on the given information's the answer to the question can easily be determined.
Distance covered by the bicycle = 5000 meter
Time taken by the bicycle to reach the distance = 500 second.
Velocity of the bicycle = Distance / Time taken
= 5000/500 meter/second
= 50 meter/second
So the velocity of the bicycle is 50 meter per second. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. In future you can always use this procedure for solving similar problems.

Which type of molecule is added to this genetic sequece might create a insertion mutation? A-G-A-T-G-C-A-G-A-G-T-T-A-C-G-G

Jet001 [13]

D. Adding another base pair will re-arrange your DNA sequences and cause an insertion mutation. This will make your codons group of differently, and possibly give you a BAD mutation. However, sometimes the codons still make the same proteins as its supposed to, the mutation will NOT affect you.

Example:

THE BIG FAT CAT ATE THE RAT

Now, if i were to add a letter (X) to this and make the letters group up in three aka the codons:

THE XBI GFA TCA TAT ETH ERA T

As you can you can see, adding a base pair in a DNA insertion will usually have a negative effect, specifically a insertion mutation.

A 6.3 μC electric charge is placed in an Electric Field with a magnitude of 5.0 x 105 charge due to the Electric Field? N/C. Wha

EastWind [94]

Answer:

F = 3.15 N

Explanation:

Given electric charge, q = 6.3 μC

The magnitude of electric field, $E=5\times 10^5\ N/C$

We need to find the electric force on the charge due to the electric field. The electric force is given by :

F = qE

Putting all the values,

$F=6.3\times 10^{-6}\times 5\times 10^5\\\\F=3.15\ N$

So, the required force on the charge is 3.15 N.
