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.

Soloha48 [4]

An object with non-zero mass (even negligible mass is non-zero) will never reach the speed of light. Due to relativistic effects, each "unit" of acceleration becomes less effective at increasing your velocity (relative to some other object, of course) as your relative velocity approaches the speed of light.

And even if there was a way, If you would accelerate to the 99,99% of the speed light in just 1 second, you would experience a G-force of aprox. 30,600,000 g's which is enough to kill you in a few seconds

On the way to school, the bus speeds up from 20 m/s to 36 m/s in 4 seconds. What distance

Tresset [83]

Answer B. 112 m

Step-by-Step Explanation

initial velocity u = 20 m /s
final velocity v = 36 m /s
time taken t = 4 s
acceleration = (v - U) / t
= (36 - 20) / 4
a=4m/s2
from the formula
7-u2=2as , sis distance covered
putting the values
362-202=2×4×s
1296 - 400 = 8 x S
S= 112 m

Describe the factors that cause static friction between two surfaces to increase.

maw [93]

Answer : The static friction depends on two factors

1. Roughness of the surface

2. Force

Explanation : Friction occur when surface is not smooth.

The formula of friction is

$F= \mu mg$

Static friction depends on the roughness of the surface and force which is trying to push to object along the surface.

Static friction is caused by the attraction between two surfaces that are in contact. when the surface will rough and the object will heavier then the force will be larger.

If all this energy is added to 50 kg of water (the amount of water in a 165-lb person) at 37 ∘C, what is the final state of the

Reika [66]

Answer:

Vapors

Explanation:

We take into account that all the energy from the lightning has been transformed into steam.

$\Delta U = Q - W\\Q = mC \Delta T\\Q = mL$

We calculate the amount of energy required by water to convert into steam.

$Q_{water} = 50 \times \times 4180 \times (100-37)\\= 1.132 \times 10^7 \ J$

$Q_{change\ to\ steam} = 50 \times 2.256 \times 106 \\= 1.128 \times 10^8 \ J$

$Q_{total} = 1.132 \times 10^7 + 1.128 \times 10^8\\= 1.126 \times 10^8 \ J$

From the lightning we received $10^{10} \ J$ of energy, out of which $1.126 \times 10^8$ has been used to convert the water into steam.

Energy left = $10^{10} - 1.126 \times 10^8 = 9.88 \times 10^9 \ J$

We use this energy to convert steam into vapors.

$Q = \Delta E$

$Q = \Delta E = mc (T_{f} - T{i})\\T_{f} = \frac {\Delta E}{mc} + T_{i}\\ \\T_{f} = 100 + \frac{9.88 \times 10^{10}}{50 \times 1970}\\T_{f} = 100 + 10^8\\T_{f} = 10 ^{ \ 8} \ {^ \circ } C$

With this temperature, we can easily interpret that the vapors will be dissociated in hydrogen and oxygen particles.
