<h3>About Atom:</h3>

Atom consists of a central nucleus that is usually surrounded by one or more electrons .Each electron is negatively charged. The nucleus is positively charged and contains one or more relatively heavy particles known as protons and neutrons.

An early model of the atom was developed by the physicist Ernest Rutherford in 1913. He was the first to suggest that atoms are like miniature solar systems except that the attractive force is not caused by gravity, but by opposing electrical charged.

Hope this helps....

when striking, the pike, a predatory fish, can accelerate from rest to a speed of 4.0 m/sm/s in 0.15 ss

Alina [70]

The distance covered will be 0.301m.

firstly we will new to calculate acceleration (a).

we can do so using newtons first law of motion.

v=u + a × t

where

a is the acceleration

t is the time

from here we get

a=(v-u)/t

a=(4-0)/0.15

a=26.67m/s²

using newtons second law of motion

s=u.t+1/2at²

where s is distance travelled in t seconds.

we get,

s=0.301m

A vinyl record is played by rotating the record so that an approximately circular groove in the vinyl slides under a stylus. Bum

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Hits per second=199 hit/s

Explanation:

#Given the angular velocity, $\omega=33\frac{1}{3} rev/min$ , radius of the record $r=0.1m$ and the distance between any two successive bumps on the groove as $d=1.75mm$ .
