Rutherford's Gold foil experiment involved the firing of atoms at a piece of gold foil only a few atoms thick. Rutherford expected that the particles would go straight through, but some were deflected. This experiment proved that atoms have a dense positively charged nucleus.

Answer: d. They showed that atoms have a dense nucleus.

Answer:

d) They showed that atoms have a dense nucleus.

Explanation:

Thomson's model predicted that the atom is composed of negatively charged electrons, which is surrounded by positively charged cloud. This was called Plum pudding model of the atom.

But Rutherford proved it to be incorrect . His gold foil experiment showed that the atom's central part is heavy and positively charged. The deflections of the alpha particles showed that the heavy central region is surrounded by negatively charged particles called electrons.

Answer:

The correct option is;

Sphere I is positively charged and sphere II is negatively charged

Explanation:

The charging of the spheres by induction is achieved by introducing a charge to the metal spheres that are insulated from the ground to prevent loss of charge by placing them on insulating stand

The two spheres are brought into contact by the connection of a conducting wire between the spheres I and II

The presence of the positively charged sphere III draws attracts electrons towards sphere II while the net positive charge moves towards sphere I

While the spheres I and II are still polarized, the conducting wire is removed while the presence of sphere III continues to keep sphere II negative compared to sphere I

After removing the connecting wire, sphere III is removed leaving the excess negative charge on sphere II and the excess positive charge on sphere I

The net charges then evenly redistribute themselves on each sphere creating two oppositely charged spheres.

What demonstrates the flow of energy and materials through

Tcecarenko [31]

A. Food chain

A food web also shows the flow of energy and materials through an ecosystem but in a complex web, not a single chain. A biogeochemical cycle does not deal with the flow of energy/materials through an ecosystem at all.

Complete Question

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a E = $1.685*10^3 N/C$

b E = $36.69*10^3 N/C$

c E = 0 N/C

d $V = 6.7*10^3 V$

e $V = 26.79*10^3V$

f V = $34.67 *10^3 V$

g $V= 44.95*10^3 V$

h $V= 44.95*10^3 V$

i $V= 44.95*10^3 V$

Explanation:

From the question we are given that

The first charge $q_1 = 2.00 \mu C = 2.00*10^{-6} C$

The second charge $q_2 =1.00 \muC = 1.00*10^{-6}$

The first radius $R_1 = 0.500m$

The second radius $R_2 = 1.00m$

$Generally \ Electric \ field = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1+\ q_2}{r^2}$

And $Potential \ Difference = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1 }{r}+\frac{q_2}{R_2} ]$

The objective is to obtain the the magnitude of electric for different cases

And the potential difference for other cases

Considering a

r = 4.00 m

$E = \frac{((2+1)*10^{-6})*8.99*10^9}{16}$

$= 1.685*10^3 N/C$

Considering b

$r = 0.700 m \ , R_2 > r > R_1$

This implies that the electric field would be

$E = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\frac{q_1}{r^2}$

This because it the electric filed of the charge which is below it in distance that it would feel

$E = 8*99*10^9 \frac{2*10^{-6}}{0.4900}$

= $36.69*10^3 N/C$

Considering c

r = 0.200 m

=> $r$

The electric field = 0

This is because the both charge are above it in terms of distance so it wont feel the effect of their electric field

Considering d

r = 4.00 m

=> $r > R_1 >r>R_2$

Now the potential difference is

$V =\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{q_1 + \ q_2}{r} = 8.99*10^9 * \frac{3*10^{-6}}{4} = 6.7*10^3 V$

This so because the distance between the charge we are considering is further than the two charges given

Considering e

r = 1.00 m $R_2 = r > R_1$

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2} ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{1.00} \frac{1.00*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 26.79 *10^3 V$

Considering f

$r = 0.700 m \ , R_2 > r > R_1$

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2} ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.700} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 34.67 *10^3 V$

Considering g

$r =0.500\m , R_1 >r =R_1$

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{r} +\frac{q_2}{R_2} ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V$

Considering h

$r =0.200\m , R_1 >R_1>r$

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{R_1} +\frac{q_2}{R_2} ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V$

Considering i

$r =0\ m \ , R_1 >R_1>r$

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} [\frac{q_1}{R_1} +\frac{q_2}{R_2} ] = 8.99*10^9 * [\frac{2.00*10^{-6}}{0.500} \frac{1.0*10^{-6}}{1.00} ] = 44.95 *10^3 V$
