<span>Heat from the Sun is transferred to the sand without direct contact. This heat is then transferred to your feet by direct contact.</span>

The second sentence best represents the situation because the sun does not touch the sand so direct contact is not made. Then, your feet do touch the sand so direct contact is made. Thus, "Heat from the sun is transferred to the sand without direct contact. This heat is then transferred to your feet by direct contact." is the best answer.

Bohr’s atomic model differed from Rutherford's because it explained that electrons exist in specified energy levels surrounding

insens350 [35]

Answer:

electrons exist in specified energy levels

Explanation:

In its gold-foil scattering with alpha particles, Rutherford proved that the plum-pudding model of the atom theorised by Thomson was wrong.

From his experiment, Rutherford inferred that the atom actually consists of a very small nucleus, where all the positive charge is concentrated, and the rest of the atom is basically empty, with the electrons (negatively charged) orbiting around the nucleus at very large distance.

However, Rutherford did not specify anything about the orbits of the electrons. Later, Bohr predicted that the electrons actually orbit the nucleus in specific orbits, each orbit corresponding to a specific energy level. Bohr's model found confirmation in the observation of the emission spectrum lines: when an electron in one of the higher energy level jumps down into an orbit with lower energy, the atom emits a photon which has an energy exactly equal to the difference in energy between the two orbits (and this energy of the photon corresponds to a precise wavelength).

Consider two uniform solid spheres where both have the same diameter, but one has twice the mass of the other. how much larger i

egoroff_w [7]

<span>The moment of inertia of the large sphere will be twice that of the smaller sphere.
The formula for the moment of inertia for a solid sphere is:
I = (2/5)mr^2
where
I = moment of inertia
m = mass
r = radius

Since both spheres have the same diameter, they also have the same radius, so the only change is their mass. And the moment of inertia is directly proportional to their mass as shown by the above formula. So the sphere with twice the mass will have twice the moment of inertia, or 2 times.</span>

Ryan applied a force of 10N and moved a book 30 cm in the direction of the force. How much was the workdone by Ryan?

Xelga [282]

<h2><u>Question</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

Ryan applied a force of 10N and moved a book 30 cm in the direction of the force. How much was the work done by Ryan?

<h2><u>Answer:</u><u>-</u></h2>

<h3>Given,</h3>

=> Force applied by Ryan = 10N

=> Distance covered by the book after applying force = 30 cm

30 cm = 0.3 m (distance)

=> Work done = Force × Distance

=> 10 × 0.3

=> 3 Joules

$\small \boxed{work \: done \: by \: Ryan \: = 3 \: Joules}$
