Explain how a rotating electric fan might be used to model the atom. explain how the rotating fan is unlike an atom.

1 answer:

3 0

A fan may be used to model an atom because the fan blades form something similar to a electron cloud. But there is really nothing to model the neutrons and protons. Also the fan is flat like where an atom is more 3-D sphere-like.

hope this helps

Ur welcome

have a great day (:

A car traveling at 60 mph has how much more energy than a car going at 20 mph? How many times does the kinetic energy of a car i

irinina [24]

K.E. increases by 9 times

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of a car is given by:

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the car

v is its speed

From this definition, we see that the kinetic energy depends on the square of the velocity. Assuming that both cars have same mass, m, the kinetic energy of the first car is:

$K_1 = \frac{1}{2}m(60)^2$
