Democritus was the one who did not have experimental evidence to support his theory of the atom.

Answer: Option 4

Explanation:

The discovery of atoms were first stated by Democritus but due to the absence of any experimental proof, his statement was not noted as significant at that time.

After this, Dalton made the specific assumptions formulating some postulates for the atomic theory with proof. Then the cathode rays tube experiments performed by Thomson lead to the formation of plum pudding models of atom.

This is followed by Rutherford’s gold foil experiment discovering the presence of nucleus inside the atoms. So, Democritus first stated but due to absence of experimental evidences, his theory of atoms were not supported at that time.

Movies and TV shows sometimes portray a person being thrown backwards a sizable distance as a result of being struck by a bullet

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m

Explanation:

given,

mass of the person = 60.3-kg

mass of the bullet = 10 gram = 0.01 Kg

velocity of bullet = 389 m/s

angle made with the horizontal = 45°

using conservation of momentum.

M v + m u = ( M + m ) V

60.3 x 0 + 0.01 x 389 = (60.3 + 0.01) V

$V = \dfrac{3.89}{60.31}$

V = 0.0645 m/s

for calculation of range

$R = \dfrac{V^2sin 2 \theta}{g}$

$R = \dfrac{0.0645^2sin 2 (45^0)}{9.8}$

R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m

the distance actor fall is R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m

1. A 4-N force is used to move an object 2 m in 10 s. Which of the following is the power generated while moving the object?

guajiro [1.7K]

Power is the work done per unit time. Therefore,

$\begin{gathered} p=\frac{w}{t} \\ \text{where} \\ w=\text{work done} \\ t=\text{time} \end{gathered}$

Therefore,

$\begin{gathered} \text{work done=fd} \\ f=force=4N \\ d=\text{displacement}=2m \\ t=2\sec s \\ p=\frac{fd}{t}=\frac{4\times2}{10}=\frac{8}{10}=0.8watts \end{gathered}$

Given:A=6x-2y B:-4x-8y C:-3x+9y. Commute A+B-C

DedPeter [7]

A+B-C
A = 6x - 2y
B = -4x - 8y
C = -3x + 9y

(6x - 2y) + (-4x - 8y) - (-3x + 9y)
(6x - 2y) + (-4x - 8y) + (3x - 9y)
2x -10y + (3x - 9y)

5x - 19y
