Answer:

The three choices are correct where, choice (b) If the atoms are moved farther apart, they experience forces resisting the separation and begin to move toward each other. And for choice (c) If the atoms are pushed closer together, they experience forces resisting the compression and begin to move far away from each other. Choice (a) also correct where a spring exerts forces to bring balls (atoms) closer together and also exerts forces to move balls (atoms) apart.

DochEvi [55]

In Rutherford's gold foil experiment, some of the positive particles would pass through the foil and some would bounce off. This led to a new theory that all of the positive subatomic particles were in the center of the atom instead of evenly spread throughout.

the kinetic energy of an object with mass m moving with a velocity of 5 m/s is 25 j what will be its kinetic energy when its vel

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

100 J, 225 J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is given by:

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

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of the object

In this problem, the initial kinetic energy of the object is

K = 25 J

Then, the velocity is doubled, which means

v' = 2v

Therefore, the new kinetic energy will be

$K'=\frac{1}{2}m(2v)^2 = 4(\frac{1}{2}mv^2)=4K$

Therefore, the kinetic energy has quadrupled:

$K' = 4(25)=100 J$

Later, the velocity is tripled, which means

v'' = 3v

Therefore, the new kinetic energy will be

$K''=\frac{1}{2}m(3v)^2 = 9(\frac{1}{2}mv^2)=9K$

Therefore, the kinetic energy has increased by a factor of 9:

$K' = 9(25)=225 J$

Communities of organisms coexist in organized, balanced _____?

poizon [28]

Answer: C- ecosystem

An ecosystem is a biological community in which living beings interacts with their non-living environment. An ecosystem consists of abiotic ( non-living factors like water, sunlight, wind and soil) and biotic factors such as plants and animals. Ecosystem allows not only the interaction of abiotic and biotic factors but it favors the interaction between the living species. For example animals are dependent upon plants so as to derive their food. The coexistence of organisms favors the diversity of land forms on earth.
