The main difference between the model of the atom proposed by Greek philosophers and the model proposed centuries later by Dalton is that the Greek one was mainly speculative and philosophical - it wasn't based on real evidence, but on their suggestions and thoughts about the matter. On the other hand, Dalton had the means to prove his theory using viable evidence, not just speculations.

natita [175]

Answer:

Explanation:

She's correct but doesn't mean the wagon cannot put into motion. The force that she applied on the wagon, according to Newton's 2nd law, would have generated an acceleration, which translates into motion. The reaction force the wagon applies on her due to Newton's 3rd law, would not hinder its own motion.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

A sample of 5.2 mg  decays to .65 mg or to 1/8 of its original amount.

1/8 = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 or 3 half-lives.

3 * 30.07 = 90 yrs for 5.2 mg to decay to .65 mg

You can get these other numbers similarly:

5.2 / .0102 = 510  requires about 9  half-lives which is 30 * 9 = 270 yrs

How many infrared photons of frequency 2.57 x 1013 Hz would need to be absorbed simultaneously by a tightly bound molecule to br
victus00 [196]

Answer:

94

Explanation:

f = 2.57 x 10^13 Hz

E = 10 eV = 10 x 1.6 x 10^-19 J = 1.6 x 10^-18 J

Energy of each photon = h f

Where, h is Plank's constant

Energy of each photon = 6.63 x 10^-34 x 2.57 x 10^13 = 1.7 x 10^-20 J

Number of photons = Total energy / energy of one photon

N = (1.6 x 10^-18) / (1.7 x 10^-20) = 94.11 = 94

Describe how impacts between objects in the solar system have helped create notable features in the solar system such as craters
konstantin123 [22]
When 'The big bang' happened lots of large pieces of molten rock was flying around the solar system. As the rocks crashed together they got bigger and as the got bigger they attracted more rocks. Some scientists think that a large piece of molten rock hit the still developing Earth and created the Moon. This impact also caused the Earths angled spin. The Moon got trapped in Earth's orbit and has stayed ever since. Small astroids have hit the Moon causing craters. The Earth doesn't get hit as much because of our thicker atmosphere. Hope this helps!
