Why do scientist use models to study atoms

1 answer:

6 0

Scientists use models to study atoms, Because atoms are very tiny, and almost impossible to cut open and look inside.. And the center of an atom is the nucleus and that is ever smaller.

Alex777 [14]

<span>the statement that is true regarding flexibility is : b. a joint's range of motion will be lost if the joint is not used regularly. Our body is like a machine. If we not constantly heat it up, our body will be more prone to injury. We can see that the old people who lived within the tribe in the middle of the mountain are far stronger than the one who lived in the city.</span>

Why is it important to understand the concept of density ?

N76 [4]

Density applies to many if not all aspects of life. With density you can explain why ice floats. You can explain why oxygen is on the earth, and not floating around in space( or being replaced by another gas). You can also explain why heat rises while cold air sinks.

A 2 L balloon filled with gas is warmed from 280 K to 700 K. What is the volume of the gas after it is heated?

irakobra [83]

Answer:

New volume, v2 = 0.8L

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Original Volume = 2L

Original Temperature = 280K

New Temperature = 700K

To find new volume V2, we would use Charles' law.

Charles states that when the pressure of an ideal gas is kept constant, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Charles is given by;

$VT = K$

$\frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2}$

Making V2 as the subject formula, we have;

$V_{2}= \frac{V1}{T1} * T_{2}$

$V_{2}= \frac{2}{700} * 280$

$V_{2}= 0.0029 * 280$

V2 = 0.8L

Therefore, the volume of the gas after it is heated is 0.8L.

The platform height for Olympic divers is 10 m. A 60 kg diver steps off the platform to begin his dive.

azamat

Answer:

a) Ep = 5886[J]; b) v = 14[m/s]; c) W = 5886[J]; d) F = 1763.4[N]

Explanation:

The potential energy can be found using the following expression, we will take the ground level as the reference point where the potential energy is equal to zero.

$E_{p} =m*g*h\\where:\\m = mass = 60[kg]\\g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]\\h = elevation = 10 [m]\\E_{p}=60*9.81*10\\E_{p}=5886[J]$

Since energy is conserved, that is, potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, the moment the harpsichord touches water, all potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.

$E_{p} = E_{k} \\5886 =0.5*m*v^{2} \\v = \sqrt{\frac{5886}{0.5*60} }\\v = 14[m/s]$

The work is equal to

W = 5886 [J]

We need to use the following equation and find the deceleration of the diver at the moment when he stops his velocity is zero.

$v_{f} ^{2}= v_{o} ^{2}-2*a*d\\where:\\d = 2.5[m]\\v_{f}=0\\v_{o} =14[m/s]\\Therefore\\a = \frac{14^{2} }{2*2.5} \\a = 39.2[m/s^2]$

By performing a sum of forces equal to the product of mass by acceleration (newton's second law), we can find the force that acts to reduce the speed of the diver to zero.

m*g - F = m*a

F = m*a - m*g

F = (60*39.2) - (60*9.81)

F = 1763.4 [N]
