This image shows a stream of positively charged particles being directed at gold foil. The positively charged particles are call

ed "alpha particles” and each one is like a nucleus without any electrons.

Some of the heavy particles bounced off the foil, because there are positive particles spread throughout the atom

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>It is deflecting towards point X because it is hitting the proton or neutron</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The experiment shows the model of Rutherford atomic model and he concluded that every atom contains a nucleus where all of its positive charge and most of its mass are concentrated. So when the ray passes straight it meant that most of the place inside atom is empty but when it directly hits the neucleus it would come back at 180 degrees and when it passes with neucleus it bends away with the angle of 90 degrees.

The graph below shows the velocity of a car as it attempts to set a speed record. At what point is the car the fastest?
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

B). 3.4 s

Explanation:

As we can see the graph is given between velocity and time

so here we can see that the velocity is changing here with time and initially for some time it moves with constant speed

Then it's speed decreases to next few second and then speed increases to its maximum value

The time after which velocity comes to its maximum value will reach after t = 3 s

so out of the all given options most correct option will be

t = 3.4 s

sladkih [1.3K]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Consider the cylindrical weir of diameter 3m and length 6m. If the fluid on the left has a specific gravity of 1.6 and on the right has a specific gravity of 0.8, Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant force.

Answer:

- the magnitude of the resultant force is 557.32 kN

- the direction of resultant force is  48.29°

Explanation:

Given the data in the question and the diagram below,

First we work on the force on the left hand side.

Left Horizontal

F_{LH = βgAr

here, h = 3/2 = 1.5 m, β = 1.6, g = 9.81 m/s², A = 3 m × 6 m = 18 m²

we substitute

F_{LH = βgAh = ( 1.6 × 1000 ) × 9.81 × 18 × 1.5 = 423792 N

Left Vertical

F_{LV = ( βgπh² / 2 ) × W

we substitute

F_{LV = [ ( ( 1.6 × 1000 ) × 9.81  × π(1.5)² ) / 2 ] × 6 = 332845.458 N

Now we go to the right hand side

Right Horizontal

F_{RH = βgAh

here, h' = 1.5/2 = 0.75 m, β = 0.8, g = 9.81 m/s², A = 1.5 m × 6 m = 9 m²

we substitute

F_{RH = ( 0.8 × 1000 ) × 9.81 × 9 × 0.75 ) = 52974 N

Right Vertical

F_{RV = ( βgπh² / 4 ) × W

we substitute

F_{RV = [ ( ( 0.8 × 1000 ) × 9.81  × π(1.5)² ) / 4 ] × 6 =  83211.36 N

Hence

Fx = F_{LH - F_{RH = 52974 N - 423792 N =  370818 N

Fy = F_{LV + F_{RV = 332845.458 N + 83211.36 N = 416056.818 N

R = √( Fx² + Fy² ) = √[ (370818 N)² + (416056.818 N)² ] = 557323.3 N

R = 557.32 kN

Therefore, the magnitude of the resultant force is 557.32 kN

Direction of resultant force;

tanθ = Fy / Fx

we substitute

tanθ = 416056.818 N / 370818 N

tanθ = 1.121997

θ = tan⁻¹( 1.121997 )

θ = 48.29°

Therefore, the direction of resultant force is  48.29°

Define one metre length​
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The metre is currently defined as the length of the path travelled by light in a vacuum in 1299 792 458 of a second. The metre was originally defined in 1793 as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole along a great circle, so the Earth's circumference is approximately 40000 km
