The gold foil experiment led to the conclusion that each atom in the foil was composed mostly of empty space because most alpha

particles directed at the foil
(1) passed through the foil
(2) remained trapped in the foil
(3) were deflected by the nuclei in gold atoms
(4) were deflected by the electrons in gold atoms

Answer:

Option 1

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 1

The gold foil experiment was conducted by Rutherford. This experiment was conducted to study the Atom.

In the experiment Alpha rays from the emitter are passed through gold foil and there was a receiver that was present there to intercept the alpha rays.

The outcome of the result was that most of the alpha particle pass through foil undeflected and very few rays revert back on the original path from the heavy mass present at the center.

Later this heavy mass was known Nucleus.

Hence, most alpha particles passed through the foil.

Answer:

(1) passed through the foil

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford conducted an experiment using an alpha particle emitter projected towards a gold foil and the gold foil was surrounded by a fluorescent screen which glows upon being struck by an alpha particle.

  • When the experiment was conducted he found that most of the alpha particles went away without any deflection (due to the empty space) glowing the fluorescent screen right at the point of from where they were emitted.
  • While a few were deflected at reflex angle because they were directed towards the center of the nucleus having the net effective charge as positive.
  • And some were acutely deflected due to the field effect of the positive charge of the proton inside the nucleus. All these  conclusions were made based upon the spot of glow on the fluorescent screen.

Answer:

a) Team A will win.

b) The losing team will accelerate towards the middle line with 0.01 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Given that Team-A pulls with a force , F_{1} = 50N

and Team-B pulls with a force , F_{1} = 45N

∵ F_{1} > F_{2}

The rope will move in the direction of force F_{1}.

∴ Team-A will win.

b) Considering both the teams as one system of total mass , m = 246+253 = 499 kg

Net force on the system , F = F_{1} - F_{2} = 50-45 = 5N

Applying Newtons first law to the system ,

F = ma , where 'a' is the acceleration of the system.

Since , both the teams are connected by the same rope , their acceleration would be the same.

∴ 5 = 499×a

∴ a = 0.01 m/s^{2}

Can you access an instance variable from a static method? explain why or why not.
marusya05 [52]
<span>The reason a static method can't access instance variable is because static references the class not a specific instance of the class so there is no instance variable to access.</span>

How long does water evaporation take? What factors influence it?
svetoff [14.1K]
There is no certain time on how long it takes. Because the factors will always be different and the factors heavily affect the evaporation time. Some factors include: humidity, heat, how the sun is visible (whether clouds are covering it or not)

Twenty grams of a solid at 70°C is place in 100 grams of a fluid at 20°C. Thermal equilibrium is reached at 30°C.
zaharov [31]

Answer:

c. is more than that of the fluid.

Explanation:

This problem is based on the conservation of energy and the concept of thermal equilibrium

heat= m s \Delta T&#10;

m= mass

s= specific heat

\DeltaT=change in temperature

let s1= specific heat of solid and s2= specific heat of liquid

then

Heat lost by solid= 20(s_1)(70-30)=800s_1&#10;

Heat gained by fluid=100(s_2)(30-20)=1000s_2&#10;

Now heat gained = heat lost

therefore,

1000 S_2=800 S_1

S_1=1.25 S_2

so the specific heat of solid is more than that of the fluid.
