If thomson's model of the atom is correct, what would rutherford have seen in his experiments

Physics

gayaneshka [121]4 years ago

If Thomson's atomic model was correct then it means the atom must be a positively charged sphere and electrons are randomly distributed in it.

Now in Rutherford's experiment we can see that he bombarded alpha particles towards the nuclei of an atom and then he observed the path of the alpha particles

Here in that case he will see that 100% of alpha particles will get deflected from it's initial path due to the repulsion of atom which is also to be assumed as positively charged

So in that case none of the alpha particle will move out undeviating in it's initial path

So this would be the experimental analysis of Rutherford experiment if whole atomic model presented by Thomson was correct

A.) A bullet accelerates at 8000 m/s2
lukranit [14]

Answer:

0.02 s

160 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 1.6 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 8000 m/s²

A) Find t.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

1.6 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (8000 m/s²) t²

t = 0.02 s

B) Find v.

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (8000 m/s²) (1.6 m)

v = 160 m/s

What are the different types of Energy transformations and Energy Transfers?
Harman [31]

Explanation:

Here are some of the ways that energy can change (transform) from one type to another:

The Sun transforms nuclear energy into heat and light energy.

Our bodies convert chemical energy in our food into mechanical energy for us to move.

An electric fan transforms electrical energy into kinetic energy.

A 59 kg man has a total mechanical energy of 150,023. J. If he is swinging downward and is currently 2.6 m above the ground, wha
Alborosie

Answer:

v = 70.95 \ m/s.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of the man, m = 59 \ kg

Total mechanical energy, E_{i} = 150,023 \ \rm J

Height, h = 2.6 \ m

Suppose there is no external force acting on the man. In this situation, the total mechanical energy (kinetic + potential) will remain steady.

Let the speed of the man at 2.6 m be <em>v</em>.

Thus,

E_{i} = E_{f}

E_{i} = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} + mgh

150023 = 0.5 \times 59 \times v^{2} + 59 \times 9.80 \times 2.6

\Rightarrow \ v = 70.95 \ m/s.
