If the scientist repeats the experiment over and over and gets the same results. Also if the scientist peer reviews the experiment to make sure there is no bias in his or her results.
Answer:
The Kinetic Energy decreases. The Total Energy stays the same
Explanation:
The TE stays the same, so if PE increases then KE will decrease.
Answer:
(D) The power supplied by the source decreases.
Explanation:
If additional resistors are connected in series, then the total resistance of the circuit is increased. By the Ohm’s Law, V = iR, the current decreases.
The power supplied by the source is P = i*i*R = i*(i*R). The term in the parenthesis is the voltage of the circuit and is constant. The ‘i’ outside decreases, therefore the power supplied by the source decreases.
Answer: An iron atom emits particles when it is struck by light (by the photoelectric effect)
Explanation:
The first atomic model was the one proposed by Jhon Dalton, according to which it is postulated that:
"Matter is made up of indivisible, indestructible and extremely small particles called atoms."
That is, <u>the atom is a solid and indivisible mass.
</u>
However, the fenomenom by which an iron atom emits particles when it is struck by light (known as the photoelectric effect) can not be explaind by this<u> indivisible atom</u> model.
To understand it better:
The <u>photoelectric effect</u> consists of the emission of electrons (electric current) that occurs when light falls on a metal surface under certain conditions.
This is possible by considering light as a stream of photons, where each of them has energy. <u>This energy is be able to pull an electron out of the crystalline lattice of the metal and communicate, in addition, a kinetic energy. </u>This means the atom is not indivisible, but it is a composition of different particles.
In fact, currently it is known that each atom is composed of a nucleus and one or more electrons attached to the nucleus, which is composed of one or more protons and typically a similar number of neutrons.
