Answer:

move at a constant velocity

Explanation:

When the friction is present the engine helps move the probe by constantly doing work against the friction. But when the friction is absent then there is no need for the engine to work all the time. According to newton's first law, no object can change its state of rest or uniform motion with constant velocity without an external force. When the engine is shut off, the probe will continue to move at a constant speed due to inertia.

Continue on the momentum it has. The probe will continue in the same direction it is moving because there are no forces to act against it. I think this is the answer you are looking for...?

A student made the following observations about a squirrel’s movements:
dalvyx [7]

The correct option is <u>D</u>.

Qualitative observations are observations that are made using our senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and feel. These observations do not involve numbers or measurements of any kind.

The student's observations regarding the squirrel as is mentioned in options A, B and C involve measurements. Therefore these are not qualitative observations.

Option D, however, is made on the basis of sight, where the student observes the squirrel moving in a zigzag manner.

Therefore, of all the three observations, the student's observation that the squirrel ran in a zigzag pattern is the qualitative observation.

Which scientist described an atom made of a solid positively charged substance with electrons dispersed throughout it?.
swat32

The scientist that described an atom made a solid positively charged substance with electrons dispersed throughout it was: Ernest Rutherford

In 1911 Ernest Rutherford proposed his atomic model in which he considered the atom as a positively, densely charged center called a nucleus in which the electrons circulate around the core with a negative charge.

<h3>What is an atom?</h3>

The atom is the smallest part of the composition of matter, it is indivisible and is composed of a nucleus that has protons and neutrons, and around the nucleus there are the electrons.
