Answer: electron exists

Each metal emits cathode rays. J.J. Thomson used small cathode ray tube in his experiment. On the side of the tube, cathode rays were produced which were passed through the anode. Thereafter, magnetic field was applied across the cathode ray tube using a magnet. He noted that the cathode rays were deflected by the magnet. The path of cathode rays was detected using fluorescence on a screen. The deflection of the path was independent of the material of the anode and the gas in the jar and dependent on just the material of cathode. In the absence of magnet, electrometer detected negative charge. This negative charge was associated with the ray itself and could not be separated.  

This negative charge is possessed by electrons, the subatomic particle.

A crossbow is fired horizontally off a cliff with an initial velocity of 15 m/s. If the arrow takes 4s to hit the ground, what i
omeli [17]

Answer:

The range of the projectile is 60 meters

Explanation:

To determine the range/distance of the projectile, the formula for velocity is used;

velocity = distance/time

where velocity is 15 m/s

time is 4 seconds

distance is unknown

From the formula above, distance is made the subject and thus

distance = velocity × time

distance = 15 × 4

distance = 60 m

The range of the projectile is 60 meters

Which of the following include exact numbers? a) The speed of light in a vacuum is a physical constant; to the nearest m/s, it i
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Explanation:

Exact numbers are those numbers which are known with 100% certainty  or accuracy . Numbers having decimal are generally not exact because they are a part of long drawn decimal number after rounding off  to certain places after decimal.

On the basis of this definition we can say as follows

speed of light is 2.99792 ×108 . Here the number quoted is not an exact number because it is a rounded off figure of speed of light to five digits  after decimal .

Similarly density of mercury too is rounded off to two digits after decimal

so it is also not a exact number.

There are 3600 s in 1 h . Here 3600 s is  an  exact number because one hour has been defined as 3600 s . It is not measured by any instrument.

In 2003, the United States had 50 states. Here 50 is an exact number .

In the video, forces acting on the car that are parallel to the direction of motion are analyzed. how are these forces related?
expeople1 [14]
<span>The drag force acts opposite to the direction the cars' motion and the propelling force is in the direction of the motion. These are the two forces acting on the car and since they are both equal and opposite in direction, they cancel out each other. Thus, the car is able to move at a constant speed without changing its direction or momentum.</span>
