Answer:

Apparent retrograde motion

Explanation:

Planets travel in an aparent irregular way. Their movement along the space from west to east, is interrupted during brief intervals of time by an apparent retrograde motion from east to west.  This apparent retrograde motion is preceded by a speed decrease until planet stops, then, it goes back to a stationary position again and resumes its direct motion from west to east.

The planets move eastward against the background of fixed stars with the exception of Venus, Uranus and Pluto moving westward as seen in Earth's sky . This apparent retreating movement is called Retrograde motion. It is illusion created by Earth's movement going by outer planets in their respective orbits.

Zina [86]

Years of research have demonstrated that rats are intelligent creatures who experience pain and pleasure, care about one another, are able to read the emotions of others, and would assist other rats, even at their own expense.

<h3>Experiments:</h3>

In trials carried out at Brown University in the 1950s, rats were trained to press a lever for food, but they stopped pressing the lever when they noticed that with each press, a rat in an adjacent cage would scream in pain (after experiencing an electric shock).

Rats were trained to press a lever to lower a block that was hanging from a hoist by electric shocks administered by experimenters. A rat was subsequently hoisted into a harness by the experimenters, and according to their notes, "This animal normally shrieked and wriggled sufficiently while dangling, and if it did not, it was jabbed with a sharp pencil until it exhibited indications of discomfort." Even if it wasn't in danger of receiving a shock, a rat watching the scenario from the floor would pull a lever to lower the hapless rodent to safety.

Which best describes how the current scientific model of the atom was developed?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

A. The model was the result of hundreds of years of experiments.

Explanation:

Since it is not possible to visualize an atom in isolation, scientists have spent hundreds of years experimenting and creating atomic models, that is, images that serve to explain the constitution, properties and behavior of atoms.

The earliest who imagined the existence of the atoms were the Greek philosophers Leucippus and Democritus in about 450 BCE. According to them, everything would be formed by tiny indivisible particles. Hence the origin of the name "atom", which comes from the Greek a (no) and tome (parts).

But in the nineteenth century, some scientists began to conduct experimental tests increasingly accurate thanks to technological advances. Not only was it discovered that everything was actually made up of tiny particles, but it was also possible to understand more and more about the atomic structure.

Scientists used the information discovered by other scholars to develop the atomic model. In this way, the discoveries of one scientist were replaced by those of others. The concepts that were correct remained, but those that proved to be non-real were now abandoned. Thus, new atomic models were created. This series of discoveries of the atomic structure until arriving at the accepted models today was known like the evolution of the atomic model.

Two identical loudspeakers are some distance apart. A person stands 5.80 m from one speaker and 3.90 m from the other. What is t
NikAS [45]

Answer:

f = 632 Hz

Explanation:

As we know that for destructive interference the path difference from two loud speakers must be equal to the odd multiple of half of the wavelength

here we know that

\Delta x = (2n + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}

given that path difference from two loud speakers is given as

\Delta x = 5.80 m - 3.90 m

\Delta x = 1.90 m

now we know that it will have fourth lowest frequency at which destructive interference will occurs

so here we have

\Delta x = 1.90 = \frac{7\lambda}{2}

\lambda = \frac{2 \times 1.90}{7}

\lambda = 0.54 m

now for frequency we know that

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

f = \frac{343}{0.54} = 632 Hz

A soldier throws a grenade horizontally from the top of a cliff. Which of the following curves best describes the path taken by
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

4. Parabola

Explanation:

The motion of the flight of the grenade is a projectile motion, it's shape is best illustrated using a parabolic diagram.

It's not a circle as the path is not totally round.

It's not an ellipse as the path of motion is not a a completely bounded shape.

Its not a hyperbola as a hyperbola is an open curve with two branches.

Its a parabolic shape because a parabola has just one branch
