Answer:
Electrostatic Discharge during the equalization of the separated positively and negatively charged electrostatic charges in the storm clouds.
Explanation:
In nature, lightning occurs during the discharge of the large charges contained in the separated positively and negatively particles in the atmosphere in the process equalizing (neutralizing) of the charges, leading to the release of instantaneous energy in the form of heat, light and sound
During a storm, as the clouds mixes by the wind with different densities, they rub each other forming electrostatic charges. The lighter positively charged particles rise to the top clouds while the heavier negatively charged particles move to the bottom. The charges continue to add up to a point where their magnitudes is large enough such that a big spark or lightening occurs between the positive and negative charges during the process of re-equalization of the charges to revert to neutrality.
<u>Answer</u>:
(C) The positive charge of the alpha particles and the negative charge of the electrons are the properties Rutherford used in his experiment
<u>Explanation</u>:
In his scattering experiment, scientist Ernest Rutherford used the property of positively charged alpha particles and negatively charge electrons. He performed this experiment by passing some of the alpha particles through a gold foil. The result was that the some alpha particles scattered while some passed through the gold foil without collision.
He concluded that the alpha particles are centrally positively charged and needed a large amount repelling force. This experiment of Rutherford is also known as Rutherford model of atom. This experiment helped him in doing so many other discoveries.
The correct answer is: 1792g or 1800g.
