6 0

Rutherford is credited for discovering the nucleus of the atom. This occurred after he performed his famous gold foil experiment - by exposing a source of alpha particles to a gold foil to see how the particles deflected against the atoms of the foil, he discovered that the observed pattern only made sense when he considered the idea of a nucleus in this situation.

Which phrase describes an electromagnetic wave
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

<u>a transverse wave consisting of changing electric fields and changing magnetic fields.</u>

Explanation:

An electromagnetic wave is a wave generated by the vibration of perpendicular electric and magnetic fields, which may progate through vacuum (empty space) or a material medium.

All electromagnetic waves propagate at the same speed in vacuum. This speed is approximately 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s. Which is generally referred as the speed of light, but it is the same constant speed of any electromagnetic wave in the vacuum, c.

In general, waves transfer energy when they travel, but only electromagnetic waves can travel in vacuum. The waves that cannot travel in vacuum are named mechanical waves (they need a medium to travel).

There are two types of waves depending on how they propagate: transverse waves and longitudinal waves. The transverse waves travel perperdiculary to the direcction of the vibration, while longitudinal waves travel parallel to the direction of the vibration.

The classical example of transverse waves is a rope that oscilates up and down. The classical example of  longitudinal waves is a spring that you pull and push by an end and so it  moves forward and back. Sound is also a longitudinal wave.

Planet Tatoone is about 1.7 AU from its Sun. Approximately how long will it take for light to travel from the Sun to Tatoone in
Radda [10]

Answer:

The value is   t =  14.129 \  minutes    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The distance of planet Tatoone is  d =  1.7 \ AU  =  1.7 *1.496* 10^{11}=2.543*10^{11} \ m

   The  speed of light is  c =  3.0*10^{8} \  m/  s

Generally the time taken is mathematically represented as

     t =  \frac{d}{c}

=> t =  \frac{2.543*10^{11}}{3.0*10^{8} }

=>    t =  847.7 \  s

Now converting to minutes

       t =  \frac{847.7}{60}

   =>     t =  14.129 \  minutes
