What part of the atom is rutherford credited for discovering

Physics

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.

A 7300 kg rocket blasts off vertically from the launch pad with a constant upward acceleration of 2.20 m/s2 and feels no appreci
Simora [160]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall first calculate the velocity at height h = 575 m .

acceleration a = 2.2 m /s²

v² = u² + 2 a s

u is initial velocity , v is final velocity , s is height achieved

v² = 0 + 2 x 2.2 x 575

v = 50.3 m /s

After 575 m , rocket moves under free fall so g will act on it downwards

If it travels further by height H

from the relation

v² = u² - 2 g H

v = 0 , u = 50.3 m /s

H = ?

0 = 50.3² - 2 x 9.8 H

H = 129.08 m

Total height attained by rocket

= 575 + 129.08

= 704.08 m .

Predict whether the changes in enthalpy, entropy, and free energy will be positive or negative for the melting of ice, and expla
BlackZzzverrR [31]
  <span>Melting of ice is an endothermic process, meaning that energy is absorbed. When ice spontaneously melts, ΔH (change in enthalpy) is "positive". ΔS (entropy change) is also positive, because, becoming a liquid, water molecules lose their fixed position in the ice crystal, and become more disorganized. ΔG (free energy of reaction) is negative when a reaction proceeds spontaneously, as it happens in this case. Ice spontaneously melts at temperatures higher than 0°C. However, liquid water also spontaneously freezes at temperatures below 0°C. Therefore the temperature is instrumental in determining which "melting" of ice, or "freezing" of water becomes spontaneous. The whole process is summarized in the Gibbs free energy equation: 
ΔG = ΔH – TΔS</span>

Cloudy nights are usually warm because​
almond37 [142]

Answer:

When you have a cloudy night, the clouds prevent heat from escaping through the atmosphere and into space.

The clouds act like a blanket and trap the heat it, and that is why every time you have a cloudy night, it is always warmer than a clear night.

Number of complete 90.9 MHz radio waves over a 1.50 km distance
zimovet [89]
You could answer this right away IF you knew the length of each wave, right ?

Well,  Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency).

Speed = 3 x 10⁸ m/s  (the speed of light)
and
Frequency = 90.9 x 10⁶ Hertz.

So the length of each wave is  3 x 10⁸ / 90.9 x 10⁶  meters.

To answer the question, see how many pieces you have to cut
that 1.5 km into, in order for each piece to be 1 wavelength. 
It'll be

(1,500 meters) divided by (3 x 10⁸ meters/sec) / (90.9 x 10⁶ Hz)

To divide by a fraction, flip the fraction and then multiply:

(1500 meters) times (90.9 x 10⁶ Hz)/(3 x 10⁸ meters/sec)

=   454.5

Two point charges, initially 2.0 cm apart, experience a 1.0 N force. If they are moved to a new separation of 0.25 cm, what is t
den301095 [7]

Explanation:

Th electric force between charges is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them. It means,

F\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}

Initial distance, r₁ = 2 cm

Final distance, r₂ = 0.25 cm

Initial force, F₁ = 1 N    

We need to find the electric force between charges if the new separation of 0.25 cm. So,

\dfrac{F_1}{F_2}=(\dfrac{r_2}{r_1})^2\\\\F_2=\dfrac{F_1r_1^2}{r_2^2}\\\\F_2=\dfrac{1\times 2^2}{(0.25)^2}\\\\F_2=64\ N

So, the new force is 64 N if the separation between charges is 64 N.
