On a coordinate plane, vertex A for triangle ABC is located at (6,4). Triangle ABC is dilated by a scale factor of 0.5 with the

center of dilation at the origin. The resulting image is triangle A'B'C'. What are the coordinates of vertex A'? ​

<h2>Answer:</h2>

A'(0.5\times 6,0.5 \times 4)=A'(3,2)

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Dilation is when you stretch something by the same amount in two perpendicular directions. In other words, dilation changes size, not overall shape. If the factor of dilation is greater than one the shape is greater than the original, else if the scale factor is less than one the shape is smaller. In this problem, we must find the coordinates of A'. Since the center of dilation is the origins, we just need to multiply the coordinates of A by 0.5. So:

A'(0.5\times 6,0.5 \times 4)=A'(3,2)

How have the competing explanations' experiments on atoms affected the development of the atomic model?
olga2289 [7]

Answer

Competing explanations' experiments on atoms gave a perfect modal of an atom

Explanation

There is a long story of atom. Different scientist gave different theories related to atomic modal but no one individually gave a perfect modal they perfect each other work and finally we got a perfect modal of atom.

Here is a short story of atom

in 400 B.C.E, Democritus was the first philosopher who gave the concept of atom. He believes that everything is made up of tiny spheres  and these spheres are known as atoms.

in 1803, Dalton said that atoms of an element are similar. For example all atoms of carbon are similar.

in 1904 J. J. Thomson proposed that atom is sphere in which positively charged matter is filled and electrons are randomly scattered in that positively charged matter.

in 1911, Rutherford gave the concept of nucleus he believed that at the center of atoms all positively charged  particles are present and this center is known as nucleus. He said that negatively charge electrons revolves around the nucleus in particular orbit.

In 1913, Niels Bohr gave a new model he believes that atomic model is similar to planetary modal. He believed that the electrons in an atom revolves around  the nucleus in sets of orbits in a similar manner like the planets revolves around the sun.

In 1919, Rutherford gave the concept of proton.  

In 1932, James Chadwick gives the concept of neutron.

In this way different scientist gave different theories related to atoms and finally they all gave a perfect modal of atom.

Suppose you observe two stars and you know they have the same luminosity. If one star is twice as far away as the other, the mor
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

The farther star will appear 4 times fainter than the star that is near to the observer.

Explanation:

Since it is given that the luminosity of the 2 stars is same thus they radiate the same energy per unit time

Consider a spherical wave front of energy 'E' that leaves both the stars (Both radiate 'E' as they have same luminosity)

This Energy is spread over the whole surface area of sphere Thus when the wave front is at a distance 'r' the energy per unit surface area is given by

e_{1}=\frac{E}{4\pi r^{2}}

For the star that is twice away from the earth the distance is '2r' thus we will receive an energy given by

e_{2}=\frac{E}{4\pi (2r)^{2}}=\frac{E}{8\pi r^{2}}=\frac{e_{1}}{4}

Hence we sense it as 4 times fainter than the nearer star.

Which statement is true about effective nuclear charge?a. Effective nuclear charge decreases as we move to the right across a ro
MissTica

Answer:

Option b. Effective nuclear charge increases as we move to the right across a row in the periodic table

Explanation:

The <em>effective nuclear charge </em>is a measure of how strong the protons in the nucleus of an atom attract the outermost electrons of such atom.

The <em>effective nuclear charge</em> is the net positive charge experienced by valence electrons and is calculated (as an approximation) by the equation: Zeff = Z – S, where Z is the atomic number and S is the number of shielding electrons.

The shielding electrons are those electrons in between the interesting electrons and the nucleus of the atom.

Since the shielding electrons are closer to the nucleus, they repel the outermost electrons and so cancel some of the attraction exerted by the positive charge of the nucleus, meaning that the outermost electrons feel less the efect of attraction of the protons. That is why in the equation of Zeff, the shielding electrons (S) subtract the total from the atomic number Z.

The <em>effective nuclear charge</em>, then, is responsible for some properties and trends in the periodic table. Here, you can see how this explains the trend of the atomic radius (size of the atom) accross a row in the periodic table.

  • As the<em> effective nuclear charge</em> is larger, in a same row of the periodic table, the shielding effect is lower, the outermost electrons are more strongly attracted by the nucleus, and the size of the atoms decrease. That is why as we move to the right in the periodic table, the size of the atoms decrease.

g As observed on earth, a certain type of bacteria is known to double in number every 24 hours. Two cultures of these bacteria a
tangare [24]

Answer:

86.4 hrs

Explanation:

The amount of bacteria is initially 1

It doubles every 24 hrs.

After first 24 hrs, the amount = 2

After next 24 hrs = 4

After next 24 hrs = 8

After next 24 hrs = 16

After next 24 hrs = 32

After next 24 hrs = 64

After next 24 hrs = 128

After next 24 hrs = 256

Total time taken to reach 256 = 24 x 8 = 192 hrs

For the bacteria culture on the rocket that travels at a speed of 0.893c relative to the earth, this time is contracted by the relationship

t = t'(1 - ¥^2)^0.5

Where t is the contracted time =?

t' is the time on earth

¥ = v/c

Where v is the speed of the rocket

c is the speed of light

since v = 0.893c

¥ = 0.893

Substituting, we have

t = 192 x (1 - 0.893^2)^0.5

t = 192 x 0.2025^0.5

t = 192 x 0.45 = 86.4 hrs
