Most of the mass is located in the nucleus as suggested by Rutherford's gold foil experiment.

Answer:

in the nucleus

Explanation:

The majority of mass of an atom consists in the nucleus which consists of protons and neutrons. The mass of a proton is 1.6726219 × 10⁻²⁷ kilograms and the mass of neutron is 1.674929 x 10⁻²⁷ kg while the mass of an electron is 9.109390 x 10⁻³¹ kg.

As it can be seen that the masses of both the protons and neutrons are higher than that of an electron the most mass lies in the nucleus.

A football is kicked from the ground with a velocity of 38m/s at an angle of 40 degrees and eventually lands at the same height.
Anastasy [175]

Initially, the velocity vector is \langle 38cos(40^{\circ}),38sin(40^{\circ}) \rangle=\langle 29.110, 24.426 \rangle. At the same height, the x-value of the vector will be the same, and the y-value will be opposite (assuming no air resistance). Assuming perfect reflection off the ground, the velocity vector is the same. After 0.2 seconds at 9.8 seconds, the y-value has decreased by 4.9(0.2)^2, so the velocity is \langle 29.110, 24.426-0.196 \rangle = \langle 29.110, 24.23 \rangle.

Converting back to direction and magnitude, we get \langle r,\theta \rangle=\langle \sqrt{29.11^2+24.23^2},tan^{-1}(\frac{29.11}{24.23}) \rangle = \langle 37.87,50.2^{\circ}\rangle

Energy of fossil fuel is also derived from solar energy why​
zzz [600]

Explanation:

All the energy in oil, gas, and coal originally came from the sun captured through photosynthesis. In the same way that we burn wood to release energy that trees capture from the sun, we burn fossil fuels to release the energy that ancient plants captured from the sun.

How do physicists use measurements to understand the natural world?? Use scientific language to describe your evidence.
34kurt

Answer:

Measurements are used to describe quantitatively real-life situations

Explanation:

Measurement refers to the act of assigning a number (with a unit) to a characteristic of an object or an event.

For example: when we want to measure the size of an object, we can use a rule to measure its length, and we assign a number with a unit for that quantity (for example, 5 cm). In this case, we have done a measurement.

Measurements are used by scientists in order to understand the natural worlds. In fact, without measurements it would be impossible to describe phenomena of the real world quantitatively: it would be only possible to describe them qualitatively, and therefore it would not be possible for instance to derive mathematical laws that describe those phenomena.

A series LRC circuit consists of a 12.0-mH inductor, a 15.0-µF capacitor, a resistor, and a 110-V (rms) ac voltage source. If th
finlep [7]

Answer:

61.85 ohm

Explanation:

L = 12 m H = 12 x 10^-3 H, C = 15 x 10^-6 F, Vrms = 110 V, R = 45 ohm

Let ω0 be the resonant frequency.

\omega _{0}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}

\omega _{0}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{12\times 10^{-3}\times 15\times 10^{-6}}}

ω0 = 2357 rad/s

ω = 2 x 2357 = 4714 rad/s

XL = ω L = 4714 x 12 x 10^-3 = 56.57 ohm

Xc = 1 / ω C = 1 / (4714 x 15 x 10^-6) = 14.14 ohm

Impedance, Z = \sqrt{R^{2}+\left ( XL - Xc \right )^{2}}

Z = \sqrt{45^{2}+\left ( 56.57-14.14 )^{2}} = 61.85 ohm

Thus, the impedance at double the resonant frequency is 61.85 ohm.
