Answer:

Net external force acting on the rock when it is at the top of its trajectory is force due to gravity (mg).

Explanation:

The forces acting on a rock thrown up are force due to gravity and air resistance. Air resistance is directly proportional to velocity of rock, when velocity is zero air resistance is zero. When it is at the top of its trajectory its velocity is zero. So air resistance is also zero. Hence only gravitational force acts on the rock.

Net external force acting on the rock when it is at the top of its trajectory is force due to gravity (mg).

Korolek [52]

Answer:

0.6

Explanation:

Angular acceleration is equal to Net Torque divided by rotational inertia, which is the rotational equivalent to Newton’s 2nd Law.  Therefore, angular acceleration is equal to 3.6/6 which is 0.6. Hope this helped!

Bumek [7]

Answer:

C. Positively charged

Explanation:

The plum pudding model of the atom proposes by J. J. Thomson consisted of electrons which lay embedded as the raisins within a dough or soup that was positively charged. The electron was discovered by J. J. Thomson in 1897 through cathode ray tube experiments.

Based on the plum pudding model, if all the negatively charge electrons contained in an atom are removed, the material remaining will be the <em>positively charged</em> soup

A hydrogen atom has a diameter of about 10 nm. Express this diameter in meters. Express this diameter in millimeters. Express th
Fynjy0 [20]
So, the first question is: how many meters are 10 nm?

1nm =<span>0.000000001 m.

So 10 nanometers are </span><span>0.00000001 m!

Now, how many milimeter are those?
let's start with meters, 1 meter are 1000 milimeters.
so </span>
0.00000001*1000=0.<span><span>00001</span> m!

now, micrometers .1 micrometer are 1000 nanometers.
so 10 nanometers are 0.01 micrometers! (1 nanometer is 0.001 micrometers)
