What scientist shot alpha particles into gold

Physics

I am Lyosha [343]3 years ago

The scientist that shot alpha particles into gold was Earnest Rutherford. He discovered about electrons. Then, later, he tried to prove that atoms had neutrons. This was done with his gold foil experiment. When the atoms were shot and hit the nucleus, they bounced back... that is how he found out that the atoms had a nucleus, also where our nuclear structure of an atom comes from...

Hope this helps;)

The Geiger–Marsden experiment(s) (also called the Rutherford gold foil experiment) were a landmark series of experiments by which scientists discovered that every atom contains a nucleus where its positive charge and most of its mass are concentrated

If a 4kg Bird is pushed by the window with a force of 60 N how fast is the bird accelerate?
LiRa [457]
  • Force=60N
  • Mass=4kg

\\ \ast\sf\hookrightarrow Force=Mass\times Acceleration

\\ \ast\sf\hookrightarrow Acceleration=\dfrac{Force}{Mass}

\\ \ast\sf\hookrightarrow Acceleration=\dfrac{60}{4}

\\ \ast\sf\hookrightarrow Acceleration=15m/s^2

A rubber ball moving at a speed of 5 m/s hit a flat wall and returned to the thrower at 5 m/s. Which statement
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

d. Its magnitude and its direction both remained the same.

Explanation:

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum = mass * velocity

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total linear momentum of any closed system would always remain constant with respect to time.

This ultimately implies that, the law of conservation of momentum states that if objects exert forces only on each other, their total momentum is conserved.

In this scenario, a rubber ball moving at a speed of 5 m/s hit a flat wall and returned to the thrower at 5 m/s. Thus, the statement which correctly describes the momentum of the rubber ball is that its magnitude and its direction both remained the same because its velocity didn't change while returning to the thrower.

Suppose a skydiver (mass = 80kg) is falling toward the Earth. Calculate the skydiver’s gravitational potential energy at a point
Vlad [161]
Ep is gravitational potential energy
m is mass (kg)
g is gravitational field strength (N/kg)
h is height (m)

Ep= mgh
= 80kg*9.8N/kg*100m
= 78 400 J
