Explanation:

According to International Astronomical union a planet must satisfy the following three conditions-

1. It should orbit around sun(parent star).

2. It should have enough gravity to maintain almost spherical shape.

3. It should have cleared its neighbourhood around its orbit.

Pluto does not fulfill the third criteria and hence it has been re-categorized as dwarf planet.

The answers would be:

1. Electron cloud

2. Electrons, Electrons, Electrons

3. Nucleus, nucleus

4. Protons, protons

5. Neutrons, Neutrons

6. Direct, direct.

7. Inverse, inverse

8. No relationship, no relationship

9. Experimental control

10. Controlled variables

Here is more about the question:

An atom has 3 subatomic particles:

Proton: positively charged particles

Electron: Negatively charged particles

Neutrons: Neutrally charged particles

The nucleus is made up of the protons and neutrons, while the electrons are found outside, within the electron cloud.

Electrons are very important in bonding. It is also heavily involved in electricity. Electricity is the flow of electrons through a conductor.

Relationships in a graph:

For direct relationships, you just need to remember, when one goes up, the other one goes up too.

Inverse relationships on the other hand, when one goes up the other goes down.

If no change occurs, then we can say that there is no relationship.

Problem: An ice hockey player hits a puck of mass 0.15 kilograms with a force of 100 newtons in the horizontal direction. What i
valina [46]
The acceleration produced in a body is always in the direction of the resultant force acting on the body. Therefore, we may determine the horizontal acceleration using the horizontal force applied. To do this, we may apply the mathematical form of Newton's second law:

Force = mass * acceleration
acceleration = force / mass

Substituting the values,
a = 100 / 0.15
a = 666.7 m/s²

The acceleration of the hockey puck is 670 m/s²
