Explanation:

When Rutherford did the Gold Foil experiment, he expected that most of his alpha particles will go straight through, without any major deflections. He noticed that, during the experiment, most alpha particles went straight through, but was surprised to see that some got deflected by major angles. So he came up with a theory which states that every atom has got a nucleus, and also stated that most parts of the atom are empty, as most of the particles went through.

Bright and dark fringes are seen on a screen when light from a single source reaches two narrow slits a short distance apart. Th
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the thickness of the film is t and the refractive index of the material of film is n.

When light travels through a sheet of thickness t, the optical path traveled is nt.

When the path of one of slit is covered by a sheet of thickness t, the optical path becomes

x = ( n - 1) t

As the one fringe is shift, so the optical path changed by one wavelength.

i.e., x = λ

So, λ = ( n - 1) t

t=\frac{\lambda }{n-1}

Answer:

1. F and G.

2. D

3. A and E.

4. B

5. C

Explanation:

1. Acceleration: An increase in a body's velocity. An increase in a body's speed.

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

2. Kinematics: a study of moving bodies i.e physical objects in motion.

Motion can be defined as a change in the location (position) of a physical object or body with respect to a reference point.

This ultimately implies that, motion would occur as a result of a change in location (position) of an object with respect to a reference point or frame of reference i.e where it was standing before the effect of an external force.

3. Inertia: A tendency of a body to keep moving. A state of balance of forces on a body and the body remains either at rest or in uniform motion.

Inertia can be defined as the tendency of an object or a body to continue in its state of motion or remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

In physics, Sir Isaac Newton's First Law of Motion is known as Law of Inertia and it states that, an object or a physical body in motion will continue in its state of motion at continuous velocity (the same speed and direction) or, if at rest, will remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

4. Velocity: Fastness and direction of a body.

Velocity can be defined as the rate of change in displacement (distance) with time. Velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

5. Reaction: an opposite force.

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Action-reaction force pairs make it possible for fishes to swim, birds to fly, cars to move, etc.
