The given statement "protons and neutrons both have positive charge, and electrons have negative charge" is false.

Answer: Option 2

<u>Explanation:</u>

The atoms of all elements are made up of tiny particles that were unknown to the world for many years. With the efforts of wise brains such as J.J. Thomson, Rutherford and Chadwick, it has been concluded that an atom is not the smallest particle and is comprised of three tiny particles’ combination- Protons, Electrons and Neutrons.

The protons have a natural positive charge that attracts the equal but opposite charge towards them and they are electrons. Electrons have a negative charge and revolve around the nucleus of an atom in their constituent orbits.

Neutrons don’t have any charge on them and hence, remain at rest inside the nucleus of atoms. They are actually the flipped iso-spins of protons. The purpose of neutrons in the nucleus is to create a balance between two or more protons so that they can co-exist in the nucleus and it may not scatter.

Multiply the following numbers, using scientific notation and the correct amount of significant digits. 1.003 m⋅3.09 = _____ 3.0

lozanna [386]

Answer

correct answer is 3.10

Explanation:

in this question we have to multiply two numbers 1.003 and 3.09.

1.003 has 4 significant digits and 3.09 has 3 significant digits so answer must have 3 significant digits.

$1.003\times 3.09=3.09927$

$1.003\times 3.09=3.10$

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

D. Solution

Explanation:

Sugar dissolved in water is an example of solution.

A solution is a homogenous mixture of solutes and solvents.

In a solution the solute particles ae distributed uniformly in the solvents. The solute is the substance and it is the sugar here that is dissolved to make a solution.

The solvent is the water in this instance that helps to dissolve the solute.

Define what is energy and work

Mashutka [201]

The work-energy principle states that an increase in the kinetic energy of a rigid body is caused by an equal amount of positive work done on the body by the resultant force acting on that body. Conversely, a decrease in kinetic energy is caused by an equal amount of negative work done by the resultant force.

Two blocks are the same size one block has a higher temperature than the other. Which describes the thermal energy of these bloc

shepuryov [24]

The block that has a higher temperature describes the thermal energy of these blocks. Thermal energy is a measure of internal energy - therefore, the block with the higher temperature has more internal energy than the block with the lower temperature, meaning it's thermal energy is greater.

What is the magnitude of the gravitational force acting on the sun due to the earth?The earth does not exert any gravitational f

Sholpan [36]

I haven't worked on Part-A, and I don't happen to know the magnitude of the gravitational force that the Sun exerts on the Earth.

But whatever it is, it's exactly, precisely, identical, the same, and equal to the magnitude of the gravitational force that the Earth exerts on the Sun.

I think that's the THIRD choice here, but I'm not sure of that either.
