Vilka [71]3 years ago
7 0
<span>Robert Millikan,in 1909,performed and experiment known as oil drop experiment.
During his experiment he made certain calculations and conclusions.One of them was that he determined the size of charge on an electron.</span><span>He also proved that the charge was smallest 'unit' , or simply the charge is 'quantized'.
He was also awarded with Noble prize.
So,from the above explanation,i have concluded that the best option which refers to the question asked is :
</span><span>B. It determined the actual mass of the electron.</span>

A student sits at rest on a piano stool that can rotate without friction. The moment of inertia of the student-stool system is 4
bija089 [108]

Answer:

   w = 0.55 rad / s

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the conservation of angular momentum, let's write the moment in two moments

Initial

    L₀ = r p + 0

    L₀ = r mv

The first term is the angular momentum of the mass

Final

      Lf = (I + m r²) w

Where I is the moment of inertia of the stool and the other term is the moment of inertia of the mass

      L₀ = Lf

      r mv = (I + m r²) w

      w = m r v / (I + m r²)

Let's calculate

      w = 2.0 0.45 3.0 / (4.5 + 2.0 0.45²)

      w = 2.7 / 4.9

     w = 0.55 rad / s

The mass of a cm3(cube) stone is 180.
ss7ja [257]

 Density = (mass) / (volume), no matter how large or small the sample is.

We can't calculate the density, because you left out the number for the volume.
Also, you didn't tell us the unit for the mass of 180.

a).  If the mass is 180 grams, then the density is 

                               (180 gm) / (volume) .

b).  No matter how many pieces you crush it into, and
no matter how large or small a piece is, its density is
the same.  (I just wish we knew what the density really is.)

c).  A piece may have 80 grams of mass.  It doesn't "weigh" 80 grams.

Since the density of the whole rock is  (180 gm) / (volume),
the density of any piece of it is  (180 gm) / (volume).

Multiply each side by (volume):   (Density) x (volume) = 180 gm

Divide each side by (density):        Volume = (180 gm) / (density)

We can't calculate the volume of an 80-gm piece, because
we don't know the density.  (That's because you left the volume
out of the question.)
