Describe the composition of the nucleus of an atom.

Physics
2 answers:
Nina [5.8K]3 years ago

Explanation:

The nucleus of an atom is made up of protons and neutrons. This was discovered in 1911 by Ernest Rutherford based on the gold foil experiment.

These baryons are further made up of sub-atomic fundamental particles known as quarks joined by the strong interaction.

Nuclei are bound together by the residual strong force (nuclear force). This force or baryon is much weaker between neutrons and protons because it is mostly neutralized within them, in the same way that electromagnetic forces between neutral atoms (such as van der Waals forces that act between two inert gas atoms) are much weaker than the electromagnetic forces that hold the parts of the atoms together internally.

Answer:

Explanation:the atom consists of a tiny nucleus at its center which is surrounded by a moving electrons. The nucleus contains a positively charged proton equal in size with the negatively charged electrons . The nucleus also may contain neutrons which have the same mass with the protons but no charge is neutral.

an electron, a proton and a deuteron move in a magnetic field with same momentum perpendicularly. the ratio of the radii of thei
wel

If an electron, a proton, and a deuteron move in a magnetic field with the same momentum perpendicularly, the ratio of the radii of their circular paths will be:

  • 1: √2 : 1

<h3>How is the ratio of the perpendicular parts obtained?</h3>

To obtain the ratio of the perpendicular parts, one begins bdy noting that the mass of the proton = 1m, the mass of deuteron = 2m, and the mass of the alpha particle  = 4m.

The ratio of the radii of the parts can be obtained by finding the root of the masses and dividing this by the charge. When the coefficients are substituted into the formula, we will have:

r = √m/e : √2m/e : √4m/2e

When resolved, the resulting ratios will be:

1: √2 : 1

What is the ratio of thicknesses of crown glass and water that would contain the same number of wavelengths of light?
Serhud [2]

Answer:

the thickness of the glass divided by thickness of water is going to be 1.333 divided by 1.52, which is 0.877. So, the height of this glass, in order to have the same number of wavelengths as in water, the height of the glass will be 0.877 times the height of the water, and so it will be smaller.

A cylindrical container with a cross-sectional area of 66.2 cm2 holds a fluid of density 856 kg/m3 . At the bottom of the contai
Ugo [173]

Answer:

A. h = 2.15 m

B. Pb' = 122 KPa

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a)  Let us assume the depth be h

As we know that

Pb - Pat = d \times g \times h \\\\ ( 119 - 101) \times 10^3 = 856 \times 9.8 \times h

After solving this,  

h = 2.15 m

Therefore the depth of the fluid is 2.15 m

b)

Given that  

height of the extra fluid is

h' = \frac{2.35 \times 10^{-3}}{ area} \\\\ h' = \frac{2.35 \times 10^{-3}} { 66.2 \times 10^{-4}}

h' = 0.355 m

Now let us assume the pressure at the bottom is Pb'

so, the equation would be

Pb' - Pat = d \times g \times  (h + h')\\\\Pb' = 856 \times 9.8 \times ( 2.15 + 0.355) + 101000

Pb' = 122 KPa

1<br> Verify the identity. Show your work.<br><br> cot θ ∙ sec θ = csc θ
Fittoniya [83]
To verify the identity, we can make use of the basic trigonometric identities:
cot θ = cos θ / sin θ 
sec θ = 1 / cos <span>θ
csc </span>θ = 1 / sin θ<span>

Using these identities:
</span>cot θ ∙ sec θ = (cos θ / sin θ ) (<span> 1 / cos </span><span>θ)
</span>
We can cancel out cos <span>θ, leaving us with
</span>cot θ ∙ sec θ = 1 / sin θ
cot θ ∙ sec θ = = csc <span>θ</span>
