Compare and contrast rutherford's "planetary model" of the atom with our current understanding of an atom's internal structure.

1 answer:

5 0

<span>Rutherford felt that the atom had an internal structure much like our solar system, with a nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons. Today, we know that the electrons inhabit specific shells and sub-shells, and there is an order to which these electrons are located.</span>

As a woman walks, her entire weight is momentarily placed on one heel of her high-heeled shoes. Calculate the pressure exerted o

astraxan [27]

Answer:

3.6 x 10⁶ Pa

Explanation:

A = Area of the heel = 1.50 cm² = 1.50 x 10⁻⁴ m²

m = mass of the woman = 55.0 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Force of gravity on the heel is given as

F = mg

Inserting the values

F = (55) (9.8)

F = 539 N

Pressure exerted on the floor is given as

$P = \frac{F}{A}$

$P = \frac{539}{1.5\times 10^{-4}}$

P = 3.6 x 10⁶ Pa

Consider the speed of light in another universe to be only 100 m/s. Two cars are traveling along a highway in opposite direction

olganol [36]

Answer:

-62.45m/s and +62.45m/s

Explanation:

The formula for relativistic speed

This is the speed of A with respect to B

$V_{AB}=\frac{V_{A}-V_{B}}{1-\frac{V_{A}V_{B}}{C^2} }$

where

$V_{A}$ will be the velocity of person 1: 39m/s

$V_{B}$ will be the velocity of person 2: -31m/s (negative because is travelling in opposite direction)

and $C$ the velocity of light: 100m/s

The velocity of person 1 measured by person 2 is:

$V_{AB}=\frac{39m/s-(-31m/s)}{1-\frac{(39m/s)(-31m/s)}{(100m/s)^2}}=62.45m/s$

The velocity of person 2 measured by person 1 is:

$V_{BA}=\frac{V_{B}-V_{A}}{1-\frac{V_{B}V_{A}}{C^2} }$

$V_{BA}=\frac{-31m/s-39m/s}{1-\frac{(-31m/s)(39m/s)}{(100)^2} }=-62.45m/s$

Which of the following are important biotic factors that can affect the structure and organization of biological communities?

umka21 [38]

Answer:

c. predation, competition, parasitism

Explanation:

The important and only biotic factors from the given choices that can affect the structure and organization of biological communities are predation, competition and parasitism.

These factors ensures that there are interaction between organisms of the same and different species and only occur in life.

Biotic factors are the living component of the ecosystem that dictates what happens therein.

Predation is an interaction between two organisms in which the predator, bigger organism feeds on the prey, smaller organism.
Competition occurs where two organism of the same or different species struggles for limited resources in the ecosystem.
Parasitism is an interaction where one organism feeds on the another and it causes harm to it. The organism feeding on another is called the parasite. And the one it is dependent on is the host.

All of these are biotic factors.
