Answer:

The planets themselves are composed of several trillions or quadrillions or more atoms. As far as hard science is concerned, it would be really hard to picture them as electrons. Conclusion: It can be said with a great accuracy that our planets are NOT huge electrons.

Rutherford's experiments showed that the mass of atoms was mostly concentrated in a very small region, with charge equal to the atomic number- the nucleus. He absolutely did not show, nor is it true, that electrons orbit the nucleus as if they were planets. That was a guess people made in trying to figure out how to picture the atom.

PE= weight x height. (remember weight is the force of gravity acting on objects...NOT the same as mass)

PE=3*2*9.8
PE=6*9.8
PE=58.8 J (for joules which is the unit for both Kinetic and potential energy)

6. Geologists in Egypt and Ethiopia are comparing rock samples from rocks

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Both are different.

Explanation:

Both rocks are different from one another because both formed from different types of rocks. Rock A was formed from small pieces of rock while on the other hand, Rock B was formed from liquid rock so they both have different sources of rocks from which they were formed. Forming at the same time does not show that they are similar to each other, it is their source which decides that they are similar or different.
