What caused rutherford to propose a revised model of the atom

Physics

Wewaii [24]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Rutherford proposed a revised model for the atom, called the planetary model. The previous model of the atom was Thomson's Plum Pudding Model which consisted of freely moving positive and negative charges inside the atom.

Rutherford proposed his model after an experiment he conducted called the Gold Foil Experiment. This experiment consisted of a thin gold sheet into which alpha particles were shot upon and they were detected by a sensor. The image attached will give a better explanation of this. In this experiment he shot a beam of alpha particles(helium nucleus) at a thin sheet of gold. Rutherford hypothesised that there should be minimum deflection of the positively charged alpha particles occuring due to the repulsion of the alpha particle with the positive charges in the thin gold sheet. This was not the case.

However what he found was that most of alpha particles went straight through the thin sheet of gold but some were reflected back to him. This surprised him. Hence he proposed that most of the atom must be empty space as most of the alpha particles went straight through the sheet and there must be a heavy nucleus inside the atom causing the alpha particles to bounce back.

A certain light truck can go around a flat curve having a radius of 150 m with a maximum speed of 35.5 m/s. a) What is the coeff
postnew [5]

Answer:

The coefficient of friction present between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is <u>0.833</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of the curve (R) = 150 m

Maximum speed of truck (v) = 35.5 m/s

Let the coefficient of friction between the roadway and the wheels of the truck be "μ".

As the truck is moving around a circular curve. So, the force acting on it is centripetal force which acts in the radial inward direction towards the center of the circular curve.

The centripetal force acting on the truck is given as:

F_c=\frac{mv^2}{R}

Now, the friction between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is responsible for providing the necessary centripetal force. So, frictional force is equal to the centripetal force necessary for circular motion.

Frictional force is given as:

f=\mu N

Where, 'N' is the normal force. Since there is no vertical motion, the normal force is equal to weight of truck. So,

N=mg

Therefore, frictional force, f=\mu mg

Now, frictional force = centripetal force

f=F_c\\\\\mu mg=\frac{mv^2}{R}\\\\\mu = \frac{v^2}{Rg}

Plug in the given values and solve for 'μ'. This gives,

\mu=\frac{(35\ m/s)^2}{(150\ m)(9.8\ m/s^2)}\\\\\mu=\frac{1225\ m^2/s^2}{1470\ m^2/s^2}\\\\\mu=0.833

Therefore, the coefficient of friction present between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is 0.833
