What caused rutherford to propose a revised model of the atom

Physics
1 answer:
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.

When a pendulum is at the position all the way to the left when it is swinging (at the top of the arc), what is true of the kine
JulsSmile [24]
Choice - B is the correct one.

At the top of the arc, at one end of the swing:
-- it's not going to get any higher, so the potential energy is maximum
-- it stops moving for an instant, so the kinetic energy is zero

At the bottom of the arc, in the center of the swing:
-- it's not going to get any lower, so the potential energy is minimum
-- it's not going to move any faster, so the kinetic energy is maximum

A top-fuel dragster starts from rest and has a constant acceleration of 42.0 m/s2. What are (a) the final velocity of the dragst
disa [49]

Answer:

a)  Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 75.6 m/s

b) Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 151.2 m/s

c) The displacement of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 68.04 m

d) The displacement of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 272.16 m

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion v = u + at

  Initial velocity, u =  0 m/s

 Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

 Time = 1.8 s    

Substituting

  v = u + at

  v  = 0 + 42 x 1.8 = 75.6 m/s

Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 75.6 m/s

b) We have equation of motion v = u + at

  Initial velocity, u =  0 m/s

 Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

 Time = 3.6 s    

Substituting

  v = u + at

  v  = 0 + 42 x 3.6 = 75.6 m/s

Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 151.2 m/s

c) We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

  Initial velocity, u =  0 m/s

 Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

 Time = 1.8 s    

Substituting

   s= ut + 0.5 at²

    s = 0 x 1.8 + 0.5 x 42 x 1.8²

    s = 68.04 m

The displacement of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 68.04 m

d) We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

  Initial velocity, u =  0 m/s

 Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

 Time = 3.6 s    

Substituting

   s= ut + 0.5 at²

    s = 0 x 3.6 + 0.5 x 42 x 3.6²

    s = 272.16 m

The displacement of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 272.16 m

A car with a velocity of 22 m/s is accelerated at a rate of 1.6m/s2 for 6.8s. determine the final velocity
Ivahew [28]

A car with a velocity of 22 m/s is accelerated at a rate of 1.6 m/s^2 for 6.8s has the final velocity t be 32.88 m/s.

The acceleration means the amount of velocity changing per unit time.

The given data:

initial velocity, u = 22 m/s

time, t = 6.8 s

acceleration, a = 1.6 m/s^2

We will be using the equation of motion:

v = u + at

\therefore v=22+1.(6.8)

\Rightarrow v=22+10.88

\Rightarrow v=32.88 \ m/s

The final velocity become 32.88 m/s.
