State the success of j j Thompson model theory​
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Thomson's atomic model was successful in explaining the overall neutrality of the atom. However, its propositions were not consistent with the results of later experiments. In 1906, J. J. Thomson was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics for his theories and experiments on electricity conduction by gases.

Summary. J.J. Thomson's experiments with cathode ray tubes showed that all atoms contain tiny negatively charged subatomic particles or electrons. Thomson proposed the plum pudding model of the atom, which had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged "soup."

How can a magnetic field be produced, using a wire, a battery, and and a nail?
Aleks [24]
It is fairly easy to build an electromagnet. All you need to do is wrap some insulated copper wire around an iron core. If you attach a battery to the wire, an electric current will begin to flow and the iron core will become magnetized. When the battery is disconnected, the iron core will lose its magnetism. Follow these steps.
Step 1 - Gather the Materials
One iron nail fifteen centimeters (6 in) long
Three meters (10 ft) of 22 gauge insulated, stranded copper wire
One or more D-cell batteries
Step 2 - Remove some Insulation
Step 3 - Wrap the Wire Around the Nail
Step 4 - Connect the Battery

A spring is stretched from x=0 to x=d, where x=0 is the equilibrium position of the spring. It is then compressed from x=0 to x=
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The same amount of energy is required to either stretch or compress the spring.

Explanation:

The amount of energy required to stretch or compress a spring is equal to the elastic potential energy stored by the spring:

U=\frac{1}{2}k (\Delta x)^2

where

k is the spring constant

\Delta x is the stretch/compression of the spring

In the first case, the spring is stretched from x=0 to x=d, so

\Delta x = d-0=d

and the amount of energy required is

U=\frac{1}{2}k d^2

In the second case, the spring is compressed from x=0 to x=-d, so

\Delta x = -d -0 = -d

and the amount of energy required is

U=\frac{1}{2}k (-d)^2= \frac{1}{2}kd^2

so we see that the amount of energy required is the same.
