You have two identical beakers A and B. Each beaker is filled with water to the same height. Beaker B has a rock floating at the

surface (like a pumice stone). Which beaker, with all its contents, weighs more. Or are they equal?

Answer:

a) if we assume that the water does not spill, Beaker B weighs more than beaker S, or which in this case Beaker A weighs more

b) If it is spilled in water the weight of the two beakers is the same

Explanation:

The beaker weight is

 beaker A

          W_total = W_ empty + W_water

Beaker B

            W_total = W_ empty + W_water + W_roca

a) if we assume that the water does not spill, Beaker B weighs more than beaker S, or which in this case Beaker A weighs more

b) If it is spilled in water, the weight of the two beakers is the same because the amount of liquid spilled and equal to the weight of the stone, therefore the two beakers weigh the same

You stand on a bridge above a river and drop a rock into the water below from a height of 25 m. (Assume no air resistance)
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

PART a)

here when stone is dropped there is only gravitational force on it

so its acceleration is only due to gravity

so we will have

a = g = 9.8 m/s^2

Part b)

Now from kinematics equation we will have

y = v_i t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

now we have

y = 25 m

so from above equation

25 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}(9.8 )t^2

t = 2.26 s

Part c)

If we throw the rock horizontally by speed 20 m/s

then in this case there is no change in the vertical velocity

so it will take same time to reach the water surface as it took initially

So t = 2.26 s

Part D)

Initial speed = 20 m/s

angle of projection = 65 degree

now we have

v_x = vcos\theta

v_x  = 20 cos65 = 8.45 m/s

v_y = vsin\theta

v_y = 20 sin65 = 18.13 m/s

PART E)

when stone will reach to maximum height then we know that its final speed in y direction becomes zero

so here we can use kinematics in Y direction

v_f - v_y = at

0 - 18.13 = (-9.8) t

t = 1.85 s

so it will take 1.85 s to reach the top

The model of the atom has changed as scientists have gathered new evidence. Four models of the atom are shown below, but one imp
nexus9112 [7]

Answer: Dalton’s model

Explanation:

In the attached image we can see four atomic models labeled with four letters:

W represents the current and accepeted atomic model: a nucleus with an electron cloud, where the orbit and position of the electrons around the nucleus is defined by specific regions (associated with specific energy levels) where there is a greater probability of finding the electron at any given moment. It is important to note this model was improved by the works in quantum physics done by Louis de Broglie and Erwin Schrodinger.

X represents Rutherford's model (This model was proposed after Thomson's model). Ernest Rutherford conducted a series of experiments in order to corroborate Thomson's atomic model. However the results of the experiment led him to find out there is a concentration of charge in the atom's core (which was later called nucleus) surrounded by electrons.  This lead to a new atomic model, in which the atom has a positive charged nucleus surrounded by negative charged particles that move similar to the orbit of the planet around the Sun.

Y represents Thomson's model, also called  the <em>plum pudding</em> model. This scientific found out that atoms contain small subatomic particles with a negative charge (later called electrons). However, taking into consideration that at that time there was still no evidence of the atom nucleus, Thomson thought the electrons were immersed in the atom of positive charge that counteracted the negative charge of the electrons. Just like the raisins embedded in a pudding or bread.

Z represents Bohr's model. This model was proposed by the danish physicist Niels Bohr after Rutherford's model. In fact, this model was Rutherford's model with the following addition: electrons orbit the nucleus (like planets around the sun) in specific orbits at different energy levels around the nucleus.

So, the only missing model is <u>Dalton's model</u>, which was the first atomic model:  the atom represented as a solid, indestructible and indivisible mass. An idea that was already accepted by that time since the ancient Greeks.
