Why did the work of Rutherford and Marsden convince many scientists that the ‘plum pudding’ model of the atom was incorrect?

1 answer:

6 0

Because the alpha particles were passing through the foil with slight to no reflection however some alpha particles were deflected with high angle or reversed direction which is not what was expected as according to thomson the atom is a lump of postively charged mass and there will be no deflection as the charge is distrbuted and the charge of alpha particle is 207 times that of electron

A piston above liquid in a closed container has an area of 1m2. The piston carries a load of 350 kg. What will be the external p

grandymaker [24]

<span>Pressure = force / area</span>

I assume that 350kg is the mass
Therefore,

350 x 9.8 (gravity) = 3430N

3430 / 1 = 3430Pa

A stationary siren creates an 894 Hz

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

12.3 m/s

Explanation:

The Doppler equation describes how sound frequency depends on relative velocities:

fr = fs (c + vr)/(c + vs),

where fr is the frequency heard by the receiver,

fs is the frequency emitted at the source,

c is the speed of sound,

vr is the velocity of the receiver,

and vs is the velocity of the source.

Note: vr is positive if the receiver is moving towards the source, negative if away.

Conversely, vs is positive if the receiver is moving away from the source, and negative if towards.

Given:

fs = 894 Hz

fr = 926 Hz

c = 343 m/s

vs = 0 m/s

Find: vr

926 = 894 (343 + vr) / (343 + 0)

vr = 12.3

The speed of the car is 12.3 m/s.

A well-insulated bucket of negligible heat capacity contains 129 g of ice at 0°C.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The final equilibrium temperature of the system is $T = 12.48^oC$

For the ice it would melt completely the mass that would remain is Zero

Explanation:

In the following question we are provided with

Mass of the ice $M_{i}$ = 129 g = 0.129 kg

Mass of the steam $M_s$ = 19 g = 0.019 kg

Initial temperature is $T_i$ = 0°C

Temperature of steam $T_s$ = 100°C

Following the change of state of water in the question

The energy required by ice to change to water is mathematically given as

$Q_A = M_iL_f$

Where $L_f$ is a constant known as heat of fusion and the value is $334*10^3 J/kg$

$Q_A = 0.129 *334 *10^3 = 43086 J$

The energy been released when the steam changes to water is mathematically given as

$Q_B = M_s * L_v$

Where $L_v$ is a constant known as heat of vaporization and the value is $2256*10^3J/kg$

$Q_B = 0.019 * 2256*10^3 = 42864J$

The energy released when the temperature of water decrease from 100°C to 0°C is

$Q_C = M_s *C_water ($ 100°C)

Where $C_{water}$ is the specific heat of water which has a value $4186J/kg \cdot K$

$Q_C = 0.019 *4186*100 = 7953.4$

Looking at the values we obtained we noticed that ]

$Q_B + Q_C > Q_A$

What this means is that the ice will melt

bearing in mind the conservation of energy

looking the way at which water at different temperature were mixed according to the question

Heat lossed by the vapor = heat gained by ice

$Q_B + M_s *C_{water}(100-T) = Q_A + M_i C_{water} T$

$T = \frac{Q_B+M_s *C_{water}(100^oC)-Q_A}{(M_s *C_{water})+(M_i*C_{water})}$

$T = \frac{42864+7953.4-43086}{(0.019+0.129)(4186)}$

$T = 12.48^oC$

While playing baseball with your friends your hands begin to sting after you ctach several fast balls.

muminat

Answer:

Explanation:

To stop a ball with high momentum in a small-time imparts a high amount of impact on hands. This is the reason for the stinging of hands.

The momentum of the ball is due to the mass and velocity. To prevent stinging in the hand one needs to lower his hands to increase the time of contact. In this way, the momentum transfer to the hands will be lesser.
