The Geiger–Marsden tests (also known as the Rutherford gold foil experiment) were a set of groundbreaking experiments that demonstrated that every atom has a nucleus that contains all of its positive charge and most of its mass.

In 1911, Rutherford and coworkers Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden initiated a series of groundbreaking experiments that would completely change the accepted model of the atom. They bombarded very thin sheets of gold foil with fast moving alpha particles.

Answer:

tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 22.78 nm

Explanation:

Bohr's model for the hydrogen atom has been used by other atoms with a single electric charge by changing the number of charges by the charge of the new atom (atomic number)

$E_{n}$ = k e² / 2a₀ (1 /n²)

ao = h'² / k m e² h' = h/2πi

For another atom with a single electron in the last layer

a₀ ’= h’² / k m (Ze)²

a₀ ’= a₀ / Z²

Therefore, when replacing in the equation

$E_{n}$ = - Z² Eo/n²

E₀ = 13,606 eV

The transition occurs when the electron stops from one level to another

$E_{n}$ - $E_{m}$ = Z² E₀ (1 / n² - 1 / m²) = Z² ΔE

Let's relate this expression to the wavelength

c = λ f

E = h f

E = h c /λ

h c / λ = Z² ΔE

λ = 1 / Z² (hc / ΔE)

λ = 1 / Z² λ_hydrogen

Let's apply this last equation to our case

Lithium Z = 3

$E_{n}$ = - 9 Eo / n²

40.5 10-9 = 1/9 λ_hydrogen

Beryllium Z = 4

λ = 1/16 λ_hydrogen

Let's write our two equations is and solve

40.5 10-9 = 1/9 λ_hydrogen

tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 1/ 16 λ_hydrogen

40.5 10⁻⁹ = 1/9 (16 $\lambda_{Be}$ )

tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 40.5 9/16

tex]\lambda_{Be}[/tex] = 22.78 nm

In your own words, explain how solar heating works

mestny [16]

Answer:

active solar heating systems use solar energy to heat a fluid either liquid or air and then transfer the solar heat directly to the interior space or to a storage system for later use. If the solar system cannot provide adequate space heating, an auxiliary or back-up system provides the additional heat.

hope this helps : )

*FRICTIONAL FORCE* in the opposite direction of the way Bobby is pushing.
Friction is a force which varies but it is always opposing the direction of motion.

*APPLIED FORCE* is the force that Bobby is pushing with.
An applied force is literally the force that is applied to an object.

*WEIGHT FORCE* is also called the force of gravity. It is straight downward.
It is the weight of the object multiplied by the force of gravity. If the TV weighed 100kg, acceleration is always 9.81 m/s^2, so the weight force would be 981 N.

*NORMAL FORCE* is the force which is holding the TV above ground. The ground supplies a force upward against the TV.
Normal force is just the force that prevents the TV from falling through the ground. We don't normally realize it in our everyday life, but the floor must hold everything up because gravity is always "pushing" against it.
