Answer:

The plum pudding model of the atom states that had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged "soup." 

Explanation:

Thomson's plum pudding model of the atom had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged "soup." Rutherford's gold foil experiment showed that the atom is mostly empty space with a tiny, dense, positively-charged nucleus. Based on these results, Rutherford proposed the nuclear model of the atom.

a 5-kg fish swimming at 1 m/s swallows an absent minded 1-kg fish at rest. What is the speed of the large fish immediately afyer

storchak [24]

Answer:

In first case speed of fish will be $\frac{5}{6}$ m/s.

In the second case the speed of fish $\frac{1}{6}$ m/s

Explanation:

Given data :-

Mass of bigger fish ( m₁ ) = 5 kg.

Mass of small fish ( m₂ ) = 1 kg.

Speed of large fish ( v₁ ) = 1 m/s

Mass of bigger fish after eating smaller one = 5 + 1 = 6 kg.

Case - 1

Momentum of bigger fish before eating the smaller fish = m₁* v₁ = 5 * 1 = 5 kg.m/s

Momentum of bigger fish after eating the larger fish = ( m₁ + m₂)*v

v = speed of bigger fish immediately after lunch.

Using the conservation of momentum.

m₁* v₁ = ( m₁ + m₂)*v

5 = 6 * v

v = $\frac{5}{6}$ m/s.

Case -2

Speed of small fish = 4 m/s

Momentum of bigger fish before lunch = 5 kg.m/s

Momentum of smaller fish before lunch = 4*1 = 4 kg.m/s

Net momentum before lunch = 5 - 4 = 1 kg.m/s

Momentum of bigger fish after eating the larger fish = 6 * V

Using the conservation of momentum.

1 = 6 * V

V = $\frac{1}{6}$ m/s.

Coherent light with wavelength = 600 nm falls on two very narrow closely spaced slits and the interference pattern is observed o

Mrac [35]

Answer:

The distance between the two slits is 1.2mm.

Explanation:

The physicist Thomas Young establishes, through its double slit experiment, a relationship between the interference (constructive or destructive) of a wave, the separation between the slits, the distance between the two slits to the screen and the wavelength.

$\Lambda x = L\frac{\lambda}{d}$ (1)

Where $\Lambda x$ is the distance between two adjacent maxima, L is the distance of the screen from the slits, $\lambda$ is the wavelength and d is the separation between the slits.

If light pass through two slits a diffraction pattern in a screen will be gotten, at which each bright region corresponds to a crest, a dark region to a trough, as consequence of constructive interference and destructive interference in different points of its propagation to the screen.

Therefore, d can be isolated from equation 1.

$d = L\frac{\lambda}{\Lambda x}$ (2)

Notice that it is necessary to express L and $\lambda$ in units of millimeters.

$L = 4m \cdot \frac{1000mm}{1m}$ ⇒ $4000mm$

$\lambda = 600nm \cdot \frac{1mm}{1x10^{6}nm}$ ⇒ $0.0006mm$

$d = (4000mm)\frac{0.0006mm}{2mm}$

$d = 1.2mm$

Hence, the distance between the two slits is 1.2mm.

which element is reactive an element whose atoms atoms have seven valence electrons or a element whose atoms have eight valence

likoan [24]

Elements with 7 valence electrons are extremely reactive, while elements with 8 valence electrons practically don't react at all.

This is caused by the fact that all molecules want to have 8 valence electrons; that's just the scientific fact. So, if an element already has 8 valence electrons, it doesn't need to react with anything. If the element only has 7 valence electrons, however, it really wants to react with something with 1 valence electron to get to that special number 8.

Mutations can be transmitted to the next generation only if they are present in

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The germline (the gametes)

Explanation:

Mutations are permanent changes in the DNA sequence. They can occur randomly, from mistakes during DNA replication, or as the result of external factors like UV radiation.

For these mutations to be passed on to the next generation, they must be present in the DNA of the gametes(i.e. the egg and sperm cells). This is because this is the DNA that goes on to make the offspring in the next generation following fertilisation.

If mutations are present in somatic cells (i.e. cells other than the gametes), they are not passed on to the next generation. For example, if someone gets mutations in their skin cells as a result of exposure to UV rays, this will not be passed on to their children.

Why does a straw look broken viewed in a glass of water?

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

This is due to refraction of light

Explanation:

When a straw is placed in a glass it appears to be broken as a result of refraction of light on the air-water interface.

Since, the refractive index of water is more than that of glass.

Also, water is denser than air, which means light travels slower in water than in air.

Most importantly, When light travels from rarer to denser medium it bents towards the normal and deviates from its original path which explains the broken view of straw in a glass of water.
