Compare a cup of hot coffee with the Pacific Ocean. Which statement about thermal energy and temperature is correct?

1 answer:

7 0

The answer is D

The body of water contains more molecules; more molecules, more kinetic energy, which creates thermal energy.

The molecules are moving faster is the coffee, so the temperature is higher.

Who did not have experimental evidence to support his theory of the atom? Dalton Thomson Rutherford Democritus

Aloiza [94]

Democritus was the one who did not have experimental evidence to support his theory of the atom.

Answer: Option 4

<u>Explanation: </u>

The discovery of atoms were first stated by Democritus but due to the absence of any experimental proof, his statement was not noted as significant at that time.

After this, Dalton made the specific assumptions formulating some postulates for the atomic theory with proof. Then the cathode rays tube experiments performed by Thomson lead to the formation of plum pudding models of atom.

This is followed by Rutherford’s gold foil experiment discovering the presence of nucleus inside the atoms. So, Democritus first stated but due to absence of experimental evidences, his theory of atoms were not supported at that time.

Charge is distributed uniformly on the surface of a large flat plate. the electric field 2 cm from the plate is 30 n/c. the elec

AysviL [449]

The electric field produced by a large flat plate with uniform charge density on its surface can be found by using Gauss law, and it is equal to
$E= \frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}$
where
$\sigma$ is the charge density
$\epsilon_0$ is the vacuum permittivity

We see that the intensity of the electric field does not depend on the distance from the plate. Therefore, the strenght of the electric field at 4 cm from the plate is equal to the strength of the electric field at 2 cm from the plate:
$E=30 N/C$

when a constant force acts upon an object the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. when a certain constant

solong [7]

Explanation:

When a constant force acts upon an object the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass.

$a\propto \dfrac{1}{m}$

$\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}$

If m₁ = 21 kg, a₁ = 3 m/s², m₂ = 9 kg

We need to find a₂

So,

$a_2=\dfrac{m_1a_1}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{21\times 3}{9}\\\\a_2=7\ m/s^2$

So, if mass is 9 kg, its acceleration is 7 m/s².
