The correct answer to the question is : B) An atom is a solid material.

EXPLANATION:

From Rutherford's alpha ray scattering experiment, we know that most of the spaces in an atom is empty.

It is so because most of the alpha particles in that scattering experiment had gone undeviated without any deflection by the positively charged nucleus.

Hence, atom can not be considered as a compact solid sphere.

The law of reflection is quite useful for mirrors and other flat, shiny surfaces. (This sort of reflection is called specular re
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

Explanation:

Suppose initially the plane was horizontal and light was reflected back at some angle θ from the normal .

Now the reflecting surface is twisted so that is becomes inclined at angle alpha .

The reflected light will be deviated from its original direction by angle

2 x alpha .

Similarly when the reflecting surface is further twisted so that it becomes inclined at angle beta then again the reflected beam will deviated by angle

2 x beta

Hence angle between these two reflected beam

= 2 beta - 2 alpha

= 2 ( β - α )

So, angular separation between the rays reflected from the two surfaces

= 2 ( β - α ) .

Can an object be accelerated while traveling at constant velocity? Why or why not?
AysviL [449]

Answer:

An object's acceleration is the rate its velocity (speed and direction) changes. Therefore, an object can accelerate even if its speed is constant - if its direction changes. If an object's velocity is constant, however, its acceleration will be zero.

Which calculates the intensity of an electric field at a point where a 0.50 C charge experiences a force of 20. N?
tester [92]

Answer: 40\ N/C

Explanation:

Given

Magnitude of charge is q=0.5\ C

Force experienced is F=20\ N

Electric field intensity is the electrostatic force per unit charge

\therefore E=\dfrac{F}{q}\\\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{20}{0.50}\\\\\Rightarrow E=40\ N/C

Thus, the electric field intensity is 40\ N/C

Assuming that the limits of the visible spectrum are approximately 380 and 700 nm, find the angular range of the first-order vis
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

angular range is ( 0.681 rad , 0.35 rad )

Explanation:

given data

wavelength λ = 380 nm = 380 × 10^{-9} m

wavelength λ  = 700 nm =  700 × 10^{-9} m

to find out

angular range of the first-order

solution

we will apply here slit experiment equation that is

d sinθ = m λ    ...........1

here m is 1 for single slit and d is = \frac{1}{900*10^3 m}

so put here value in equation 1 for 380 nm

we get

d sinθ = m λ

\frac{1}{900*10^3} sinθ = 1 × 380 × 10^{-9}

θ = 0.35 rad

and for 700 nm

we get

d sinθ = m λ

\frac{1}{900*10^3} sinθ = 1 × 700 × 10^{-9}

θ = 0.681 rad

so angular range is ( 0.681 rad , 0.35 rad )

What is the mass of a crate if a net force of 12 N gives the crate an acceleration of 0.20 m/s2?
Veseljchak [2.6K]
A :-) for this question , we should apply
F = ma
Given - F = 12 N
a = 0.20 m/s^2
Solution -
F = ma
12 = m x 0.20
m = 12 by 0.20
m = 60 kg

.:. The mass is 60 kg.
