Answer:
1. The nucleus is about 1/2 the size of the atom
Explanation:
Alpha particles are positive charge particles and they are bounced back by the nucleus because nucleus is also same size
Now in present experiment Rutherford found that very few alpha particles are bounced back along same path which shows that very small region inside the nucleus is having positive charge and rest part of the atom is empty.
Now if we found that half of the alpha particles are bounced back then it shows that size of the nucleus is very large now as compare to previous one because only nucleus can bounce back the alpha particles
so correct answer will be
1. The nucleus is about 1/2 the size of the atom
Answer:
The unbalanced force that caused the ball to stop was friction
Explanation:
As Newton's second law states, the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force applied on the object:

therefore, in order to move at constant speed, an object should have a net force of zero (balanced forces) acting on it.
In this case, the ball slows down and eventually comes to a stop: it means that the ball is decelerating, so there are unbalanced forces (net force different from zero) acting on it. The unbalanced force acting on the ball is the friction: friction is a force against the motion of the object, which is due to the contact between the surface of the ball and the surface of the street, and this force is responsible for slowing down the ball.
