QveST [7]2 years ago

Answer:

mind-bogglingly hot

Explanation:

If a sunspot were pointed right at Mercury in this way, the planet would become even more mind-bogglingly hot. Sunspots look dark in our visual spectrum, so we might suspect that they are colder (or at least less hot) than the rest of the Sun; but in fact, they are hotter.

What is the best use of an atomic model to explain the charge of the particles in thomson's beams
hoa [83]

The best use of an atomic model to explain the charge of the particles in Thomson's beams is:

<u>An atom's smaller negative particles are at a distance from the central positive particles, so the negative particles are easier to remove.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In Thomson's model, an atom comprises of electrons that are surrounded by a group of positive particles to equal the electron's negative particles, like negatively charged “plums” that are surrounded by positively charged “pudding”.

Atoms are composed of a nucleus that consists of protons and neutrons . Electron was discovered by Sir J.J.Thomson. Atoms are neutral overall, therefore in Thomson’s ‘plum pudding model’:

  • atoms are spheres of positive charge
  • electrons are dotted around inside

Thomson's conclusions made him to propose the Rutherford model of the atom where the atom had a concentrated nucleus of positive charge and also large mass.

a sound pulse emitted underwater reflects off a school of fish and is detected at the same place 0.01 s later. how far away are
andrew-mc [135]
In fresh water sound waves travel at 1497m/s at 25 degrees, I'll assume that's the characteristics of the water.

If it's 0.01s then you need to divide the speed by 100 to get the, 14.97, however it gets there and back in that time so you need to halve it.
