Answer:

Rutherford

Explanation:

Basic principles of the Rutherford atomic model.

1. Positively charged particles are in a very small volume compared to the size of the atom.

2. Most of the mass of the atom is in that small central volume. Rutherford did not call it "core" in his initial papal but he did it from 1912.

3. Electrons with negative electrical charge revolve around the nucleus.

4. The electrons rotate at high speeds around the nucleus and in circular paths that it called orbits.

5. Both negatively charged electrons and the positively charged nucleus are held together by an electrostatic attraction force.

A particular material has an index of refraction of 1.25. What percent of the speed of light in a vacuum is the speed of light i
beks73 [17]

Answer:

80% (Eighty percent)

Explanation:

The material has a refractive index (n) of 1.25

Speed of light in a vacuum (c) is 2.99792458 x 10⁸  m/s

We can find the speed of light in the material (v) using the relationship

n = c/v, similarly

v = c/n

therefore v = 2.99792458 x 10⁸  m/s ÷ (1.25) = 239 833 966 m/s

v = 239 833 966 m/s

Therefore the percentage of the speed of light in a vacuum that is the speed of light in the material can be calculated as

(v/c) × 100 = (1/n) × 100 = (1/1.25) × 100 = 0.8 × 100 = 80%

Therefore speed of light in the material (v) is eighty percent of the speed of light in the vacuum (c)

A chair of mass 30.0 kg is at rest on a horizontal floor. The floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of 8
miv72 [106K]
First make sure you draw a force diagram. You should have Fn going up, Fg going down, Ff going left and another Fn going diagonally down to the right. The angle of the diagonal Fn (we'll call it Fn2) is 35° and Fn2 itself is 80N. Fn2 can be divided into two forces: Fn2x which is horizontal, and Fn2y which is vertical. Right now we only care about Fn2y.

To solve for Fn2y we use what we're given and some trig. Drawing out the actual force of Fn2 along with Fn2x and Fn2y we can see it makes a right triangle, with 80 as the hypotenuse. We want to solve for Fn2y which is the opposite side, so Sin(35)=y/80. Fn2y= 80sin35 = 45.89N

Next we solve for Fg. To do this we use Fg= 9.8 * m. Mass = 30kg, so Fg = 9.8 * 30 = 294N.

Since the chair isn't moving up or down, we can set our equation equal to zero. The net force equation in the vertical direction will be Fn + Fn2y -Fg = 0. If we plug in what we know, we get Fn + 45.89 -294 = 0. Then solve this algebraically.

Fn +45.89 -294 = 0
Fn +45.89 = 294
Fn = 248.11 N

You'll get a more accurate answer if you don't round Fn2y when solving for it, it would be something along the lines of 45.88611 etc

Approximately 1.000 g each of four gasses H2, Ne, Ar, and Kr are placed in a sealed container all under1.5 atm of pressure. Assu
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

The partial pressure of H2 is 0.375 atm

The partial pressure of Ne is also 0.375 atm

Explanation:

Mass of H2 = 1 g

Mass of Ne = 1 g

Mass of Ar = 1 g

Mass of Kr = 1 g

Total mass of gas mixture = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 4 g

Pressure of sealed container = 1.5 atm

Partial pressure of H2 = (mass of H2/total mass of gas mixture) × pressure of sealed container = 1/4 × 1.5 = 0.375 atm

Partial pressure of Ne = (mass of Ne/total mass of gas mixture) × pressure of sealed container = 1/4 × 1.5 = 0.375 atm

The ends of a massless rope are attached to two stationary objects (e.g., two trees or two cars) so that the rope makes a straig
Virty [35]

Answer:

1. The tension in the rope is everywhere the same.

2. The magnitudes of the forces exerted on the two objects by the rope are the same.

3. The forces exerted on the two objects by the rope must be in opposite directions.

Explanation:

"Massless ropes" do not have a<em> "net force"</em> which means that it is able to transmit the force from one end of the rope to the other end, perfectly. It is known for its property of having a total force of zero. In order to attain this property, the magnitude of the forces exerted on the two stationary objects by the rope are the same and in opposite direction. <u>So this explains number 2 & 3 answers.</u>

Since the objects that are held by the rope are stationary, then this means that the tension in the rope is also stationary. This means that the tension in the rope everywhere is the same (provided that the rope is still or in a straight line, as stated in the situation above, and is being held by two points). <u>So, this explains number 1.</u>
