Yes! Particles and atoms and ever larger assemblages of atoms. All this is a consequence of quantum mechanics.

Why is a perfect vacuum impossible in nature?

Due to quantum uncertainty and the fact that pairs of particles and anti-particles pop into existence at completely random places within a true vacuum (think of the space very close to a singularity) and instantly annihlate each other creating photons which , in theory would destroy the ideal vacuum you speak of.


What subatomic particle did the gold foil experiment discover?

Rutherford's gold foil experiment did not discover the existence of any subatomic particles, but it did show the existence of a small, tightly packed, positively charged nucleus and thus led to the discovery of protons.


How do particles behave in a solution?

It depends on the mixture. What is in the solution makes it act differently. Like if you put carbon dioxide with water, (pop) , it will make bubbles. But, if you put chocolate syrup in milk, it will mix completely like the pop but in a different way. So they mostly act by mixing completely into each other, depending.


What are tachyons?

Tachyons are any theoretical particles that have an imaginary mass. Because all tachyons have an imaginary mass, the velocity of all tachyons must exceed the speed of light (contrasted with Bradyons like electrons, quarks, and composite particles which must always move slower than light). Most modern theories suggest that even if such particles exist, they would likely be short lived due to effects such as tachyon condensation.


Who provided evidence for the existence of an atomic nucleas?

In 1911, the scientist Ernest Rutherford directed a beam of alpha particles (each one equivalent to a helium nucleus, with 2 protons and 2 neutrons) at a thin sheet of gold foil - many of the alpha particles (with a charge of +2) were deflected straight back, repelled by the positively charged atomic nuclei within the gold foil. This provided experimental evidence for the existence of the nucleus for the first time.

Is making something out of nothing possible?

no -------------- According to research in quantum physics, some particles pop in and out of existence in space, meaning it is sometimes possible something can come out of nothing.

How is the existence of the neutrino confirmed?

Actually, we can't even confirm the existence of atoms, let alone subatomic particles. But when scientists conduct experiments, they come to the conclusion that the particles are indeed valid. The more discrete physics becomes, the more theoretical it is.


What observations led scientists to propose the existence of subatomic particles?

Atoms were found to be divisible after all . But scientists discovered that the atoms were made of smller perticles , called subatomic particles.


What experimental results support the existence of gravity particles?

There is no such experiments yet because of the range of energy which should be used.

How the life come to existence?

There is a belief that many small particles of matter in nature made living organisms ie : humans .


Do vinegar and pop explode?

not unless its in confined space = vinegar tries to break down the particles in soda.


Can your existence in spacetime be attributed to an equilibrium between atomic particles leaving and arriving to your world just like a saturated solution?

Yes

How do you prove the existence of an atom?

Using modern technology like scanning tunneling microscopy, pictures can be taken of atoms. Their existence has also been proven through Einstein's Brownian motion calculations, to mathematically estimate the distance tiny particles will move based on molecular bombardment. Another experiment was done using these calculations on particles of resin in water with positive results.


Does string theory support God's existence?

String theory is simply an enhancement of the traditional particle theory, that takes into account newly observed facts about subatomic particles. It neither proves nor disproves the existence of God. Nothing in science does this.
