What is the force caused by particles hitting a certain area?
The force caused by particles hitting a certain area is called pressure. Pressure is defined as the force per unit area exerted by particles on the surface they are hitting. It is a measure of how concentrated the force is over a specific area.
How do gas particles inside a football cause pressure to be exerted on the wall of th football?
Gas is made up of lots of particles that are all flying about bouncing of anything the touch. The more pressure there is the moreparticles there. So at normal pressure outside the ball there is a normal amount of particles hitting of the outside of the ball. On the inside of the ball the pressure is higher so there are lots of particles hitting of the hinside of the ball effectively pushing it out. Hope this makes sense :)
How did Rutherford explain the results of his gold foil experiment?
Rutherford made the following conclusions:Since most of the alpha particles passed straight through the gold foil without any deflection, most of the space within the atoms is empty.Since some of the alpha particles (which are big in size) were deflected by large angles or bounced backwards, they must have approached some positively charged region responsible for the deflection. This positively charged region is now called the nucleus.As very few alpha particles undergone the deflection, it was concluded that the volume occupied by the central region ( nucleus ) is very small.Since alpha particles which are relatively denser, were deflected by the central volume of charge, it shows that almost the complete mass of the atom must be within the central volume.
Why does the dust particles of a carpet fall down when we hit the carpet with stick?
Hitting the carpet with a stick causes vibrations that dislodge the dust particles from the carpet fibers. The kinetic energy from the impact causes the dust particles to become airborne and then settle back down due to gravity.
Why does smoke particles move in zig-zag?
Smoke particles move in a zig-zag pattern due to the random and turbulent nature of air flow. As the particles are carried by air currents, they are constantly buffeted by molecules in the air, causing them to change direction frequently. This results in the erratic, zig-zag motion that is commonly observed.
Result of charged particles hitting gas particles?
Light, on most cases.
Auroras are caused by what hitting the atmosphere?
Auroras are caused by charged solar particles colliding with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen in the ionosphere, which is the highest level of the atmosphere.
The Aurora borealis is caused by the what?
The Aurora borealis, also known as the Northern Lights, is caused by the interaction between charged particles from the sun and the Earth's magnetic field. When these particles collide with gases in the Earth's atmosphere, such as oxygen and nitrogen, they produce the colorful light display that we see in the sky.
Natural sources of water particles in the atmosphere?
Evaporation. Sunlight hitting any liquid water will cause the water to evaporate into its gaseous state.
What is a kid friendly definition of ionosphere?
The ionosphere is the part of the earth's atmosphere (the layers of gases that surround the earth and stay there because of the earth's gravity) where sunrays are able to ionize some of the gas substance. This means that the gas substances, because of the high amounts of energy in the sunrays hitting them, lose or gain electrically charged particles (such as electrons, the tiny charged particles orbiting the atom core, or ions, larger, electrically charged particles) and themselves become electrically charged. Electrical charge is responsible for the fundamental force of physics called electromagnetism, which is what creates magnetism and electricity. Because of this electromagnetism in the ionosphere, when large bursts of sunrays hit the atmosphere from time to time the amazing northern lights and southern lights, the auroras, become visible in the far north and far south of our planet.
What is the charge for hitting a moving car with a snow ball?
You can be charged up to 600 dollars for hitting a car with a snowball. You can also be arrested and charged with assault.
How does the gas particles move?
From atoms hitting them.
What causes the Aurora borealis (Northern lights)?
Aurora Borealis is caused by particles hitting earth's atmosphere thermosphere and they are stopped, so they give of their energy in the "Northern Lights" or Aurora Borealis.
What causes aurora borealis northern lights?
Aurora Borealis is caused by particles hitting earth's atmosphere thermosphere and they are stopped, so they give of their energy in the "Northern Lights" or Aurora Borealis.
Is it ok to threaten someone by hitting them?
No, you can be charged with battery at least.
How come the Aurora Lights are never the same?
The Aurora lights are caused by particles thrown out by the sun hitting the earth atmopshere, so they look different because they hit the atmosphere at different points.
What causes auroras on Earth?
The suns radiation hitting our atmosphere
