Discoveries take place by chance but when you try to understand something else. Ancient alchemists wanted to make gold from other metals and by the way the next generation scientists experimented and postulated atomic structure revising and improving the knowledge from time to time. The alchemists may not exist but science branched out into myriad sciences and technologies. It all started from philosophy of matter. Bohr model is considered to be the first and foremeost affirmative postulate to describe the atomic structure.

PS: This answer needs improvement from physicist and chemist point of view.

What would happen is scientist kept their experimental result secret?

Another scientist would have to 'discover' it again. For example, say I invented a flying car, but kept the special rocket fuel formula a secret. Someone else would look at my work and be able to figure it out, or they would do trial-and-error to figure it out.


What are things with light on the bottom and lights up a glass figure?

A lighted base or LED light stand placed underneath a glass figure can create a glowing effect by illuminating the figure from below. This technique helps to enhance the appearance of the glass figure by making it look more vibrant and visually appealing.


Why do scientists see a blur when they look at an atom under a microscope?

Scientists see a blur when they look at an atom under a microscope because the size of atoms is on the scale of a few tenths of a nanometer, which is smaller than the wavelength of visible light. This means that the light waves cannot resolve the details of the atom's structure, leading to a blurred image.


How do scientist use physics?

Scientist use physics for all sorts of things. Scientist can use Newtons and other gravity-related laws to work out the trajectory of a crashing satellite. If scientist wanted to, he could look use molecular physics to predict how chemicals will react. Scientist is a pretty cool guy.


Who can explain the charge of most types of matter?

Protons and electrons are responsible for the charge of most types of matter. Protons have a positive charge, while electrons have a negative charge. The overall charge of an atom or molecule depends on the balance between the number of protons and electrons.
