Describe the model now used for the structure of an atom. Refer to the constituent particles including their relative masses and charges.

In an atom, the mass is concentrated in the nucleus which is at the centre of the atom. The nucleus is composed of neutrons and protons, each with a relative mass of 1. By comparison, the third component ...

Describe the energy changes as electricity is produced in a fossil fuel station.

To begin with, chemical energy in the fuel is released through combustion and becomes thermal energy. This thermal energy is used to heat water which evaporates and become steam. The rising steam turns tu...

A motorist traveling at 10m/s, was able to bring his car to rest in a distance of 10m. If he had been traveling at 30m/s, in what distance could he bring his cart to rest using the same breaking force?

By just a quick look you might be tempted to say 30 m. However the key information is that the breaking force is the same. We can calculate the deceleration of the car when at 10m/s using the equation ...

A car is moving along a straight horizontal road, with a constant acceleration. The car passes point A, with a speed of ums(-1). 10 seconds later, passes point B, with a speed of 45 ms(-1). The distance from A to B is 300m. Find u.

Here, we must consider our UVAST equations of motion, and our variables.

U=?ms^(-1),  V=45ms^(-1) , A=?ms^(-2),   S= 300m,   T=10s

Our equations of motion are:
