Bohr's theory of the atom was proposed in the early 20th century and was based on the idea that electrons move in fixed orbits around the nucleus. According to this theory, the position and momentum of an electron in an atom can be determined with absolute precision at any given moment, which seems to contradict Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle states that it is impossible to determine the exact position and momentum of a particle simultaneously. This...
Matter is anything that possesses mass, occupies space and may be perceived through one or more senses.
The physical divisions of matter are:
1. Solid : Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around.
2. Liquid : Liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. It will take the shape of its container. Particles can...
The two vectors (say A and B) of different magnitudes cannot be combined to give zero resultant since minimum value of combination is ІA-BІ which is not zero if AB.
The three vectors A, B and C of different magnitudes can be zero such that they form a closed triangle, then,
A+B+C=0
or, C=-(A+B)
Hence, the sum of three vectors may be zero if vector sum of any two vectors is equal and opposite to the third vector.
Note: The vectors can give this result only if...
