Steady flow behavior can manifest in dramatically contrasting ways, most notably through the distinction between laminar and turbulent conditions. Laminar flow is characterized by smooth, parallel layers of fluid – imagine honey pouring slowly and consistently. These layers maintain their order, with each layer sliding gracefully over the next on
Limitations of Thomson's Plum Pudding Model
Thomson's Plum Pudding model, while groundbreaking for its time, faced several challenges as scientists acquired a deeper understanding of atomic structure. One major limitation was its inability to account for the results of Rutherford's gold foil experiment. The model suggested that alpha particles would traverse through the plum pudding with min
