Suppose you are choosing between the following three algorithms:

Algorithm A solves problems by dividing them into five sub-problems of half the size, recursively solving each sub-problem, and then combining the solutions in linear time.

Algorithm B solves problems of size n by recursively solving two sub-problems of size n=1 and then combining the solutions in constant time.

Algorithm C solves problems of size n by dividing them into nine sub-problems of size n=3, recursively solving each sub-problem, and then combining the solutions in O(n2) time.

What are the running times of each of these algorithms (in big-O notation), and which would you choose?

Scientists have changed the model of the atom as they have gathered new evidence. one of the atomic models is shown below. what experimental evidence led to the development of this atomic model from the one before it? a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back. the colors of light emitted from heated atoms had very specific energies. experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions. cathode rays were bent in the same way whenever a magnet was brought near them.
