About Models
===About Models===
: [[Model]]s are used to simplify ideas would otherwise be difficult to understand.
: Since [[model]]s simplify a system it causes them to be inaccurate so they cannot always [[explain]] all the phenomena which are [[observe]]d.: Some examples of [[model]]s you should know and their limitations are::*The [[Nuclear Model]] of the [[atom]] - Does not explain the [[Absorption Spectra|absorption]] or [[Emission Spectra|emission]] specific [[wavelength]]s of [[Electromagnetic Wave|electromagnetic waves]].:*The [[Heliocentric Model]] of [[The Solar System]] - Does not account for the wobble of [[The Sun]] since the [[planet]]s actually [[orbit]] the [[Centre of Mass|centre of mass]] of [[The Solar System]], not [[The Sun]].:*The [[Particle Model]] of [[matter]]- Does not [[explain]] the [[Melting Point|melting points]] or [[Boiling Point|boiling points]] of different [[substance]]s.
