What movement state are Leucippus' atoms always in?

  • Constant motion

  • Static

  • Circular motion

  • Expanding

Answer

The answer is constant motion. Leucippus, an ancient Greek philosopher, proposed that all matter is composed of tiny, indivisible particles called atoms, which are in constant motion. He believed that the differences in the properties of various substances arise from the variations in the size, shape, and arrangement of these atoms. This concept laid the foundation for our modern understanding of the atomic nature of matter.
