"Which of the statements about hypotheses and theories is true?

Physics
1 answer:
Ostrovityanka [3K]7 days ago

Answer:

D) A scientific theory is a comprehensive summary of a hypothesis that has undergone extensive validation through repeated experimentation.

Explanation:

A hypothesis serves as an initial explanation or proposes a potential causal link between various phenomena, offered for a specific observable occurrence. Every scientific theory must be grounded in evidence, which is gathered by testing and challenging hypotheses. Thus, hypotheses form the foundation of a scientific theory.

Definamos h como la distancia que hay desde el borde del pozo hasta la superficie del agua (en metros).

Consideremos la gravedad g como 9.8 m/s² y despreciemos la resistencia del aire.

La velocidad inicial vertical del guijarro es nula.
Ya que el guijarro impacta el agua tras 1.5 segundos, entonces:
h = 0.5 * (9.8 m/s²) * (1.5 s)² = 11.025 m

Resultado: 11.025 m

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant
Yuliya22 [3221]

Answer:

v_f = 13m/s + 0.75 \frac{m}{s^2} * 16 s= 13 m/s +12m/s = 25 m/s

Explanation:

In this scenario, we determine the initial velocity as follows:

v_i = 7 \frac{m}{s}

The final velocity in this instance can be expressed as:

v_f = 13 \frac{m}{s}

It is noted that transitioning from 7m/s to 13m/s takes 8 seconds. We can apply a specific kinematic equation to find the acceleration for the first part of the journey:

v_f = v_i +at

Solved for acceleration, we find:

a = \frac{v_f -v_i}{t} = \frac{13 m/s -7 m/s}{8 s}= 0.75 \frac{m}{s^2}

For the subsequent route, we assume constant acceleration and that the train continues for 16 seconds, beginning with an initial velocity of 13m/s from the previous segment, allowing us to calculate the final speed via the following formula:

v_f = v_ i +a t

Substituting into the equation yields:

v_f = 13m/s + 0.75 \frac{m}{s^2} * 16 s= 13 m/s +12m/s = 25 m/s

A vector A is added to B=6i-8j. The resultant vector is in the positive x direction and has a magnitude equal to A . What is the
Yuliya22 [3221]

The answer is letter d, 8.3.

 

Here’s a solution for the given problem:

 

We have:

B = 6i - 8j 


Let A be unknown; we'll denote A as = mi + nj 



The resultant A+B lies along the x-axis (which implies A+B = Ki + 0j, where K is yet to be determined,

 

and we also know the magnitude of A+B is equivalent to the magnitude of A,

 

therefore, mag(A+B)=K=sqrt(m^2+n^2), or K^2 = m^2+n^2. 



Using vector addition, A+B becomes (m+6)i + (n-8)j.

 

Since we know A+B = Ki + 0j, we can establish that: 

m + 6 = K 


n - 8 = 0, which gives n=8. 

Thus, K^2=m^2+n^2 means (m+6)^2 = m^2 +8^2 


= m^2 + 12m + 36 = m^2 + 64 


which gives us 12m = 28 


m = 2.33333... 

Consequently, the magnitude of A is sqrt[(2.333...)^2 + 8^2] = 8.3333.
