Which of the following is a hypothesis?

inna [77]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hypothesis is one of the science methods. Hypothesis is the same as guessing. It's a scientific method that precedes observations.

According to the question asking that Which of the following is a hypothesis ?

The correct option is C which is

If a squid is attacked by a predator, it will squirt ink

It is an hypothesis because there is no experimental evidence to back it up.

Determine the angle of an incline that would yield a constant velocity, given the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10.

azamat

Answer:

$\theta=5.71^{o}$

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we mus start by drawing a free body diagram of the given situation (See attached picture).

From the free body diagram we can now do a sum of forces in the x and y direction. Let's start with the y-direction:

$\sum F_{y}=0$

$-W_{y}+N=0$

$N=W_{y}$

so:

$N=mgcos(\theta)$

now we can go ahead and do a sum of forces in the x-direction:

$\sum F_{x}=0$

the sum of forces in x is 0 because it's moving at a constant speed.

$-f+W_{x}=0$

$-\mu_{k}N+mg sen(\theta)=0$

$-\mu_{k}mg cos(\theta)+mg sen(\theta)=0$

so now we solve for theta. We can start by factoring mg so we get:

$mg(-\mu_{k} cos(\theta)+sen(\theta))=0$

we can divide both sides into mg so we get:

$-\mu_{k} cos(\theta)+sen(\theta)=0$

this tells us that the problem is independent of the mass of the object.

$\mu_{k} cos(\theta)=sen(\theta)$

we now divide both sides of the equation into $cos(\theta)$ so we get:

$\mu_{k}=\frac{sen(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}$

$\mu_{k}=tan(\theta)$

so we now take the inverse function of tan to get:

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\mu_{k})$

so now we can find our angle:

$\theta=tan^{-1}(0.10)$

$\theta=5.71^{o}$

What happens when an object is dropped?

katrin2010 [14]

When an object is dropped, tossed, or kicked, as long as it is not laying on the ground, it accelerates downward, because of the force of gravity acting on it.

A spherical drop of water carrying a charge of 42 pC has a potential of 620 V at its surface (with V = 0 at infinity). (a) What

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

0.0006091222 m

Explanation:

q = Charge = 42 pC

V = Voltage = 620 V

$\epsilon_0$ = Permittivity of free space = $8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m$

Electric potential is given by (at r = R)

$V=\dfrac{q}{4\pi\epsilon R}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{q}{4\pi\epsilon V}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{42\times 10^{-12}}{4\pi\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 620}\\\Rightarrow R=0.0006091222\ m$

The radius of the drop is 0.0006091222 m

A boy threw a ball upward and it took 3 sec to reach the highest point. Determine the initial velocity of the ball.

makkiz [27]

Answer:

V initial = 29.4 m.s²

Explanation:

( Using the laws of motion)

V final = V initial + Acceleration × time

0 = V initial + ( -9.8)(3)

29.4 = V initial

* I took upward as positive that's why I substituted -9.8 *

* for V final we know that at maximum height the ball is not moving thats why is = 0 *
