How have moral and ethical issues influenced science

Physics
1 answer:
umka2103 [35]3 years ago

Often times, moral and ethical issues could hindrance the development of science.
For example, the cloning technology has been hindranced by these type of issues since the beginning of its creation.
The moral and ethical aspect of society somehow oppose the technology because they feel that the sicentists are 'playing God' and doing something that humans are not suppose to be doing, even though there might be overwhelming benefits from the technology.

What best describes the dropping height of a ball that bounced back up to a height of 45 centimeters?
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:C:Less than 45 centimeters, as the ball transforms some of its potential energy into thermal energy and sound energy

Less than 45 centimeters, as the ball transforms some of its potential energy into thermal energy and sound energy.

Although the initial energy (potential energy is preserved), the energy of deformation as the ball strikes a surface creates energy dissipation in the form of frictional heat and audible sound energy.

Every time the ball bounces, its height will be less than its previous height.

An airplane of mass 1.60 ✕ 104 kg is moving at 66.0 m/s. The pilot then increases the engine's thrust to 7.70 ✕ 104 N. The resis
Ivan

(a) No, because the mechanical energy is not conserved

Explanation:

The work-energy theorem states that the work done by the engine on the airplane is equal to the gain in kinetic energy of the plane:

W=\Delta K (1)

However, this theorem is only valid if there are no non-conservative forces acting on the plane. However, in this case there is air resistance acting on the plane: this means that the work-energy theorem is no longer valid, because the mechanical energy is not conserved.

Therefore, eq. (1) can be rewritten as

W=\Delta K + E_{lost}

which means that the work done by the engine (W) is used partially to increase the kinetic energy of the airplane (\Delta K) and part is lost because of the air resistance (E_{lost}).

(b) 77.8 m/s

First of all, we need to calculate the net force acting on the plane, which is equal to the difference between the thrust force and the air resistance:

F=7.70\cdot 10^4 N - 5.00 \cdot 10^4 N=2.70\cdot 10^4 N

Now we can calculate the acceleration of the plane, by using Newton's second law:

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{2.70\cdot 10^4 N}{1.60\cdot 10^4 kg}=1.69 m/s^2

where m is the mass of the plane.

Finally, we can calculate the final speed of the plane by using the equation:

v^2- u^2 = 2aS

where

v=? is the final velocity

u=66.0 m/s is the initial velocity

a=1.69 m/s^2 is the acceleration

S=5.00 \cdot 10^2 m is the distance travelled

Solving for v, we find

v=\sqrt{u^2+2aS}=\sqrt{(66.0 m/s)^2+2(1.69 m/s^2)(5.00\cdot 10^2 m)}=77.8 m/s

Elemental analysis of the unknown gas from part a revealed that it is 30.45% n and 69.55% o by mass. What is the molecular formu
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

the molecular formula for the gas is NO₂

Explanation:

since it contains

Nitrogen = n → 30.45%

Oxygen = o → 69.55%

and 30.45%+69.55% = 100% , then the gas only contains nitrogen and oxygen

Also we know that the proportion of oxygen over nitrogen  is

proportion of oxygen over nitrogen  = moles of oxygen / moles of nitrogen

since

moles = mass / molecular weight

then for a sample of 100 gr of the unknown gas

mass of oxygen = 69.55%*100 gr = 69.55 gr

mass of Nitrogen = 30.45%*100 gr = 30.45 gr

proportion of oxygen over nitrogen = (mass of oxygen/ molecular weight)/(mass of nitrogen / molecular weight of nitrogen ) =  (69.55 gr/ 16 gr/mol) /( 30.45 gr /14 gr/mol) = 1.998 mol of O/ mol of N≈ 2 mol of O/ mol of N

therefore there are 2 atoms of oxygen per atom of nitrogen

thus the molecular formula for the gas is:

NO₂

1.Calculate the energy transferred by a 12V hairdryer, running on a current of 0.50A, that is left on for 8.0 minutes.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

1. Energy = 2880 Joules.

2. Energy = 60 Joules.

3. Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

1. Voltage = 12 Volts

Current = 0.5 Amps

Time, t = 8 mins to seconds = 8 * 60 = 480 seconds

To find the energy;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 12 * 0.5

Power = 6 Watts

Next, we find the energy transferred;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 6 * 480

Energy = 2880 Joules

2. Charge, Q = 4 coulombs

Potential difference, p.d = 15V

To find the total energy transferred;

Energy = Q * p.d

Energy = 4 * 15

Energy = 60 Joules

3. Voltage = 6 Volts

Current = 1 Amps

Time = 2 minutes to seconds = 2 * 60 = 120 seconds

To find the quantity of charge;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Quantity of charge = 1 * 120

Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs
