A scientific theory should make testable predictions and if those predictions are found to be incorrect the theory should be dismissed.

He argued that science advances best through the use of deductive reasoning, known as critical rationalism, as its primary emphasis. Popper coined the term critical rationalism to describe his philosophy. Popper rejected the empiricist view that basic statements are infallible.

Karl Popper was a scientific realist against his will. Despite his own limitations regarding the forms of acceptable scientific reasoning and the extent of empirical evidence, he advocated a very real conception of scientific goals and outcomes. A significant contribution stems from his rejection of induction in empirical science.

A transmission diffraction grating with 420 lines/mm is used to study the light intensity of di event orders (n). A screen is lo
Goshia [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Diffraction grating is used to form interference pattern of dark and bright band.

Distance between adjacent slits (a ) = 1 / 420 mm

= 2.38 x 10⁻³ mm

2.38 x 10⁻⁶ m

wave length of red light

= 680 x 10⁻⁹ m

For bright red band

position x on the screen

= n λD / a ,         n = 0,1,2,3 etc

D = distance of screen

putting n = 1 , 2 and 3 , we can get three locations of bright red band.

x₁ = λD / a

=  680 x 10⁻⁹ x 2.8 / 2.38 x 10⁻⁶

= .8 m

= 80 cm

Position of second bright band

= 2 λD / a

= 2 x 80

= 160 cm

Position of third bright band

= 3 λD / a

= 3 x 80

= 240 cm

Two masses are attracted by a gravitational force of 7 N.
damaskus [11]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: F  = 0.4375 N. The force will be 16 times lower than with the first conditions.

Explanation:

Data

F = 7 N

F = ?  if the masses is quartered

Formula

F = \frac{Km1m2}{r2}

Process

Normal conditions F = Km₁m₂/r²  = 7              

When masses quartered        F = K(m₁/4)(m₂/4)/r²  = ?

                                                F = K(m₁m₂/16)/r²

                                                F = K(m₁m₂/16r²      = 7/16  = 0.4375 N
