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.

Initially, a particle is moving at 5.25 m/s at an angle of 35.5° above the horizontal. Three seconds later, its velocity is 6.0
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

 a =( -0.32 i ^ - 2,697 j ^)  m/s²

Explanation:

This problem is an exercise of movement in two dimensions, the best way to solve it is to decompose the terms and work each axis independently.

Break down the speeds in two moments

initial

  v₀ₓ = v₀ cos θ

  v₀ₓ = 5.25 cos 35.5

v₀ₓ = 4.27 m / s

   v_{oy} = v₀ sin θ

 v_{oy}= 5.25 sin35.5

v_{oy} = 3.05 m / s

Final

vₓ = 6.03 cos (-56.7)

vₓ = 3.31 m / s

v_{y} = v₀ sin θ

v_{y} = 6.03 sin (-56.7)

v_{y} = -5.04 m / s

Having the speeds and the time, we can use the definition of average acceleration that is the change of speed in the time order

    a = (v_{f} - v₀) /t

    aₓ = (3.31 -4.27)/3

    aₓ = -0.32 m/s²

    a_{y} = (-5.04-3.05)/3

   a_{y} =  -2.697 m/s²

How did astronomers precisely determine the length of an Astronomical Unit in the 1960s?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Use of telemetry and radar astronomy

Explanation:

An astronomical Unit (AU) is a unit of measuring distances in outer space, which is based on the approximate distance between the earth and the Sun.

After several years of trying to approximate the distance between the Sun and the Earth using several methods based on geometry and some other calculations, advancements in technology made available the presence of special motoring equipment, which can be placed in outer space to remotely monitor and measure the position of the sun.

The use of direct radar measurements to the sun (radar astronomy) have also made the determination of the AU more accurate.

A standard radar pulse of known speed is sent to the Sun, and the time with which it takes to return is measured,  once this is recorded, the distance between the Earth and the Sun can be calculated using

distance = speed X time.

However, most of these means have to be corrected for parallax errors
