What is the primary difference between a hypothesis and a theory

Physics

<span>A theory is a tested, well-substantiated, unifying explanation for a set of verified, proven factors. A theory is always backed by evidence.

A hypothesis is only a suggested possible outcome, and is testable and falsifiable.</span>

postnew [5]

Answer:

ucosφ=-v2cosθ2\\\\φ=cos^{-1} (\frac{-v2cosθ2}{cosφ} )

Explanation:

Two identical sticky masses m are moving in the xy-plane, with their momenta at an angle of φ with one another. They are each moving at the same speed v when they collide at the origin of the coordinates and stick together. After the collision, the masses move at an angle −θ2 with respect to the +x axis at speed v2 .1. What was the angle φ?

from the principle of momentum

In a system of colliding bodies,we know that the total momentum before collision will equal to the total momentum after collision.

Take note that momentum is the product of mass and velocity

momentum before collision=momentum after collision

mass, m

u=initial velocity of the identical masses

v2=the common velocity after the collision

Note that the collision is inelastic , since they both moved with the same velocity

umcosφ+umcosφ=(m+m)v2cos−θ2

2mucosφ=2mv2cos−θ2

ucosφ=-v2cosθ2\\\\φ=cos^{-1} (\frac{-v2cosθ2}{cosφ} )

Question 8 of 10
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is A    

Explanation:

In this exercise we are given a graph of temperature versus time.

In calorimeter processes there are two types

* one that when giving thermal energy to the system its temperature increases, this fundamentally due to the greater kinetic energy of the molecular ones, this process observes in the graphs as a straight line of constant slope

* A process donates all the thermal energy that is introduced is cracked in breaking the molecular bonds, taking matter from one thermodynamic state to another, for example: liquid to gas.

This process in curves as a horizontal line, that is, there is no temperature change,

When analyzing the graph shown, parts C and D are the one that show a change in temperature with thermal energy. The correct answer is A

What causes the temperature to increase with height through the stratosphere
miss Akunina [59]

Answer: The temperature increases on the stratosphere with the altitude, given that absorption of the ultraviolet rays by the ozone.

Explanation: On the stratosphere, the water vapor and the umidity are almost nonexistents and, in view of the absorption of ultraviolet rays by the ozon, the temperature increases, reaching 35,6º Fahrenheit.  

The ozone is a unusual type of oxygen molecule. In the stratosphere, the ozone appears on a large scale and warms it up by the absorption of the ultraviolet rays energy.
