How long does it usually take a hypothesis to become a theory

Physics
2 answers:
Ann [662]3 years ago

Answer:

If enough evidence accumulates to support a hypothesis, it moves to the next step (known as a theory) in the scientific method and becomes accepted as a valid explanation of a phenomenon.

<u>Answer:</u>

Hypothesis is usually referred as an assumption or an observation made without much proof to support the statement. Hence scientists and experimental physicists uses hypothesis and perform experiments and observations to support the theory.

The hypothesis will get transformed into a theory only when there is enough evidence to support the cause and the science behind the set of events. It is dependent upon a number of scientific tests an hence it is not possible to define a time period. It may varies from years to forever (or never).

The loudness, L, measured in decibels (Db), of a sound intensity, I, measured in watts per square meter, is defined as , where a
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

3 times louder

Explanation:

The Loudness in decibel Db  L = 10㏒(I/I₀)  where I = sound intensity level and I₀ = threshold of hearing = 10⁻¹² W/m².

Now, for Jessica, I₁ = sound intensity level of Jessica's music = 10⁻⁹

and I₂ = sound intensity level of Braylee's music = 10⁻³

So, substituting the variables into the equation, we have

L₁ = 10㏒(I₁/I₀)

L₁ = 10㏒(10⁻⁹/10⁻¹²)

L₁ = 10㏒(10³)

L₁ = 3 × 10㏒10

L₁ = 30㏒10

L₁ = 30 dB

Now, for Braylee, I₂ = sound intensity level of Braylee's music = 10⁻³

So, substituting the variables into the equation, we have

L₂ = 10㏒(I₁/I₀)

L₂ = 10㏒(10⁻³/10⁻¹²)

L₂ = 10㏒(10⁹)

L₂ = 9 × 10㏒10

L₂ =90㏒10

L₂ = 90 dB

So, the number of times Braylee's music is louder than Jessica's music is L₂/L₁ = 90 dB/30 dB = 3

So, Braylee's music is 3 times louder than Jessica's music

You breathe in more oxygen than you breathe out. And you breathe out more carbon dioxide than you breathe in.
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

B. chemical only.

Explanation:

In the process of respiration which is a chemical process where organic compound is released. In this process exergonic reaction takes place in which compound changes into different ones.

Following are the two types of respiration:-

1] Aerobic respiration:- In this type of respiration requirement of oxygen is more and energy released is more.

2] Anaerobic respiration:- In this type of respiration oxygen requirement is less and energy released is also less.

a fast charged particle passes perpendicularly through a thin glass sheet of index of refraction 1.5. The particle emits light i
NeX [460]

The minimum speed of the particle is the Speed of light in glass is c/μ=2×108m/s.

<h3>Why is the refractive index important?</h3>

The higher the refractive index the slower the light travels, which causes a correspondingly increased change in the direction of the light within the material. What this means for lenses is that a higher refractive index material can bend the light more and allow the profile of the lens to be lower.

Refractive index values are usually determined at standard temperature. A higher temperature means the liquid becomes less dense and less viscous, causing light to travel faster in the medium.

A brick of gold is 0.1 m wide, 0.1 m high, and 0.2 m long. The density of gold is 19,300 kg/m3. What pressure does the brick exe
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The pressure exerted by the brick on the table is 18,933.3 N/m².

Explanation:

Given;

height of the brick, h = 0.1 m

density of the brick, ρ = 19,300 kg/m³

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

The pressure exerted by the brick on the table is calculated as;

P = ρgh

P = (19,300)(9.81)(0.1)

P = 18,933.3 N/m²

Therefore, the pressure exerted by the brick on the table is 18,933.3 N/m².
