A student has a 2% salt water solution and a 7% salt water solution. To best imitate salt water at a local beach, he needs 1 lit

er of a 3.5% salt water solution. He defines x as the amount of 2% solution and writes this equation: 0.2x + 0.7(x – 1) = 0.35(1) He solves the equation and determines that x is about 1.17 liters. He interprets this as needing 1.17 liters of 2% solution to make 1 liter of 3.5% solution. What errors did the student make? Check all that apply.

The answer is A & B

A) The percent values were written incorrectly in the equation.

B) The amount of 7% solution should be written as 1 – x, not x – 1.

The law of universal gravitation states that a gravitational force exists between all objects in the universe. This force is dir
Ber [7]

Answer: D. it has been demonstrated to be without exception under certain stated conditions.

Explanation:

A <u>Law</u> is an affirmation (something established) based on repeated long-term observation of a phenomenon that has been studied and verified.  

That is: A law is present in all known theories and therefore is considered universal. In addition, a law can not be refuted, nor changed, because its precepts have been proven through various studies.  

<u>Unlike theory</u>, which is the set of rules and principles that describe and explain a particular phenomenon and <u>is subject to changes as new evidence emerges that gives meaning to it.  </u>

Then, based on what is explained above, the law of universal gravitation is a statement that exists because it was rigorously tested and verified, therefore it can not be refuted.

States that there is an exchange of materials when two objects come into contact with each other
pishuonlain [190]

"Edmond Locard" states that there is an exchange of materials when two objects come into contact with each other.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A French criminologist who was popular as the "Sherlock Holmes of France," the pioneer in forensic science named as Dr. Edmond Locard. He articulated forensic science's fundamental principle "Each touch leaves a trace." This became known as Locard's philosophy of exchange. A Locard hypothesized that each and every time you touch another person, place or object, the result would be an exchange of materials. Burglars, for instance, will leave evidence of their existence behind and take traces with them too.

Two cars cover the same distance in a straight line. Car a covers the distance at a constant velocity. Car b starts from rest an
Artyom0805 [142]

a) For the motion of car with uniform velocity we have , s = ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2, where s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, t is the time taken a is the acceleration.

In this case s = 520 m, t = 223 seconds, a =0 m/s^2

Substituting

       520 = u*223\\ \\u = 2.33 m/s

 The constant velocity of car a = 2.33 m/s

b) We have s = ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2

s = 520 m, t = 223 seconds, u =0 m/s

Substituting

      520 = 0*223+\frac{1}{2} *a*223^2\\ \\ a = 0.0209 m/s^2

Now we have v = u+at, where v is the final velocity

Substituting

        v = 0+0.0209*223 = 4.66 m/s

So final velocity of car b = 4.66 m/s

c) Acceleration = 0.0209 m/s^2
