The results of Dominic and Eva's experiment is unreliable and can lead to a pseudoscientific claim primarily because they did not repeat their tests multiple times. Although, they used the same type of stopwatch in recording the time it takes for the chemical reaction to occur, they have different reactions times. Thus, it would have been better if they conducted several trials then obtained the average of their results.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-they did not repeat their tests multiple times.

Explanation:

Pseudoscience or the false science is the scientific practice which is based on the belief system and has no supported evidences.

The pseudoscience facts cannot be verified with the scientific methods which includes the logical questions, hypothesis and results produces through the repeated experiment.

In the given question, Dominic and Eva performed experiments using same stopwatch to note the time of a chemical reaction but they recorded different time period for the same chemical reaction.

This could lead to discrepancies or errors in the results  and formation of conclusion. So experiment must be repeated to avoid the errors which the experimental method lacked.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Therac-25, AECL was able to reduce costs by replacing hardware safety features with software controls.

the Therac-25 was a laptop-controlled radiation therapy machine produced by Atomic energy state Canada limited in 1982 after the Therac-6 and Therac-20 units. It was involved in at least six accidents between 1985 and 1987, in which patients were given massive overdoses state radiation.

The Therac-25 machine was a state-of-the-art linear accelerator developed by using the company Atomic strength Canada restricted (AECL) and a French company CGR to provide radiation treatment to cancer sufferers. The Therac-25 become the most computerized and complicated radiation therapy device state its time.

Which process releases energy that eventually produces lightning in the thunderstorm?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Answer: B. Water condenses to form clouds.

Explanation:

When the moisture condenses, this results in the release of energy. The energy causes the air to be warm and results in the rise of air in the upper atmosphere. This process results in the instability in the atmosphere and cumulonimbus clouds are formed. These clouds support lightening during a thunderstorm.
