Write a explanation explaining why red is a beautiful color is not a hypothesis
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

A hypothesis in science is a testable explanation that is yet to be tested via experimentation. It is a predictive statement or suggested solution to an observation. A hypothesis aims at finding a possible explanation/answer to a question, which is subject to testing. One important aspect of formulating a hypothesis is that it tends to connect the independent variable with the dependent/measurable variable.

The statement "RED IS A BEAUTIFUL COLOR" cannot be considered a hypothesis because it does not aim to answer a question that can undergo experimental testing. This statement can not be measured via experimentation. The statement is not a possible answer to a question but rather a personal opinion about something.

The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years. how long will it take for 7/8 of a sample of carbon-14 to decay
wlad13 [49]
The half life of Carbon-14 is 5730 years, how many years would it take for 7/8 of the original amount to decay? 

<span>Can somebody please help with this problem. I *think* I understand the basics of what a half life is. If I learned correctly, its the amount it takes for half of a sample to decay. It should also happen exponentially, 1/2 remaining after one half life, 1/4 after the second, 1/16 after the third etc. I'm still a little shaky though. Could somebody please clarify what exactly a half life is and how it can be determined (i.e. how to find the time it would take for 7/8 to decay) </span>

A chunk of ice with a mass of 1.2 kg melts and absorbs 3.33 x 10³J of energy. Which best describes what has happened in this sys
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

- Its entropy increases.

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as a 'measure of the amount of energy in a physical system that cannot be used to do work.' It is also employed to denote randomness, disorder, or uncertainty of the arrangement/system. In the given system, the melting of ice denotes the 'increase in entropy' as the amount of energy unavailable to do work increases('absorbs 3.33 x 10³J of energy'). Thus, <u>this signifies that the entropy increases with a rise in temperature as it allows the substance to have greater kinetic energy</u>.

A uniform solid disk rolls without slipping down an incline making an angle θ with the horizontal. What is its acceleration? (En
Maru [420]

Answer:

aCM = (2/3)*g*Sin θ

Explanation:

Consider a uniform solid disk having mass M,  radius R and rotational inertia I  about its center of mass, rolling without  slipping down an inclined plane.

In order to get the linear acceleration of the object’s center of mass, aCM ,

down the incline,  we analyze this as follows:

The force of gravity (W = Mg) acting straight down  is resolved into components parallel and  perpendicular to the incline.

Since the object rolls without  slipping there is a force of  friction (Ff) acting on the object,  at it’s point of contact with the  incline, in the direction up  the incline.

Newton’s 2nd Law gives then for acceleration down the incline

∑Fx' = m*aCM   ⇒    m*g*Sin θ - Ff = m*aCM

The force of friction also causes a torque around the center of mass

having lever arm R so we can also write

τ = R*Ff = I*α

Solving for the friction,    Ff = I*α / R

This is used in the expression  derived from the 2nd Law:

m*g*Sin θ - Ff = m*g*Sin θ - (I*α / R) = m*aCM

The objects angular acceleration is related to the linear acceleration  of the edge that contacts the incline by

a = R*α

Since the object rolls without  slipping this has the same  magnitude as aCM so we have  that

α = aCM / R

Using this in

m*g*Sin θ - (I*α / R) = m*g*Sin θ - (I*(aCM / R) / R) = m*aCM

⇒  aCM = (m*g*Sin θ*R²) / (I + m*R²)

if I = (1/2)*m*R²   (for a uniform solid disk)

we get

aCM = (2/3)*g*Sin θ
