Development of new areas in science and technology affects theories in a way that the theory, because of new information can change. Almost all theories change over time because of new evidence and new information. Sometimes they even become obsolete because a new theory is formed that is better than the old theory.

For example, Newtons theory of gravity is still good enough for some area of physical research, when we talk about macroscopic bodies that don't have a very high velocity. But Newtons theory has been expanded by Einstein's theory of relativity and quantum mechanics because those theories explain in a much more precise way how particles like photons act when they have very high velocities and how very small particles, like electrons act. 

All of the other options here are false. Theories can't, by definition become laws. Theories can't, by definition, become facts. And finally, theories, by definition, can't become hypotheses.

Answer:

The resultant velocity is <u>169.71 km/h at angle of 45° measured clockwise with the x-axis</u> or the east-west line.

Explanation:

Considering west direction along negative x-axis and north direction along  positive y-axis

Given:

The car travels at a speed of 120 km/h in the west direction.

The car then travels at the same speed in the north direction.

Now, considering the given directions, the velocities are given as:

Velocity in west direction is, \overrightarrow{v_1}=-120\ \vec{i}

Velocity in north direction is, \overrightarrow{v_2}=120\ \vec{j}

Now, since v_1\ and\ v_2 are perpendicular to each other, their resultant magnitude is given as:

|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=\sqrt{|\overrightarrow{v_1}|^2+|\overrightarrow{v_2}|^2}

Plug in the given values and solve for the magnitude of the resultant.This gives,

|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=\sqrt{(120)^2+(120)^2}\\\\|\overrightarrow{v_{res}}|=120\sqrt{2} = 169.71\ km/h

Let the angle made by the resultant be 'x' degree with the east-west line or the x-axis.

So, the direction is given as:

x=\tan^{-1}(\frac{|v_2|}{|v_1|})\\\\x=\tan^{-1}(\frac{120}{-120})=\tan^{-1}(-1)=-45\ deg(clockwise\ angle\ with\ the\ x-axis)

Therefore, the resultant velocity is 169.71 km/h at angle of 45° measured clockwise with the x-axis or the east-west line.

If you walk 30 meters forwards, and then turn around and walk 25 meters backwards, what is the distance that you walked? What di
xeze [42]

Given :

Walk in forward direction is 30 m .

Walk in backward direction is 25 m .

To Find :

The distance and displacement .

Solution :

We know , distance is total distance covered and displacement is distance between final and initial position .

So , distance travelled is :

D = 30 + 25 m = 55 m .

Now , we first move 30 m in forward direction and then 25 m in backward direction .

So , displacement is :

D = 30 - 25 m = 5 m .

Therefore , distance and displacement covered is 55 m and 5 m respectively .

Hence , this is the required solution .

svetoff [14.1K]
29.213 cm3


First, calculate the mass of the water used. You do this by subtracting the original mass of the flask from the combined mass of the water and flask, giving:60.735 g - 31.601 g = 29.134 g
So we now know we have 29.134 g of water. To calculate the volume of the flask, simply divide by the density of the water, giving:29.134 g / (0.9973 g/cm3) = 29.213 cm3
