When new information conflicts with a hypothesis, the hypothesis _____.?

Physics

Whoa, hold up. When you have a hypothesis, you don't just let it sit there. You TEST it, to see if it holds water. When real information conflicts with a hypothesis, the hypothesis is simply discarded. Period.

If the tests seem to indicate that the hypothesis is true, then you have a THEORY.

Later, if new information or further tests conflict with the theory, (or the theory makes a prediction which fails), then the theory is changed. Depending on the complexity of the theory, the change may be anything from a small tweak to completely discarding it and starting over with a new hypothesis.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Earth's water is always in movement, and the natural water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle, describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. Water is always changing states between liquid, vapor, and ice, with these processes happening in the blink of an eye and over millions of years.

When you stretch a spring 20 cm past its natural length, it exerts a force of 8
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

40 N/m

Explanation:

F = -kx (This is the Hooke's Law equation)

F is the force the spring exerts = 8 N

-k = spring constant

x = displacement (The distance stretched past it's natural length) = 20cm

x needs to be in meters, and 20 cm is = to 0.2 meters

Finally:

8N = -k (0.2m)

-k = 8N / 0.2 m

k = -40 N/m
