Explain why a law is accepted as facr, but a theory is not​

Physics
1 answer:
Verizon [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

A law and theory are distinct levels in the scientific method. They do not lead to one another.

A law is a description of an observed phenomenon in the natural world. Laws are always true and do not provide explanations as to why they hold true.

A theory is an explanation of an observed phenomenon. It is usually based on experimental evidence and bounded most time in the limits of available data.

  • A law cannot be deposed. It is a fact and holds true at all times.
  • Theories can be discarded even with new technological advancements that provides a new way of study.
  • This is why it is not a fact.

How to measure the density of a white dwarf if its diameter is 1000 km and weighs 10³⁰ kg?
Afina-wow [57]

Well, first of all, 10³⁰ kg is its mass, not its weight.

-- Density of anything is (its mass) divided by (its volume).

-- You know the white dwarf's mass.

-- The volume of any sphere is  (4/3) (pi) (radius)³

-- The radius is  1/2  of the diameter.

--  Now you have the ball.  Run with it.

I did it quickly and got  (1.91 x 10¹²) kilogram/meter³ .
That may be wrong.  You have to check it.  And even
if it's correct, you probably want to express density in
units of gram/cm³ the way everybody always does.

Rasek [7]

The geologic time scale originally ordered Earth’s rocks by relative age.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Geologic time scale is the measure of events occurred in year wise from the starting of universe. Mostly dating of rocks and fossil fuels are doing the trends still now. In order to measure the age of rocks, geological time scale have preferred relative age mode.

In this system, the age of rocks are measured and compared layer by layer. So the lowest layer of rock will be having the maximum age. As we don’t know the starting time of universe, so this method of comparison between the layers to order the rocks is best. So, depending upon the position of the rocks, the age can be determined.

A long coaxial cable (Fig. 2.26) carries a uniform volume charge density rho on the inner cylinder (radius a), and a uniform sur
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

a) E = ρ / e0

b) E = ρ*a / (e0 * r)

c) E = 0

Explanation:

Because of the geometry, the electric field lines will all have a radial direction.

Using Gauss law

Q/e0 = \int \int E * dA

Using a Gaussian surface that is cylinder concentric to the cable, the side walls will have a flux of zero, because the electric field lines will be perpendicular. The round wall of the cylinder will have the electric field lines normal to it.

We can make this cylinder of different radii to evaluate the electric field at different points.

Then:

A = 2*π*r (area of cylinder per unit of length)

Q/e0 = 2*π*r*E

E = Q / (2*π*e0*r)

Where Q is the charge contained inside the cylinder.

Inside the cable core:

There is a uniform charge density ρ

Q(r) = ρ * 2*π*r

Then

E = ρ * 2*π*r / (2*π*e0*r)

E = ρ / e0 (electric field is constant inside the charged cylinder.

Between ther inner cilinder and the tube:

Q = ρ * 2*π*a

E = ρ * 2*π*a / (2*π*e0*r)

E = ρ*a / (e0 * r)

Outside the tube, the charges of the core cancel each other.

E=0
