Answer;

C. never become laws; based on strong scientific support; may change based on evidence.

Explanation;

-A scientific theory is a generally accepted, thoroughly tested and confirmed explanation for a set of observations or phenomena. Scientific theory is the foundation of scientific knowledge.

-In addition, in many scientific disciplines (less so in biology) there are scientific laws, often expressed in mathematical formulas, which describe how elements of nature will behave under certain specific conditions.

An electron is moving east in a uniform electric field of 1.47 {\rm N/C} directed to the west. At point A, the velocity of the e
zimovet [89]

Answer:

a) v = 6.25\times 10^{5} m/s

b) v = 1.73\times 10^{4} m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Electric field = 1.47 N/C

velocity of electron is 4.55\times 10^5 m/s

distance of point b from point A is 0.55 m

we know that acceleration of particle is given as

a) for electron

a =\frac{q E}{m}

a = \frac{1.6\times 10^{-19} \times 1.47}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

a = 2.58\times 10^{11} m/s^2

from equation of motion we have

v^2 = u^2 + 2aS

      = 20.7025 \times 10^{10} + 2\times 2.58\times 10^{11} \times 0.355

v = 6.25\times 10^{5} m/s

b) for proton

a = \frac{1.6\times 10^{-19} \times -1.47}{1.6\times 10^{-27}}

a = -1.41\times 10^{8} m/s^2

from equation of motion we have

v^2 = u^2 + 2aS

       = 3.8025 \times 10^{8} - 2\times 1.41\times 10^{8} \times 0.355

v = 1.73\times 10^{4} m/s

What are three properties of electromagnetic waves?
Zolol [24]

The three properties of electromagnetic waves are; they travel at the speed of light, they include ultraviolet waves, and they can transfer energy through empty space.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2><h3>A wave</h3>
  • A wave is a transmission of a disturbance. It involves transmission of energy from one point which is the source to another point.
  • Waves may be classified depending on the need for a transmission medium or based on the vibration of particles relative to the direction of wave motion.
  • Waves may be either transverse or longitudinal based on the direction of wave motion relative to the vibration of particles
  • Additionally waves may be classified as either electromagnetic wave or mechanical based on the need for a transmission medium.
<h3>Electromagnetic waves  </h3>
  • Electromagnetic waves are types of waves that do not require a material medium for transmission.
  • All waves of the electromagnetic spectrum are electromagnetic transverse waves that do not require a material medium for transmission.
  • They include; radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultra-violet, x-rays, and gamma rays.
  • All waves of the electromagnetic spectrum travel with a speed of light, 3.0 x10^8 m/s.
  • Additionally, electromagnetic waves possess energy that is given by; E = hf; where h is the plank's constant and f is the frequency.

Sam, whose mass is 78 kg , stands at the top of a 11-m-high, 110-m-long snow-covered slope. His skis have a coefficient of kinet
Valentin [98]

Answer:

v = 8.09   m/s

Explanation:

For this exercise we use that the work done by the friction force plus the potential energy equals the change in the body's energy.

Let's calculate the energy

       

starting point. Higher

         Em₀ = U = m gh

final point. To go down the slope

         Em_f = K = ½ m v²

The work of the friction force is

         W = fr L cos 180

to find the friction force let's use Newton's second law

Axis y

        N - W_y = 0

        N = W_y

X axis

        Wₓ - fr = ma

let's use trigonometry

        sin  θ = y / L

         sin θ = 11/110 = 0.1

         θ = sin⁻¹  0.1

          θ = 5.74º

         sin 5.74 = Wₓ / W

         cos 5.74 = W_y / W

         Wₓ = W sin 5.74

         W_y = W cos 5.74

the formula for the friction force is

         fr = μ N

         fr = μ W cos θ

Work is friction force is

         W_fr = - μ W L cos θ  

Let's use the relationship of work with energy

        W + ΔU = ΔK

         -μ mg L cos 5.74 + (mgh - 0) = 0  - ½ m v²

        v² = - 2 μ g L cos 5.74 +2 (gh)

        v² = 2gh - 2 μ gL cos 5.74

let's calculate

        v² = 2 9.8 11 - 2 0.07 9.8 110 cos 5.74

        v² = 215.6 -150.16

        v = √65.44

        v = 8.09   m/s
