The choices can be found elsewhere and as follows:

a. A hypothesis does not provide an explanation but instead only predicts what may happen.
b. A theory does not provide an explanation but instead only predicts what may happen.
c. The explanation given by a theory is well tested and supported by many observations and hypotheses.
<span>d. The explanation given by a hypothesis is well tested and supported by many observations and theories.
</span>
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. A hypothesis does not provide an explanation but instead only predicts what may happen. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

If a cliff jumper leaps off the edge of a 100m cliff, how long does she fall before hitting the water? (assume zero air resistan
andrew-mc [135]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Hello, </em>

<h3><u>QUESTION)</u></h3>

Assuming that the initial velocity of the jumper is zero, on Earth any freely falling object has an acceleration of 9.8 m/s².  

<em>✔ We have : a = v/Δt = ⇔ Δt = v/a </em>

  • Δt = (√2xgxh)/9,8
  • Δt = (14√10)/9,8
  • Δt ≈ 4,5 s

Which of the following statements are true concerning the creation of magnetic fields? Check all that apply. Check all that appl
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

A permanent magnet creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.

An electric current in a conductor creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.

A moving electric charge creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.

Explanation:

Magnet field is a region around the magnet in which the magnetic force can be experienced. A magnet has two poles: North pole and South pole. A Magnetic field originates from north pole and ends at south pole.

Magnets are of two types: Permanent magnet and temporary magnet.

A moving charge produces magnetic field. A stationary charge can not produce a magnetic field.

The rate of flowing charge constitutes an electric current. If the cardboard is placed around the current carrying conductor and the iron fillings spread around the cardboard then the iron nails get stick to it. It means that a current carrying conductor creates a magnetic field around it.

Therefore, the true statements from the given statements are as follows;

A permanent magnet creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.

An electric current in a conductor creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.

A moving electric charge creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.

The focal length for a spherical convex mirror is –20 cm. What is its radius of curvature?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

40 cm

Explanation:

The focus of a spherical convex mirror is the point at which the rays of an object converge in the infinite, it is also the point at which an object must be placed so that its image is formed in the infinite. The distance from the focus to the origin is called the focal length and is called f. It is related to the radius of the mirror, R, according to:

f=-\frac{R}{2}

rewriting for R:

R=-2f=-2*-20cm=40 cm.
