Answer: Hello!

Where are most experiments done?

The answer is a laboratory.

The benefits of this choice are that the laboratory is a controlled environment, where all the variables are controlled (a clean place, the temperature is controlled, the pressure is controlled, etc) and this allows us to have a better description of the phenomena that you are observing. Also having a controlled experiment allows doing the same experiment anywhere in the world, in order to see the repetitively of the experiment when is done in other laboratory and by other scientists.

The experimental method is usually taken to be the most scientific of all methods, the 'method of choice'. The main problem with all the non-experimental methods is lack of control over the situation. The experiment method is a means of trying to overcome this problem. The experiment is sometimes described as the cornerstone of psychology: This is partly due to the central role experiments play in many of the physical sciences and also to psychology's historical view of itself s a science. A considerable amount of psychological research uses the experimental method. <span />

A motorcycle starts from rest and has a constant acceleration. In a time interval t, it undergoes a displacement x and attains a

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

√(6ax)

Explanation:

Hi!

The question states that during a time t the motorcyle underwent a displacement x at constant acceleration a starting from rest, mathematically we can express it as:

x=(1/2)at^2

Then the we need to find the time t' for which the displacement is 3x

3x=(1/2)a(t')^2

Solving for t':

t'=√(6x/a)

Now, the velocity of the motorcycle as a function of time is:

v(t)=a*t

Evaluating at t=t'

v(t')=a*√(6x/a)=√(6*x*a)

Which is the final velocity

Have a nice day!

A car turns a certain curve of radius 24.98 m with constant linear speed of

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

3525.19 kg

Explanation:

The computation of the mass of the car is shown below:

As we know that

Fc = m × V^2 ÷ R

m = Fc × R ÷ V^2

Provided that:

Fc = 34.652 kN = 34652 N

R = Radius = 24.98 m

V = speed = 15.67 m/s

So,

m = 34652 × 24.98 ÷ 15.67^2

= 3525.19 kg

Initially, a 2.00-kg mass is whirling at the end of a string (in a circular path of radius 0.750 m) on a horizontal frictionless

drek231 [11]

Answer:

$v_f = 15 \frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using conservation of angular momentum.

The angular momentum $\vec{L}$ is

$\vec{L} = \vec{r} \times \vec{p}$

where $\vec{r}$ is the position and $\vec{p}$ the linear momentum.

We also know that the torque is

$\vec{\tau} = \frac{d\vec{L}}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt} ( \vec{r} \times \vec{p} )$

$\vec{\tau} = \frac{d}{dt} \vec{r} \times \vec{p} + \vec{r} \times \frac{d}{dt} \vec{p}$

$\vec{\tau} = \vec{v} \times \vec{p} + \vec{r} \times \vec{F}$

but, as the linear momentum is $\vec{p} = m \vec{v}$ this means that is parallel to the velocity, and the first term must equal zero

$\vec{v} \times \vec{p}=0$

$\vec{\tau} = \vec{r} \times \vec{F}$

But, as the only horizontal force is the tension of the string, the force must be parallel to the vector position measured from the vertical rod, so

$\vec{\tau}_{rod} = 0$
