When using science to investigate physical phenomena, which characteristic of the event must exist?

Physics
1 answer:
Vesna [10]3 years ago
6 0

The correct answer is B. Measurable

Explanation:

The use of science to investigate a phenomenon implies using measurements and observations to better understand a phenomenon or test a hypothesis. Moreover, science focuses on natural phenomena that can be objectively studied through measurement instruments such as a thermometer, balance, hydrometer, etc.

In this context, for a phenomenon to be studied by science this needs to be measurable because the use of precise instruments as wells as numbers allow scientist to analyze and understand a phenomenon. Moreover, phenomena that depend on personal perspectives and cannot be measure is considered as non-scientific.

Why is the air drag on a baseball different than it would be for a smooth ball with no stitches? How does this apply to the desi
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The stitches and dimples around a baseball  and a golf ball respectively, disturbs the air drag on the balls once they are in motion, allowing the them to travel more easily.

Explanation:

The stitches on a baseball disturbs the air drag on the ball when the ball is in motion, allowing the ball to travel more easily. Depending on the orientation of the ball in flight, the drag changes as the flow is disturbed by the stitches.  

A smooth ball with no stitches or dimples has more air drag that opposes the motion.

A golf ball is smooth ball with dimples to create a thin turbulent boundary layer of air that clings to the ball's surface. This allows the smoothly flowing air to follow the ball's surface a little farther around the back side of the ball, thereby decreasing the size of the wake, and allowing the ball to travel more easily.

Alex787 [66]
Hey there!

The answer would be B. The sound moves from air to water.

Sound travels through different mediums. It goes fastest in solids, a little slower in liquids, and slowest in air. Sound is a very fast wave, but remember that mediums can differ that. In a vacuum space, there is no sound at all. (ex. outer space)

Hope this helps !

Sitting in a chairlift, Rebecca has a gravitational potential energy of 5,997.6
stira [4]

Answer:

B) 12 m

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is:

PE = mgh

Given PE = 5997.6 J, and m = 51 kg:

5997.6 J = (51 kg) (9.8 m/s²) h

h = 12 m

In the demolition of an old building, a 1,300 kg wrecking ball hits the building at 1.07 m/s2. Calculate the amount of force at
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: F = 1391 N

Explanation:

The information given to you are:

Mass M = 1300 kg

Acceleration a = 1.07 m/s^2

The magnitude of the force striking the building will be

F = ma

Where

F = force

Substitute mass M and acceleration a into the formula

F = 1300 × 1.07

F = 1391 N

Therefore, the wrecking ball strikes the building with a force of 1391 N
