Not necessarily, it just means that the Scientific theory was not complete and needs additional information, research, and ideas.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Scientific theories can change over time as new information is discovered. If a scientific theory change this doesn't mean that it was not a good theory, to begin with. What means is that science is permanently researching for new and better ways to do things or to understand natural phenomena.

With discoveries, science can apply new methods of study and get relevant and new information that later could be changed if something new is discovered. That is a good part of science. that is always researching to innovate.

In an RC circuit, what fraction of the final energy is stored in an initially uncharged capacitor after it has been charging for
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The  fraction fraction of the final energy is stored in an initially uncharged capacitor after it has been charging for 3.0 time constants is  

      k  = 0.903

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The time  constant  \tau  =  3

The potential across the capacitor can be mathematically represented as

     V  =  V_o  (1 -  e^{- \tau})

Where V_o is the voltage of the capacitor when it is fully charged

    So   at  \tau  =  3

     V  =  V_o  (1 -  e^{- 3})

     V  =  0.950213 V_o

   Generally energy stored in a capacitor is mathematically represented as

             E = \frac{1}{2 } * C  * V ^2

In this equation the energy stored is directly proportional to the the square of the potential across the capacitor

Now  since capacitance is  constant  at  \tau  =  3

        The  energy stored can be evaluated at as

         V^2 =  (0.950213 V_o )^2

       V^2 =  0.903  V_o ^2

Hence the fraction of the energy stored in an initially uncharged capacitor is  

      k  = 0.903

You make the following measurements of an object 42kg and 22m3 what would the objects density be
miv72 [106K]
The density of the object is approximately 1.91 kg per m³.

42 kg is a measure of mass, and 22 m³ is a measure of volume. Knowing this, you can use the relationship $$density = mass / volume$$ to solve for the object's density.

42 kg \div 22 m³ \approx 1.91 kg per m³.
