Write a explanation explaining why red is a beautiful color is not a hypothesis
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

A hypothesis in science is a testable explanation that is yet to be tested via experimentation. It is a predictive statement or suggested solution to an observation. A hypothesis aims at finding a possible explanation/answer to a question, which is subject to testing. One important aspect of formulating a hypothesis is that it tends to connect the independent variable with the dependent/measurable variable.

The statement "RED IS A BEAUTIFUL COLOR" cannot be considered a hypothesis because it does not aim to answer a question that can undergo experimental testing. This statement can not be measured via experimentation. The statement is not a possible answer to a question but rather a personal opinion about something.

A person walks the path shown below. The total trip consists of four straight-line paths.
dmitriy555 [2]

At the end of the walk, the person's resultant displacement is 495.1 m at 63⁰ south of west.

<h3>What is resultant displacement?</h3>

The resultant displacement of an object is the change in position of the object. It can be described as the shortest distance connecting the final position of the object to the initial position of the object.

<h3>Net horizontal displacement </h3>

Path 1 = 40 m

Path 2 = 0 m

Path 3 = 110 m x cos(30) = 95.26 m

Path 4 = 180 m x cos(60) = 90 m

Total horizontal displacement, X = 40 m + 0 m + 95.26 m + 90 m = 225.26 m

<h3>Net vertical displacement </h3>

Path 1 = 0 m

Path 2 = 230 m

Path 3 = 110 m x sin(30) = 55 m

Path 4 = 180 m x sin(60) = 155.885 m

Total horizontal displacement, Y = 0 m + 230 m + 55 m + 155.885 m = 440.885 m

<h3>Resultant displacement</h3>

R = √(X² + Y²)

R = √(225.26² + 440.885²)

R = 495.1 m

<h3>Direction of the displacement</h3>

θ = arc tan (Y/X)

θ = arc tan (440.885/225.26)

θ =  63⁰

Thus, at the end of the walk, the person's resultant displacement is 495.1 m at 63⁰ south of west.
