Which statement describes a scientific theory?

Physics
1 answer:
PSYCHO15rus [73]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A theory changes based on new observations and testing.

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a product of multiple trials and repeated experiments. It usually follows after carefully conducting and testing the validity of the hypothesis.

A scientific theory provides an explanation into how something behaves.

A law just states a finding will not explain it.

Most theories are tenable and can be improved upon when new observations and testing are carried out.

You have a horizontal grindstone (a disk) that is 86 kg, has a 0.33 m radius, is turning at 92 rpm (in the positive direction),
Rudiy27

Answer:

a) α = 0.338 rad / s²  b)   θ = 21.9 rev

Explanation:

a) To solve this exercise we will use Newton's second law for rotational movement, that is, torque

    τ = I α

    fr r = I α

Now we write the translational Newton equation in the radial direction

    N- F = 0

    N = F

The friction force equation is

    fr = μ N

    fr = μ F

The moment of inertia of a saying is

    I = ½ m r²

Let's replace in the torque equation

    (μ F) r = (½ m r²) α

    α = 2 μ F / (m r)

    α = 2 0.2 24 / (86 0.33)

    α = 0.338 rad / s²

b) let's use the relationship of rotational kinematics

    w² = w₀² - 2 α θ

    0 = w₀² - 2 α θ

    θ = w₀² / 2 α

Let's reduce the angular velocity

     w₀ = 92 rpm (2π rad / 1 rev) (1 min / 60s) = 9.634 rad / s

    θ = 9.634 2 / (2 0.338)

     θ = 137.3 rad

Let's reduce radians to revolutions

    θ = 137.3 rad (1 rev / 2π rad)

    θ = 21.9 rev

(d) Suppose you use a spring to launch a payload horizontally from the asteroid so that the payload ends up far from the asteroi
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

ks= 133.2 N/m

Explanation:

  • Assuming that we can neglect the gravitational potential energy of the mass, and that no other forces acting on the payload, total mechanical energy must be conserved.
  • This energy, at any time, is part elastic potential energy (stored in the spring) and part kinetic energy.
  • When the spring is initially compressed, the payload is at rest, so all energy is elastic potential.
  • Once the spring has returned to its natural state, all this elastic potential energy must have been turned into kinetic energy.
  • If the payload is launched horizontally, and no gravity is present,this means that its final speed will be horizontal only also, according to Newton's First Law.
  • So, we can write the following equation:

       \Delta U + \Delta K = 0 (1)

  • where ΔU = -1/2*k*(Δx)²  (2)
  • and ΔK = 1/2*m*v² (3)
  • Replacing in (2) and (3) by the givens, and simplifying, we can find the stiffness ks as follows:

       k_{s} =\frac{m*v^{2}}{\Delta x^{2}} = \frac{29 kg*(3m/s)^{2}}{(1.4m)^{2}} = 133.2 N/M (4)
