Theory is basically just an idea that's stated to where it may not be a fact yet.

Answer:

Theories are well-founded explanations for describing events that occur in nature. They involve thoroughly tested hypotheses, facts and laws.

A theory may sound like a definitive explanation, but it may be overturned over the years.

In science, Fact typically refers to an observation, measurement, or other form of evidence that may repeat the same under different circumstances. However, scientists also use the term to refer to a scientific explanation that has been so tested and confirmed that there is often by far no convincing reason to continue testing or looking at additional examples.

Like all scientific theories, the theory of the Big Bang is subject to refinement as new areas of science emerge or new technologies emerge that allow observations and experiments previously impossible.

Why are different constellations<br> of stars seen during different<br> seasons?
slamgirl [31]
Actually, they're not.  There's a group of stars and constellations arranged
around the pole of the sky that's visible at any time of any dark, clear night,
all year around.  And any star or constellation in the rest of the sky is visible
for roughly 11 out of every 12 months ... at SOME time of the night. 

Constellations appear to change drastically from one season to the next,
and even from one month to the next, only if you do your stargazing around
the same time every night.

Why does the night sky change at various times of the year ?  Here's how to
think about it:

The Earth spins once a day. You spin along with the Earth, and your clock is
built to follow the sun . "Noon" is the time when the sun is directly over your
head, and "Midnight" is the time when the sun is directly beneath your feet.

Let's say that you go out and look at the stars tonight at midnight, when you're
facing directly away from the sun.

In 6 months from now, when you and the Earth are halfway around on the other
side of the sun, where are those same stars ?  Now they're straight in the
direction of the sun.  So they're directly overhead at Noon, not at Midnight.

THAT's why stars and constellations appear to be in a different part of the sky,
at the same time of night on different dates.

Ted William drops a ball from 14.5 meter to a desk that is 1.9 meters tall. What is the final speed of the ball right before it
makkiz [27]

Answer:

15.7m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we use the right motion equation.

 Here, we have been given the height through which the ball drops;

 Height of drop = 14.5m - 1.9m  = 12.6m

The right motion equation is;

      V²  = U² + 2gh

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity  = 0

g is the acceleration due to gravity  = 9.8m/s²

h is the height

  Now insert the parameters and solve;

       V² = 0² + 2 x 9.8 x 12.6

      V²  = 246.96

       V = √246.96  = 15.7m/s
