The most sensible answer is to:
A) Report his findings.

As a scientist it is his job to conduct experiments based on hypothesis or theories and from this experiments, give a detailed description, explanation, and conclusion about the experiment. This is the reason scientists and doctors write articles about their research, to make the public aware of such discoveries so that future researchers don't have to spend time valuable time and further studies can be based on such experimental report.

D) Would also be correct 'If' the scientist didn't find the expected answer to his hypothesis. This would cause the scientist to perform further experiments to find a reasonable justification and give a conclusion about it. If by the end of his studies, the research concludes that his hypothesis is incorrect, he must change his hypothesis based on scientific truth.

Both B) and C) are the least likely answers because:

B) is an immature action to take, showing the scientists lack of control. Throwing away experiment notes is not the wisest move to take as these notes not only provide valuable information about the experiment but can actually prove to be important data, that if analysed well it could show the scientist his mistake/error, a new unobseved pattern or give him a new hypothesis or idea. Thus proving to be very valuable.

C) As a scientist, it is his right to be a very genuine about his work as he is given a credibility by science. Lie is one of the greatest sin to a scientist as it causes his credibility to collapse and even lose his title as a scientist.

A student places a set of books with a force of 25 n on a lab table with a force of 150 n. What is the normal force pushing upwa
abruzzese [7]

The normal force acting on the legs of the table is 175 N

The weight of the books is the force exerted by the books on the table, and it is given as:

W =25N

The force exerted by the table is given as:

F = 150N

The parameters above imply that:

  • The table and the books are stationary,
  • The force exerted by both act in the same downward direction.

So, the normal force acting on the legs of the table is calculated as follows:

F_N =F +W

Substitute known values

F_N = 150N + 25N

F_N = 175N

Hence, the normal force acting on the legs of the table is 175 N
