Two companies make baseballs, and each claims that its ball goes farther. Which would be the best scientific evidence to decide

which ball goes farther?

Answer: They would have to be hitting each ball with the same force and measuring how far each goes

Explanation: Reviewing the test data that each company has reported on their product is not a bad idea, but each company has a very good reason to want their ball to perform better. Each company may have tested their own balls in the very specific circumstances in which their ball performs better than the competition's. Even if the tests are accurate, they are probably not objective and realistic.

For a scientific test, only one variable should be changed at a time. The variable for this test needs to be the kind of ball, so each ball should be hit with the same force, and the distance the ball travels should be measured. A machine should probably be used to hit the balls to make sure each one is hit with the same force.

I think the best scientific evidence to decide which ball goes farther is to test them.

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

165.529454

Explanation:

According to the Pythagorean Theorem for calculating the lengths of a right angle triangle's sides, a^2 + b+2 = c^2, where c is the longest side (and the side opposing the right angle). So in your case it would be 150*150 + 70*70 = 27400. And √ 27400 is your answer.

A wave of amplitude 20mm has intensity Ix. Another wave of the same frequency but of amplitude 5mm has an intensity Iy.
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

(C) 16

Explanation:

Given:

The amplitude of first wave (s₁) = 20 mm

The amplitude of second wave (s₂) = 5 mm

Intensity of first wave = Iₓ

Intensity of second wave = I_y

The intensity associated with a wave depends on the amplitude of the wave.

The intensity (I) is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude (s) of the wave and is expressed as:

I=ks^2\\Where\ k\to constant\ of\ proportionality

Now, the intensities of the two waves are given as:

I_x=ks_1^2=k(20)^2\\\\I_y=ks_2^2=k(5)^2

Dividing both the intensities, we get:

\frac{I_x}{I_y}=\frac{k(20)^2}{k(5)^2}\\\\\frac{I_x}{I_y}=\frac{400}{25}\\\\\frac{I_x}{I_y}=16

Therefore, the option (C) is correct.

In which process will the internal energy of the system NOT change? a. An adiabatic expansion of an ideal gas.
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

B. An isothermal compression of an ideal gas.

Explanation:

The internal energy of an ideal gas is just function of the temperature; it does not matter what other thermodynamic property changes, if the temperature does not change, the internal energy neither does. That is just for ideal gases; real gases behaviour is not like that. All of the other options bring with them an increase or decrease of the temperature:

For A, the temperature will decrease because the gas will do work as it expands, converting part of his internal energy to work.

For C, the temperature will increase, because given PV=nRT, if the volume increases (expansion) and the pressure is constant, the temperature must increase to satisfy the equation.

oee [108]

Answer:

Momentum after = 2400 kgm/s

Explanation:

Momentum after = momentum before

Momentum after = m1v1 +m2v2

Momentum after = (600)(4) + (400)(0)

Momentum after = 2400 kgm/s
