Which explanation is based on empirical evidence? Ancient text reveals that the universe is about 6000 years old

Answer:

Empirical evidence is evidence that is verified by observation or experience, rather than logic or theory.

Then an explanation is based in on empirical evidence is an explanation that uses a fact that was seen or experienced.

The case here:

"Ancient text reveals that the universe is about 6000 years old"

Is not empirical, because there is no observation or experience here, this is only a book that says the opinion of who wrote it.

An example of an empirical explanation would be:

"The universe is at least X years old because we can see remanents that are X years old"

A heat engine is designed to do work. This is possible only if certain relationships between the heats and temperatures at the i
ryzh [129]

Answer: option D

Explanation: let us first define an heat engine.

An heat engine is that device that converts partly heat energy into mechanical energy.

Inside the heat engine is a substance that undergoes compression and expansion, intake and outtake of heat, this is known as a working substance.

For heat engines to work perfectly, the working substance has to take a substantial large amount of heat energy from a source, this source is the hot reservoir, the amount of heat energy given out by this reservoir is Qh and the temperature at this region is Th. The heat from the hot reservoir is accepted by the working substances and sent to a region that will discard it out, this region is known as the cold reservoir and the heat energy at this point is Qc and temperature is Tc.

Judging by the direction of heat flow, heat energy moves from hot reservoir to the cold reservoir for the heat engine to work perfectly fine, hence Qh must be greater than Qc and Th must be greater than Tc.

Hence Qh>Qc and Th>Tc

. Two identical blocks, each of mass M, are connected by a massless string over a pulley of radius R and moment of inertia I. Th
Dima020 [189]

The angular acceleration of a pulley is described under the equation,

\theta = (0.5) \alpha t^2

So things clearing,

\alpha = \frac{ 2\theta}{t^2}

b) For point B it is necessary to make a sum of Forces,

\sum F=0

In this way,

Mg - T_1 = Ma

T_1 = Mg - Ma (1)

For block 2, we have the following relationship,

T_2 = Ma (2)

So,

T_1 - T_2 = I \frac{a}{R} (3)

Substituting (1) and (2) in (3)

Mg - Ma - Ma = I \frac{a}{R}

So,

a = \frac{2\theta R}{t^2}

<em>**Note that</em> \alpha R = a

c) For this point we need to use (1)

T1 = Mg - Ma = Mg - \frac{M^2\theta R}{t^2}

using (2)

RT_2=RT_1-I\alpha

T_2= \frac{RM(g-\frac{2\theta R}{t^2})-I\frac{2\theta}{t^2}}{R}

T_2=\frac{RMgt^2-2R^2M\theta-2t\theta}{Rt^2}
