How would you respond to a person who argued that the Big Bang theory is incorrect because it is only a theory and theories have
Umnica [9.8K]

Well, you would reply that that's not what theories are. Theories explain the how and the why, laws explain the what. So, the Big Bang theory isn't "just a theory". It's a theory, it explains the how. (Also, if someone tells you it's anti-God or whatever, tell them the thoery was created by a Catholic scientist. True fact.) I hoped this helped!!! (You don't have the include who created the theory if this is for homework.)

On earth, two parts of a space probe weigh 14500 N and 4800 N. These parts are separated by a center-to-center distance of 18 m
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

F = 1.489*10^{-7}  N

Explanation: Weight of space probes on earth is given by:W= m*g

W= weight of the object( in N)

m= mass of the object (in kg)

g=acceleration due to gravity(9.81 \frac{m}{s^{2} })

Therefore,

m_{1} = \frac{14500}{9.81}

m_{1} = 1478.08  kg

Similarly,

m_{2} = \frac{4800}{9.81}

m_{2} = 489.29  kg

Now, considering these two parts as uniform spherical objects

Also, according to Superposition principle, gravitational net force experienced by an object is sum of all individual forces on the object.

Force between these two objects is given by:

F =  \frac{Gm_{1} m_{2}}{R^{2} }

G= gravitational constant (6.67 * 10^{-11} m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2})

m_{1} , m_{2}= masses of the object

R= distance between their centres (in m)(18 m)

Substituiting all these values into the above formula

F = 1.489*10^{-7}  N

This is the magnitude of force experienced by each part in the direction towards the other part, i.e the gravitational force is attractive in nature.

A uranium nucleus is traveling at 0.94 c in the positive direction relative to the laboratory when it suddenly splits into two p
Anettt [7]

Answer:

A   u = 0.36c      B u = 0.961c

Explanation:

In special relativity the transformation of velocities is carried out using the Lorentz equations, if the movement in the x direction remains

     u ’= (u-v) / (1- uv / c²)

Where u’ is the speed with respect to the mobile system, in this case the initial nucleus of uranium, u the speed with respect to the fixed system (the observer in the laboratory) and v the speed of the mobile system with respect to the laboratory

The data give is u ’= 0.43c and the initial core velocity v = 0.94c

Let's clear the speed with respect to the observer (u)

      u’ (1- u v / c²) = u -v

      u + u ’uv / c² = v - u’

      u (1 + u ’v / c²) = v - u’

      u = (v-u ’) / (1+ u’ v / c²)

Let's calculate

      u = (0.94 c - 0.43c) / (1+ 0.43c 0.94 c / c²)

      u = 0.51c / (1 + 0.4042)

      u = 0.36c

We repeat the calculation for the other piece

In this case u ’= - 0.35c

We calculate

       u = (0.94c + 0.35c) / (1 - 0.35c 0.94c / c²)

       u = 1.29c / (1- 0.329)

       u = 0.961c

1) A record is spinning at the rate of 25 rpm. If a ladybug is sitting 10 cm from the
Sladkaya [172]

<h2>distance = 523 cm</h2>

Explanation:

( a ) The rotational speed of the ladybug = 25 r.p.m = 25/60 r.p.s

= 5/12 rev/sec

( b ) The definition of frequency is the number of rotations per second .

Here the number of rotations per second is 5/12 . Thus frequency = 5/12 Hz

( c ) The tangential speed is v = angular velocity x radius of rotation

The angular velocity ω = 2π x n , where n is the number of rotations per second

Thus angular velocity = 2π x 5/12   = 5π/6 rad/sec

The linear velocity = angular velocity x distance from center of record

Thus tangential speed = 5π/6 x 10 = 25π/3 cm/sec

Angular displacement in 20 sec = ω x t = 5π/6 x 20 = 50π/3 rad

Linear displacement = angular displacement x distance from center of record

= 50π/3 x 10 = 500π/3 = 523 cm
