Which phrase best describes sir isaac newton's contributions to modern science and therefore to the industrial revolution?

1 answer:

8 0

Can you please give the phrases?

But, I'll help what I can.

First, he was the first to discover gravity. He was not bonked by the head by an apple, rather he watched an apple fall from a tree before he decided to explore gravity further.

He was also the first scientist to be knighted, which is a great honor, as you can expect.

Newton also developed The Three Laws of Motion. They are extremely important to physics and are considered some of the foundation for physics today.

He also discovered calculus, which is complex math that is very helpful to scientists today.

He also discovered the color spectrum using a glass prism, a dark room and window shade with a hole in it. He was able to project the color spectrum onto a piece of paper.

Those are the few I can think of now, but hope it helps!

The 1.5kg ball is launched straight upward with an initial velocity of 7m/s. What is the maximum height it will reach?

Temka [501]

Answer:

h = 2.5 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a ball, m = 1.5 kg

Initial velocity of the ball, u = 7 m/s

We need to find the maximum height reached by the ball. Let it is be h. Using the conservation of energy to find it such that,

$mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2\\\\h=\dfrac{u^2}{2g}$

Put all the values,

$h=\dfrac{7^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\\=2.5\ m$

So, it will reach to a height of 2.5 m.

According to Wien's Law, how many times hotter is an object whose blackbody emission spectrum peaks in the blue, at a wave lengt

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:1.55 times

Explanation:

Given

First wavelength $(\lambda _1)=450 nm$

Second wavelength $(\lambda _2)=700 nm$

According wien's diplacement law

$\lambda T=constant$

where $\lambda =wavelength$

T=Temperature

Let $T_1 and T_2$ be the temperatures corresponding to $\lambda _1 & \lambda _2$ respectively.

$\lambda _1\times T_1=\lambda _2\times T_2$

$\frac{T_1}{T_2}=\frac{\lambda _2}{\lambda _1}$

$\frac{T_1}{T_2}=\frac{700}{450}=1.55$

Thus object with $\lambda 450 nm$ is 1.55 times hotter than object with wavelength $\lambda =700 nm$

A planet in elliptical orbit around a star moves from the point in its orbit furthest from the star (A) to the closest point (P)

Virty [35]

Answer:

Zero work done,since the body isn't acting against or by gravity.

Explanation:

Gravitational force is usually considered as work done against gravity (-ve) and work by gravity ( +ve ) and also When work isn't done by or against gravity work done in this case is zero.

Gravitational force can be define as that force that attracts a body to any other phyical body or system that have mass.

The planet been considered as our system in this case is assumed to have mass, and ought to demonstrate such properties associated with gravitational force in such system. Such properties include the return of every object been thrown up as a result of gravity acting downwards. The orbiting nature of object along an elliptical part when gravitational force isn't acting on the body and it is assumed to be zero.

You’ve made the hypothesis that the stepper the slope , the faster a ball will be rolling when it reaches the bottom .

BigorU [14]

Answer:

B) how steep the slope is

Explanation:

Because you have to know how is the influence of the steep of the slope in the time that a ball reaches the bottom. The steep of the slope is the variable that you would have to change in an experiment.

I hope this is useful for you

Ashkon throws a basketball across the court to his teammate. The ball has 57 J of potential energy and 61 J of kinetic energy. W

Gwar [14]

The total mechanical energy of the ball is the sum of its potential energy U and its kinetic energy K, therefore:
$E=U+K=57 J+61 J=118 J$
so, the total mechanical energy of the basketball is 118 J.
