A hypothesis is a tentative and testable explanation, based on observation(s). A hypothesis can be supported or refuted through experimentation or more observation. A hypothesis can be disproven, but not proven to be true.

Answer:

A scientific theory is the in-depth explanation of a natural phenomenon occurring in nature. A theory is formed after the scientific method is followed which supports the theory. A good scientific theory is formed after a number of ideas are linked, tested and proved which are not just guesses.

Since a scientific theory is a well-substantiated and deeply explained idea which overcomes the limited explanation of a proposed hypothesis and unity of many ideas, hence, a theory can be also be known as a well-explained hypothesis.

A good example of scientific theory repeated many times is the "theory of relativity" proposed by Albert Einstein in 1915 which was tested and repeated in 1919 at the time of solar eclipse which was later repeated again by many scientists.

What magnification would be obtained if an eyepiece with a focal length of 0.38 m was placed on telescope?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because the telescope's focal length was not provided. The formula to be used here is

Magnification = telescope's focal length/eyepiece's focal length

The eyepiece's focal length was provided in the question as 0.38 m.

NOTE: Magnification can be described as the power of an instrument (in this case telescope) to enlarge an object. It has no unit and thus the two focal lengths mentioned in the formula above must be in the same unit (preferably meters since one of them is in meters already).

A 40 cm wire with a radius of 3 cm is oriented along the y axis and carries a current of 2 A. What is the magnitude of the magne
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

a) B = 1.99 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla

b) B = 0.88 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla

Explanation:

According to Biot - Savart Law, the magnetic field due to a currnt carrying straight wire is given as:

B = μ₀ I L/4πr²

where,

μ₀ = permebility of free space = 1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹

I = current = 2 A

L = Length of wire = 40 cm = 0.4 m

a)

r = radius of magnetic field = 2 cm = 0.02 m

Therefore,

B = (1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹)(2 A)(0.4 m)/4π(0.02 m)²

<u>B = 1.99 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla</u>

<u></u>

b)

r = radius of magnetic field = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Therefore,

B = (1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹)(2 A)(0.4 m)/4π(0.03 m)²

<u>B = 0.88 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla</u>

A lens collects light and focuses it into a small spot. This increases the ________ of the light wave.A lens collects light and
Anika [276]

Answer:

intensity.

Explanation:

when the light collected by the lens is focused into a small spot it tends to increase the intensity of the light.

as different path of light with different intensity combines from passing through the lens it tends to make the light path and intensity coherent and after being coherent there intensity increases.
