If two different theories describe experimental observations equally well, can one be said to be more valid than the other (assu

ming both use accepted rules of logic)?
Physics

Andreas93 [3]2 years ago

Answer:

No

Explanation:

In such situations we cannot determine which one is more valid as both serves the purpose well.

Two theories are carried out in different environment and circumstance keeping different parameters and one can opt for any number of ways to carry out that experiment but what matter at the end is the accuracy they bring.

Each of the theory is a new discovery and follows all the possible logical rules hence it is not possible to decide which one is more valid.

57. A red ball (m= 10 kg) is moving at 3 m/s. A green ball (m = 8 kg) is moving at 3.5 m/s. Which ball has more
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

the green ball has 4J more energy

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is given by the formula

K = 0.5 m v^2

the kinetic energy of the red ball:

K(red) = 0.5*10*3^2= 45J

of the green ball:

K(green)=0.5*8*3.5^2 = 49J

therefore the green ball has more energy by 4 Joules

A road that rises 1 ft for every 100 ft traveled
Lana71 [14]

Explanation:

6% grade

=> Rises 6 feet for every 100 feet traveled

This would mean that tanx = 6/100.

=> x = tan^-1(6/100) = 3.4°. (1d.p.)

Hence the road is inclined at an angle of 3.4° above the horizontal.

A hula hoop is rolling along the ground with a translational speed of 26 ft/s. It rolls up a hill that is 16 ft high. Determine
nikklg [1K]

Answer:12.8 ft/s

Explanation:

Given

Speed of hoop v=26\ ft/s

height of top h=16\ ft

Initial energy at bottom is

E_b=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}I\omega ^2

Where m=mass of hoop

I=moment of inertia of hoop

\omega=angular velocity

for pure rolling v=\omega R

I=mR^2

E_b=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}mR^2\times (\frac{v}{R})^2

E_b=mv^2=m(26)^2=676m

Energy required to reach at top

E_T=mgh=m\times 32.2\times 16

E_T=512.2m

Thus 512.2 m is converted energy is spent to raise the potential energy of hoop and remaining is in the form of kinetic and rotational energy

\Delta E=676m-512.2m=163.8m

Therefore

163.8 m=mv^2

v=\sqrt{163.8}

v=12.798\approx 12.8\ ft/s

Your heart pumps 80 g of blood with each beat. The blood starts from rest and reaches a speed of 0.60 m/s in the aorta. If each
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

d. 0.3 N

Explanation:

Force: This is defined as the product of mass of a body and its acceleration.

The S.I unit of Force is Newton (N).

Mathematically Force can be represented as,

F = ma .................. Equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

also

a = (v-u)/t............... Equation 2

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Given: v = 0.60 m/s, u = 0 m/s ( From rest), t= 0.16 s.

Substitute into equation 2

a = (0.60-0)/0.16

a = 3.75 m/s²

Also given: m = 80 g = 0.08 kg.

Substitute into equation 1,

F = 0.08(3.75)

F = 0.3 N.

Hence he average force = 0.3 N

The right option is d. 0.3 N
