Answer:

A) scientific law

Explanation:

Scientific laws are laws that are well oberved and proved all around the globe with different measures and different experiments this is because scientific laws they can predict a wide variation of physical phenomenoms, in this case since gravity is observable and can be proved with experiments that are consistent all around the globe, is a scientific law.

A.  Scientific Law.  The mathematics surrounding the acceleration due to gravity is a law.  It is calculated from the universal law of gravity.  However, the explanation of the idea of gravity is a theory.  This falls back to the idea that science is about disproving ideas that we currently believe, rather than proving ideas are correct.  Unless we can disprove an idea, we have to accept the possibility that it is true; the more trials we have of being unable to disprove something, the more accepted it will be.  Yet, no idea can be without doubt and certainty be accepted for what it is.  So, to sum it up, scientific laws are factual descriptions (by formula or word) of phenomenon which always occur given specific conditions.  On the other hand, scientific theories are explanations of the causes underlying these phenomena, the explanation formulated in such a way that they can be disproven.

A parallel-plate capacitor is constructed of two square plates, size L×L, separated by distance d. The plates are given charge ±
gladu [14]

Answer:

E(final)/E(initial)=2

Explanation:

Applying the law of gauss to two parallel plates with  charge density equal σ:

E=\sigma/\epsilon_{o}=Q/(L^{2}*\epsilon_{o})\\

So, if the charge is doubled the Electric field is doubled too

E(final)/E(initial)=2

a certain motor can produce a force of 70 n on a model plane. if the required acceleration is 30 m/s^2 then what is the maximum
8_murik_8 [283]
This is simply F=ma so 70N/30m/s^2 will give you the max mass which would be in kg, and the mass would be 2.333333kg a very light plane I might say
