New technology is important to the development of theories because it

1 answer:

6 0

Different theories in science rely on the current available knowledge that has been obtained through a certain way of data collection/that has used certain technology to obtain such data. With new technology, new datasets can be obtained that perhaps are not in line with previous theories. By improving technology, new datasets can be obtained and through this theories can be advanced, improved and developed.

A crate falls from an airplane flying horizontally at an altitude of 2,000 m.

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

20.2 seconds

Explanation:

The airplane (and therefore the crate) initially has no vertical velocity, so v₀ = 0 m/s.

The crate is in free fall, so a = -9.8 m/s².

The crate falls downward, so Δx = -2000 m.

Find: t, the time it takes for the crate to land.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

-2000 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 20.2 s

It takes 20.2 seconds for the crate to land.

If 100 J of electrical energy enter the bulb and 5 J of light energy leave the bulb, how many joules of heat energy leave the bu

Novay_Z [31]

As per energy conservation we know that

Energy enter into the bulb = Light energy + Thermal energy

so now we have

energy enter into the bulb = 100 J

Light energy = 5 J

now from above equation we have

$100 = 5 + heat$

$Heat = (100 - 5) J$

$Heat = 95 J$

You go to the hardware store to buy a new 50 ft garden hose. You find you can choose between hoses of ½ inch and 5/8 inch inner

omeli [17]

To solve this problem it is necessary to consider two concepts. The first of these is the flow rate that can be defined as the volumetric quantity that a channel travels in a given time. The flow rate can also be calculated from the Area and speed, that is,

Q = V*A

Where,

A= Cross-sectional Area

V = Velocity

The second concept related to the calculation of this problem is continuity, which is defined as the proportion that exists between the input channel and the output channel. It is understood as well as the geometric section of entry and exit, defined as,

$Q_1 = Q_2$

$V_1A_1=V_2A_2$

Our values are given as,

$A_1=\frac{1}{2}^2*\pi=0.785 in^2$

$A_2=\frac{5}{8}^2*\pi=1.227 in^2$

Re-arrange the equation to find the first ratio of rates we have:

$\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{A_2}{A_1}$

$\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{1.227}{0.785}$

$\frac{V_1}{V_2}=1.56$

The second ratio of rates is

$\frac{V2}{V1}=\frac{A_1}{A2}$

$\frac{V2}{V1}=\frac{0.785}{1.227}$

$\frac{V2}{V1}=0.640$

5. No matter what month and date your birthday is on, NASA says it has a significant picture from

padilas [110]

Answer:

The Hubble space telescope.

Explanation:

Hubble is a telescope that observers the sky 24/7 non-stop, which means that for every day of the year it would have made a significant discovery, which of course includes your birthday. Furthermore, you can actually go to NASA website and find out what discovery was made on your birthday! This shows both the vastness of the universe <em>(it really has to be huge for a telescope to have a discovery for each day of the year!) </em> and the ceaseless work of the telescope!

The difference between the speed of sound n air at 0°C and the speed of sound in air at 20°c is that... A. Cooler air molecules

sergejj [24]

Heat, like sound, is kinetic energy. Molecules at higher temperatures heave more energy, thus they can vibrate faster. Since the molecules vibrate faster, sound waves can travel more quickly.

So the answer is A.
