What are scientific theories?

Physics
1 answer:
Goryan [66]2 years ago
8 0

A scientific theory is an explanation of an aspect of the natural world that can be repeatedly tested and verified in accordance with the scientific method, using accepted protocols of observation, measurement, and evaluation of results. Where possible, theories are tested under controlled conditions in an experiment.

Goryan [66]

Answer:

d- Earth revolves around the sun.

Explanation:

Earth rotation can be defined as the amount of time taken by planet earth to complete its spinning movement on its axis.

This ultimately implies that, the rotation of earth refers to the time taken by earth to rotate once on its axis. One spinning movement of the earth on its axis takes approximately 24 hours to complete with respect to the sun.

On the other hand, earth revolution can be defined as a complete trip along a path around the sun. This path is known as an orbit and it typically takes the Earth 365¼ days to complete it's journey around the Sun.

When a constellation (stars) changes its position in the sky, at the same time of the evening and over a period of several weeks; it ultimately implies or is an evidence that Earth revolves around the sun.

Difference between displacement and vector quantity
daser333 [38]

The only 'difference' is that they are different categories.

It's like asking "What's the difference between Susie and girl ?"

Or "What's the difference between Cadillac and car ?"

Displacement <em>IS</em> a vector quantity.

A proton initially moves left to right along the x-axis at a speed of 2.00 x 103 m/s. It moves into an uniform electric field, w
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

E = 1.04*10⁻¹ N/C

Explanation:

Assuming no other forces acting on the proton than the electric field, as this is uniform, we can calculate the acceleration of the proton, with the following kinematic equation:

vf^{2} -vo^{2} = 2*a*x

As the proton is coming at rest after travelling 0.200 m to the right,  vf = 0, and x = 0.200 m.

Replacing this values in the equation above, we can solve for a, as follows:

a = \frac{vo^{2}*mp}{2*x} = \frac{(2.00e3m/s)^{2}}{2*0.2m} = 1e7 m/s2

According to Newton´s 2nd Law, and applying the definition of an electric field, we can say the following:

F = mp*a = q*E

For a proton, we have the following values:

mp = 1.67*10⁻²⁷ kg

q = e = 1.6*10⁻¹⁹ C

So, we can solve for E (in magnitude) , as follows:

E = \frac{mp*a}{e} =\frac{1.67e-27kg*1e7m/s2}{1.6e-19C} = 1.04e-1 N/C

⇒ E = 1.04*10⁻¹ N/C
