Can the validity of a model be limited, or must it be universally valid? How does this compare to the required validity of a the

Vilka [71]3 years ago

The model is based on hypothesis  to get an initial idea for analyzing a complex problem. Hence, the validity of a model is limited and may not be valid universally. On the other hand, theories and laws are confirmed hypothesis which are universally valid. These are formulated after repeated testings. theories are more explanatory.

Sawyer launches his 180 kg raft on the Mississippi River by pushing on it with a force of 75N. How long must Sawyer push on the
Daniel [21]

Answer: 4.8 s

Explanation:

We have the following data:

m=180 kg the mass of the raft

F=75 N the force applied by Sawyer

V=2 m/s the raft's final speed

V_{o}=0 m/s the raft's initial speed (assuming it starts from rest)

We have to find the time t

Well, according to Newton's second law of motion we have:

F=m.a (1)

Where a is the acceleration, which can be expressed as:

a=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}=\frac{V-V_{o}}{t-t_{o}} (2)

Substituting (2) in (1):

F=m\frac{V-V_{o}}{t-t_{o}} (3)

Where t_{o}=0

Isolating t from (3):

t=\frac{m(V-V_{o})}{F} (4)

t=\frac{180 kg(2 m/s-0 m/s)}{75 N}

Finally:

t=4.8 s

How much force is required to move a electron through an electric field with strength of 1.375 x 10^19 N/C?
Luda [366]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force required to move the electron through the given field is 2.203 N

Explanation:

Given;

The field strength of the electron, E = 1.375  x 10¹⁹ N/C

charge of electron, q = 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

The magnitude of the force required to move the electron through the given field is calculated as follows;

F = Eq

F = (1.375  x 10¹⁹ N/C) (1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)

F = 2.203 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the force required to move the electron through the given field is 2.203 N

Two identical positive charges are placed near each other. At the point halfway between the two chargesTwo identical positive ch
Nitella [24]

Answer:The electric field is zero and the potential is positive.

Explanation:

Two identical positive charges are separated by a certain distance and midway between charges two identical positive charges are placed near each other.

So the Electric field at midway is zero because the electric field due to both charges add up to give zero electric field.(because they point in opposite direction)

Potential is scalar quantity and charges are positive so they add up to give potential.
