Explain why a scientific theory cannot became a scientific law

Physics
1 answer:
Maslowich3 years ago
3 0

A common misconception is that scientific theories are rudimentary ideas that will eventually graduate into scientific laws when enough data and evidence have been accumulated. A theory does not change into a scientific law with the accumulation of new or better evidence.

he "escape velocity from Earth (the speed required to escape Earth's gravity) is 2.5 x 10 miles per hour. What is this speed in
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer: 11.17\ \text{ m/s}

Explanation:

Given : The escape velocity : v=2.5\times10\text{ miles per hour}

We know that 1 mile = 1609 meters  (approx)

and 1 hour= 3600 seconds

To convert escape velocity 2.5 x 10 miles per hour into m/s , we need to multiply it by 1609.34 and divide it by 3600.

Thus, the escape velocity in m/s is given by :-

v=2.5\times10\times\dfrac{1609}{3600}\\\\=11.1736111111\approx11.17\text{ m/s}

Hence, the speed in m/s = 11.17

Thermal energy is transferred to a substance. Which change can occur?
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The temperature scale on which water freezes at 0 and boils at 100. Thermal energy that is transferred from one substance to another; moves from warmer to cooler objects. The transfer of heat by direct contact; occurs when energy is transferred by collisions between particles.

A tennis player standing 12.6 m from the net hits the ball at 3.18° above the horizontal. To clear the net, the ball must rise a
SOVA2 [1]
At the vertex, it's vertical velocity is 0, since it has stopped moving up and is about to come back down, and its displacement is 0.33m.
So we use v² = u² + 2as (neat trick I discovered just then for typing the squared sign: hold down alt and type 0178 on ur numpad wtih numlock on!!!) ANYWAY.......
We apply v² = u² + 2as in the y direction only. Ignore x direction.
IN Y DIRECTION:
v² = u² + 2as
0 = u² - 2gh
u = √(2gh) (Sub in values at the very end)
So that will be the velocity in the y direction only. But we're given the angle at which the ball is hit (3° to the horizontal). So to find the velocity (sum of the velocity in x and y direction on impact) we can use: sin 3° = opposite/hypotenuse = (velocity in y direction only) / (velocity)
So rearranging,
velocity = (velocity in y direction only) / sin 3°
= √(2gh)/sin 3°
= (√(2 x 9.8 x 0.33)) / sin 3°
= 49 m/s at 3° to the horizontal
