Answer:

A hypothesis is a permanent guess on an experiment you are planning on doing. A prediction is the act of predicting something so it’s like a guess but it’s not certain or can be proved.

Explanation:

Hopefully this helps you :)

pls mark brainlest ;)

Answer:

While a hypothesis is a guess that is predominantly used in science, a prediction is a guess that is mostly accepted out of science. A hypothesis is otherwise known as a good or intelligent guess. ... Moreover, hypotheses are testable guesses about the things that you'd expect to take place in your research study.

The space shuttle releases a satellite into a circular orbit 630 km above the Earth.

solniwko [45]

Answer:

7,539 m/s

Explanation:

Let's use this equation to find the gravitational acceleration of this space shuttle:

$\displaystyle g=\frac{GM}{r^2}$

We know that G is the gravitational constant: 6.67 * 10^(-11) Nm²/kg².

M is the mass of the planet, which is Earth in this case: 5.972 * 10^24 kg.

r is the distance from the center of Earth to the space shuttle: radius of Earth (6.3781 * 10^6 m) + distance above the Earth (630 km → 630,000 m).

Plug these values into the equation:

$\displaystyle g=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^-^1^1 \ Nm^2kg^-^2)(5.972\cdot 10^2^4 \ kg)}{[(6.3781\cdot 10^6 \ m)+(630000 \ m)]^2}$

Remove units to make the equation easier to read.

$\displaystyle g=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^-^1^1 )(5.972\cdot 10^2^4 )}{[(6.3781\cdot 10^6)+(630000 )]^2}$

Multiply the numerator out.

$\displaystyle g=\frac{(3.983324\cdot 10^1^4)}{[(6.3781\cdot 10^6)+(630000 )]^2}$

Add the terms in the denominator.

$\displaystyle g=\frac{(3.983324\cdot 10^1^4)}{[(7008100)]^2}$

Simplify this equation.

$\displaystyle g=8.11045189 \ \frac{m}{s^2}$

The acceleration due to gravity g = 8.11045189 m/s². Now we use the equation for acceleration for an object in circular motion which contains v and r.

$\displaystyle a = \frac{v^2}{r}$

a = g, v is the velocity that the space shuttle should be moving (what we are trying to solve for), and r is the radius we had in the previous equation when solving for g.

Plug these values into the equation and solve for v.

$\displaystyle 8.11045189 \ \frac{m}{s^2} = \frac{v^2}{7008100 \ m}$

Remove units to make the equation easier to read.

$\displaystyle 8.11045189 = \frac{v^2}{7008100}$

Multiply both sides by 7,008,100.

$56838857.89=v^2$

Take the square root of both sides.

$v=7539.154985$

The shuttle should be moving at a velocity of about 7,539 m/s when it is released into the circular orbit above Earth.

A 51.0-kg woman wearing high-heeled shoes is invited into a home in which the kitchen has vinyl floor covering. The heel on each

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Pressure = 9.94 x 10⁶ Pascals

Explanation:

given data

mass = 51 kg

radius = 0.400 cm

solution

we know Pressure that is express as here

Pressure = total force on an area ÷ the area of the area .................1

and

Force is the woman's weight so weight will be

Weight = mass × gravity .................2

put here value

Weight = 51 × 9.8 m/s²

Weight = 499.8 Newtons

and

Area of a circle of bottom of the heel = (π) × (radius)² ...................3

put here value

Area = (π) × (0.40 cm)²

Area = 0.502654 cm²

Area = 0.0000502654 m²

and

now we put value in equation 1 we get

Pressure = force ÷ area

Pressure = 499.8 ÷ 0.0000502654

Pressure = 9943221.381 N/m²

Pressure = 9.94 x 10⁶ Pascals

Which of the following would illustrate a quadratic relation between the dependent and independent variables when graphed?

Kitty [74]

Answer: option A. a graph of the area of a circle vs. its radius r (A = πr²).

Explanation:

A quadratic relation between the dependent and independent variables shows the independent variable raised to the power of 2.

This is it is a polynomial with general form ax² + bx + c, whewre a, b, and c, named coeficients, are constants.

The function is y = ax² + bx + c, where x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable.

As stated in the question, the area of a circle is given by A = πr².

In this case, A is the dependent variable and r is the independent variable.

π is assumed as the coefficient of the quadratic term, and the other coefficients are assumed 0, since there are no either terms on r or constants.

The equation a = 1/b is an inverse relation, not a quadratic relation.

The relation of distance vs. time for a car moving at constant speed is a linear relation of the kind v = u + st.

The mass of water vs. the volume of water in a drinking glass is a direct relation, mass = density × volume

Therefore, the only quadratic relation is shown by a graph of the area of a circle vs. its radius r.

A skier descends a mountain at an angle of 35.0º to the horizontal. If the mountain is 235 m long, what are the horizontal and v

neonofarm [45]

Total displacement along the length of mountain is given as
L = 235 m
angle of mountain with horizontal = 35 degree
now we will have horizontal displacement as
x = L cos35
x = 235 cos35 = 192.5 m
similarly for vertical displacement we can say
y = L sin35
y = 235 sin35 = 134.8 m
