Answer: option A: <u>What is the proper number of children to have in today's family?</u>

A scientific investigation includes a scientific method to approach a problem. There is a systematic approach is used to address a problem. It generally includes five steps: first a problem needs to be identified. Thereafter, a background research is important to form a hypothesis. Fourthly, an experiment, observation or measurements are done in order to draw conclusions at last.

From the given questions, option A is a question which cannot be scientifically investigated. This is because, it varies from individual to society to the economy of a state. The conclusion would not be generalized solution.

option B.Will equal sizes of Styrofoam and wood have the same mass? can be scientifically investigated. The given quantities can be measured and tested.

C. Does adding salt to water raise its boiling point? This can be scientifically tested

D. Does lack of sunlight affect plant growth? This can also be scientifically measured.

In a shuffleboard game, the puck slides a total of 12 m before coming to rest. If the coefficient ofkinetic friction between the

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

puck decelerates due to the kinetic frictional force μk mg

Explanation:

given data

total distance = 12 m

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.28

solution

we will apply equation of motion that is

v² - u² = 2 × a × s ................1

we know acceleration will be

a = $\frac{-u^2}{2\times S}$

Then we have

Force = mass × acceleration .................2

m × $\frac{-u^2}{2\times S}$ = -μk mg

The puck decelerates due to the kinetic frictional force μk mg

and frictional force is negative as it opposes the motion.

so we get initial velocity of the puck which is strike.

How does speed measure

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the metre per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour. For air and marine travel the knot is commonly used.

Water has a high heat capacity. What does this term mean? a) Water is relatively resistant to an increase in temperature. b) Wat

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:a) Water is relatively resistant to an increase in temperature

Explanation:

Water has relatively high heat capacity i.e. it requires high amount of heat to raise a little increase in temperature.

Heat capacity is defined as ability of molecule to absorb heat . Mathematically heat capacity is defined as

$C=\frac{Q}{\Delta T}$
