True or false Scientific endeavor is driven by both simple curiosity as well as societal demands

Physics
1 answer:
ICE Princess25 [194]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

its true that Scientific endeavor is driven by both simple curiosity as well as societal demands.

Explanation:

When a scientist has a curiosity about something he carried out a research. and when their is a demand of something in society that time scientific research is carried out. Therefore its true that a scientific endeavor is driven by  simple curiosity or societal demand.

For example

in society, there is demand of a medicine which can completely kill the cancer  and a scientist has curiosity to know how to kill cancer cell. In this way a scientific endeavor for cancer medicine can be carried out by both simple curiosity as well as societal demands.

A very powerful vacuum cleaner which has a hose of circular cross section can lift a brick of mass 12 kg when the hose is placed
valkas [14]

Answer:

A). 1.9 cm

Explanation:

m = Mass of brick = 12 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

r = Radius of hose

A = Area = \pi r^2

F = Force = mg

Let us assume that the pressure required to lift the brick would be atmospheric pressure

P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{F}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{F}{\pi P}}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{12\times 9.81}{\pi\times 101325}}\\\Rightarrow r=0.01923\ m=1.9\ cm

The radius of the hose should be 1.9 cm

Consider a roller coaster begins 15m above the ground. If the cart has a mass of 75kg, what is the velocity of the cart halfway
SashulF [63]

Answer:

v = 12.12 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the cart, m = 75 kg

The roller coaster begins 15 m above the ground.

We need to find the velocity of the cart halfway to the ground. Let the velocity be v. Using the conservation of energy at this position, h = 15/2 = 7.5 m

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 7.5} \\\\v=12.12\ m/s

So, the velocity of the cart is 12.12 m/s.

  • Frequency ( f ) : The number of complete waves , set up in a medium in one second is called frequency of the wave. The SI unit of frequency is Hertz ( Hz ). For example : if a sound wave completes 15 compressions and 15 rarefactions in one second , it's frequency is 15 Hz.

  • Wavelength ( λ ) : The distance between two consecutive troughs or crests in a transverse wave or the distance between two consecutive compressions or rarefactions in a longitudinal wave us called wavelength. It is the distance travelled by a wave in a time equal to it's time period. It's SI unit is metre ( m ).

  • Wave velocity ( v ) : The velocity with which a wave propagates in a medium is called wave velocity. It's SI unit is m/s.

I'd like you to explain this to me, I don't have a clue on how to do this
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Spanish flu pandemic of 1918, the deadliest in history, infected an estimated 500 million people worldwide about one-third of the planet’s population and killed an estimated 20 million to 50 million victims, including some 675,000 Americans. The 1918 flu was first observed in Europe, the United States and parts of Asia before swiftly spreading around the world. At the time, there were no effective drugs or vaccines to treat this killer flu strain. Citizens were ordered to wear masks, schools, theaters and businesses were shuttered and bodies piled up in makeshift morgues.

Does this sound familiar?

Its the same thing but with a different name called the Corona virus pandemic the same thing happened in 1918 and now it is happening again in 2020 , but in in 2020 there are far less people infected by the Corona virus as compared to the Spanish flu the numbers approximate around 70 million infected and deaths are around 2 million.

The rapid spread of Spanish flu in the fall of 1918 was at least partially to blame on public health officials unwilling to impose quarantines during wartime. The public health response to the crisis in the United States was further hampered by a severe nursing shortage as thousands of nurses had been deployed to military camps and the front lines. But one of the chief reasons that the Spanish flu claimed so many lives in 1918 was that science simply didn’t have the tools to develop a vaccine for the virus. Microscopes couldn’t even see something as incredibly small as a virus until the 1930s.

That is why the Spanish Flu claimed so many lives in 1918 and the Corona Virus didn't claim that many.

The Corona Virus patients with respect to Spanish Flu patients exponentially decreased because in 2020 we had the specific tools to fight the virus and since mankind was aware when the world engrossed into the pandemic 100 years before the new the risks that it could impose on the world , People started to Quarantine themselves, more nurses/doctors are available rather than in the era of the 19th century.

Mathematically we would say that the exponential growth would be:

y=ab^x

This is an exponential function, which means as you increase  x , y  increases exponentially, and where a is the initial value and b is the growth factor.

For example:

There are 100,000 cases of Coronavirus when the virus outbroke. If the number of cases doubles every week then how many cases would be there in 10 weeks?

So the solution would be

y=ab^x\\y=100000(2)^{10}\\y=102400000

Which means people infected with the virus would be approximate 102.5 million. But since this kind of pandemic already broke out in 1918 called the Spanish flu mankind was wise and controlled its growth factor (b) by Quarantining people , shutting down businesses, schools  and implying them to work from home , closing off cafeteria's restaurants for dine in purposes and just allowing take away to reduce human contact, and since 1918 we have more doctors and nurses to treat the infected in 2020 we reduced the outbreak to 70 million in about 10 months other wise it could have been 100 million in just 2.5 months as we can see.

So guys stay indoors just go out if you REALLY need something, avoid meeting others , wear masks and gloves :)

1. why is<br> experimentation so important to science
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: to provide evidence to a theory

Explanation: Experimentation allows for multiple trials to provide evidence to a scientific theory. Without experimentation there would be no data to back up your hypothesis.
