Let's start with an example from history. Listed below are a series of claims regarding United States President John F. Kennedy

(1917-1963). Classify each statement according to whether or not it is falsifiable.

Answer:

Note that both of the falsifiable claims in this example happen to be true. The claim about Kennedy being the 35th President is falsifiable because it can be checked against historical records. The claim that Kennedy died from a bullet in his brain is falsifiable because it could have been shown false by the medical examiner. The remaining claims are not falsifiable: Statements that call on any type of supernatural being are by definition out of the realm of science. Similarly, a claim of something being "undetectable" could not be falsified, and a claim about what Kennedy would have done if he had lived is a conjecture that cannot be disproven.

A football is kicked from the ground with a velocity of 38m/s at an angle of 40 degrees and eventually lands at the same height.
Anastasy [175]

Initially, the velocity vector is \langle 38cos(40^{\circ}),38sin(40^{\circ}) \rangle=\langle 29.110, 24.426 \rangle. At the same height, the x-value of the vector will be the same, and the y-value will be opposite (assuming no air resistance). Assuming perfect reflection off the ground, the velocity vector is the same. After 0.2 seconds at 9.8 seconds, the y-value has decreased by 4.9(0.2)^2, so the velocity is \langle 29.110, 24.426-0.196 \rangle = \langle 29.110, 24.23 \rangle.

Converting back to direction and magnitude, we get \langle r,\theta \rangle=\langle \sqrt{29.11^2+24.23^2},tan^{-1}(\frac{29.11}{24.23}) \rangle = \langle 37.87,50.2^{\circ}\rangle

If there is a difference in air pressure between two locations, what happens?
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

High in the atmosphere, air pressure decreases. ... A low pressure system has lower pressure at its center than the areas around it. Winds blow towards the low pressure, and the air rises in the atmosphere where they meet. As the air rises, the water vapor within it condenses, forming clouds and often precipitation.
