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.

Heather and Jerry are standing on a bridge 60 m above a river Heather throws a rock straight down with a speed of 14 m/s. Jerry,
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Time elapsed   = 2.856

SECOND ROCK HAS FASTER SPEED

Explanation:

This can be achieved in 2 ways, and it is clear from the careful study that the travel time is attributed to the time required to cross the path above the bridge by the 2nd stone  i.e.

14 = 9.8 * t

t = 1.428 sec and

time between 2 splash  = 2 * 1.428 = 2. 857 sec

2nd way

let time for 1st spalsh be t and

second splash be t1.

from equation of motion

so 60 = 14t + 0.5 * 9.8 * t * t

4.9 t^2 + 14t -60 = 0

On solving, we get t = 2.351 sec

for t_1, we have some extra time, which can be divided into t2 and t3.

14 = 9.8 * t2

t2 = 1.428 sec  

total time taken by 2 is

T = 1.428 + 1.428 + 2.351

so we get t_1 = 5.207 sec

time elapsed is  = T - t

                           = 5.207 - 2.351

Time elapsed   = 2.856

SECOND ROCK HAS FASTER SPEED

A dog has a mass of69kg and an acceleration of 2m/s/s. What is the force of the dog?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

<h2>138 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 69 × 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>138 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

for an object that is speeding up in the positive direction what does the displacement vs. time graph look like
avanturin [10]

For an object that is speeding up in the positive direction, its positive displacement is greater every second, and the AMOUNT greater every second is greater than the AMOUNT greater was in the previous second.

So the graph of displacement vs. time is rising as time goes on, and the rise is becoming steeper as time goes on.

The graph is <em>curving upward</em> as time goes on.
