Thermal energy is the answer
<span>A rock is dropped from a sea cliff and hits the water 3.2s later. How high is the cliff?
t = sqrt(2y/g)
3.2 = sqrt(2y/9.81)
y = 50.23 m
</span><span>How long would it take sound to travel the same distance?
t = 50.23 / </span><span>343 m/s
t = 0.15 s
</span><span>How long would it take light to travel this distance?
t = 50.23 / </span><span>299 792 458 m / s
t = 1.68x10^-7 s</span>
A hypothesis proposes a mechanism of change that can be tested. If the results indicate the hypothesized mechanism is not the one in operation it narrows the field and we know more. A falsified hypothesis tested by a well designed experiment still provides real evidence about the world.
<span>It was once thought that maggots spontaneously arose from carrion. This was tested and falsified providing evidence this was not how new generations of flies appeared. This still left the question of how flies generated new life to be explored. One falsified hypothesis does not block further research into the question.
</span><span>Even a failed hypothesis can increase scientific knowledge if done correctly. By knowing this hypothesis is not how something works, you save time for future scientists and can now use your effort in other investigations. That is the real value of hypothesis that are not supported by evidence.</span>
Answer:
5.5 to 7 Mohs
Explanation:
Glass ranks around 5.5 to 7 Mohs, but sapphire crystal has a hardness of 9 Mohs, making it only slightly less hard than diamond.
Answer:
if the speed of the object triples the kinetic energy becomes nine times the initial kinetic energy. If the speed of an object changes by a factor k, the change in the kinetic energy is of a factor k^2.
Explanation:
