Why are scientific theories changed but never thrown away

All theories have some proof to them and their roots. Although, as science becomes more advanced, we begin to realise that there are some things that we either interpreted wrong, or have since been changed.

Hope this helps! <3

A playground slide is inclined 40°. If a boy with a mass of 32 kg slides down for -3meters. How much work is done by gravity on
telo118 [61]

Answer:

the work done by gravity on the boy is 604.62 J

Explanation:

Given;

distance the boy slides, d = 3 m

angle of inclination of the playground, θ = 40⁰

mass of the boy, m = 32 kg

The vertical height, h, above the ground through which the boy falls represents the height of the triangle which is the opposite side.

The distance through which the boy slides, d, represents the hypotenuse side of the right triangle.

sin \theta = \frac{opposite }{hypotenuse} \\\\sin \theta = \frac{h}{d} \\\\h = dsin\theta\\\\h = 3 \times sin(40^0)\\\\h = 1.928 \ m

The work done by gravity on the boy is calculated as;

W = P.E = mgh

             = 32kg x 9.8m/s² x 1.928m

             = 604.62 J

Therefore, the work done by gravity on the boy is 604.62 J

If, in
STatiana [176]

Answer:

a)   λ = 121.5 nm , b) 102.6, 97, 91.1 nm

Explanation:

Bohr's model describes the energy of the hydrogen atom

      E_{n} = k² e² / 2m (1 / n²)

A transition occurs when the electron passes from n level to a lower one

       E_{i} -  E_{n} = k² e² / 2m (1 / n_{i}² - 1 /  n_{f}²)

Planck's relationship is

        E = h f = h c / lam

        hc /λ =  k² e²/ 2m(1 / n_{i}² - 1 /  n_{f}²)

        1 / λ = [k² e² / 2m h c] (1 / n_{i}² - 1 /  n_{f}²)

        1 /λ = Ry] (1 / n_{i}² - 1 /  n_{f}²)

a) the first element of the series occurs for n_{f} = 2

        1 / λ = 1.097 10⁷ (1- 1/2²)

        1 / λ = 1.097 10⁷ (1- 0.25)

        1 / λ = 0.82275 10⁷

        λ = 1.215 10⁻⁷ m

        λ = 1,215 10⁻⁷ m (10⁹nm / m)

        λ = 121.5 nm

b) the next elements of the series occur to

n_{f}       n_{i}    1 /λ                            λ (10-7m)       λ (nm)

3        1     1,097 10⁷ (1-1 / 9)     1,0255           102.6

4        1     1,097 10⁷ (1-1 / 16)   0.9723            97.2

∞       1      1,097 10⁷ (1 - 0)     0.91158           91.1

What can you infer about a wave with a short wavelength? Question 5 options: It has a low amplitude. It has a high amplitude. It
Galina-37 [17]

Option C is correct. It has a high frequency. Wavelength is inversly proportional to the frequency. For short-wavelength, the frequency will be high.

<h3>Describe the connection between wavelength & frequency?</h3>

Frequency and wavelength have an inverse connection with one another. As a result, the wave with a high frequency should have a short wavelength.

For short-wavelength, the frequency will be high.

Hence Option C is correct. It has a high frequency.

To learn more about the frequency refer  to the link;
