What might cause a theory to change over time?

Physics
1 answer:
Olin [163]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A theory does not change into a scientific law with the accumulation of new or better evidence. A theory will always remain a theory

Explanation:

theories and laws could potentially be falsified by countervailing evidence. Theories and laws are also distinct from hypotheses.

tangare [24]

Answer:

  • <u>77.8 m/s, downward</u>

Explanation:

For uniform acceleration motion, the average speed is equal to half the soum of the initial velocity, Vi, and the final velocity, Vf

  • Average speed = (Vf + Vi)/2

Also, by definition, the average speed is the distance divided by the time:

  • Average speed = distance / time

Then:

  • (Vf + Vi)/2 = 300m/6.62s

Other kinematic equation for uniform acceleration is:

  • Vf = Vi + a×t

Since the window is falling and the air resistance is ignored, a = g (gravitational acceleration ≈ 9.8m/s²)

Replacing the known values we can set a system of two equations:

From (Vf + Vi)/2 = 300m/6.62s

(Vf + Vi) = 2 × 300m/6.62s

  • Vf + Vi = 90.634      equation 1

From Vf = Vi + a×t

Vf - Vi = 9.8 (6.62)

  • Vf - Vi = 64.876     equation 2

Adding the two equations:

  • 2Vf = 155.510

  • Vf = 77.8 m/s downward (velocities must be reported with their directions)

The half-life of the reaction gets shorter as the initial concentration is increased. True or False
Art [367]

True

The half-life isn’t applicable to a first order reaction because it does not rely on the concentration of reactant present. However the 2nd order reaction is dependent on the concentration of the reactant present.

The relationship between the half life and the reactant is an inverse one.

The half life is usually reduced or shortened with an increase in the concentration and vice versa.

Explanation:

At 12 noon position is zero radian on Monday

at 12 midnight the position is π/2

at 11 am position on Tuesday is 2π/24 x 23 ( after 23 hours ) = 6..02 radian.

asambeis [7]

Answer:

Velocity remains the same at 104 m/s

Explanation:

According to Newton's 1st law of motion, an object subjected to no force or net force equal 0 would maintain its velocity. In our case the crew shuts off the power, spaceship is in space and far from all other objects (so no gravity whatsoever) would have no force acting on it. Therefore its velocity would stay the same at 104 m/s
