Explain one recent idea that scientists have proposed for how the universe began. Consider the big bounce theory or the multiver
aliya0001 [1]

The most widely accepted theory about the universe is the big bang theory.

<h3>What is big bounce theory?</h3>

The Big Bounce theory refers to the universe that is expanding and contracting, move back and forth in a big-picture timeline. The Big Bang theory was happened about 13.8 billion years ago when the universe began as a tiny, dense, ball that exploded. Many astronomers use the Big Bang theory to show how the universe began. But what caused this explosion in the first thing that is still a mystery. It has passed through many stages, which can be considered cosmological theories. The flat Earth, the geocentric model, heliocentricity, galactic centricity, the Big Bang, and the Inflationary Big Bang. In the Big Bounce theory, the universe is expanding and contracting, seesawing back and forth in a massively big-picture timeline more specific theory called "Big Bounce" theory proposes that the universe could collapse to the state where it is first started and then initiate another Big Bang.

So we can conclude that The Big Bang theory says that the universe came into being from a single more than 13 billion years ago.

The motion of a particle along a straight line is described by the equation x=6+4t2 -t 4 , where x is in meter and t is in secon
Aleks [24]

Answer:

The position of the particle is 6m

The velocity of the particle is 16 m/s in negative direction

The acceleration of the object is -40 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

motion of the particle along a straight line as x = 6 + 4t² - t⁴

The position of the object when t = 2s

x = 6 + 4(2)² - (2)⁴

x = 6 + 16 - 16

x = 6m

The velocity of the object when t = 2s

Velocity = dx/dt

dx/dt = 8t - 4t³

when t = 2s

Velocity = 8(2) - 4(2)³

Velocity = 16 - 32

Velocity = -16m/s

Velocity = 16 m/s (in negative direction)

The acceleration of the object when t = 2s

Acceleration = d²x/dt² = 8 - 12t²

Acceleration = 8 - 12 (2)²

Acceleration =  -40 m/s²

Determine the torque applied to the shaft of a car that transmits 225 hp
Arisa [49]

Incomplete question.The complete question is here

Determine the torque applied to the shaft of a car that transmits 225 hp and rotates at a rate of 3000 rpm.

Answer:

Torque=0.51 Btu

Explanation:

Given Data

Power=225 hp

Revolutions =3000 rpm

To find

T( torque )=?

Solution

As

T(Torque)=\frac{W(Work)}{2\pi n(Revolutions) }

As force moves an object through a distance, work is done on the object. Likewise, when a torque rotates an object through an angle, work is done.

So

T=\frac{225*42.207}{2\pi 3000}\\ T=0.51 Btu

Which of the following equations represents the law of universal gravitation
Xelga [282]
<span>Newton's law of universal gravitation is an INVERSE SQUARE LAW, which rules out C and D.It is proportional to the masses involved, which rules out B.A could be seen as one form of the lawF=G m1 m1/r^2Though I recognise it more as F=G m1 m2/r^2.G is the universal gravity constant and is distinct from g which is the acceleration of gravity LOCAL to a planet or moon. So, g is LOCAL, G is universal.Newton was a smart bloke, as are all these scientists whose names frequently appear.
