<h2>Answer:</h2>

False:

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Jet streams are like rivers of wind high above in the atmosphere which have a huge influence on climate because they can push air masses and affect weather patterns. Jet streams travel in the tropopause which is the boundary between the turbulent troposphere and the calm, cold stratosphere. So we can say that jet streams lie in stratosphere and not in mesosphere.

The best scientific reason for a scientist to accept a specific theory is?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The theory is supported by all the available observations and data.

Explanation: The scientific community will accept a theory when a sufficient body of evidence supports it. This includes experiments that refute other potential theories. Experiments should also be carried out that attempt to disprove the theory but cannot.

It should not matter who proposed the theory or who supports it, and instead should entirely be based on the quality and abundance of data supporting it.

Hope this helps!

A stone thrown horizontally from a height of 5.72 m hits the ground at a distance of 13.30 m. Calculate the initial speed of the
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

initial velocity=12.31 m/s

Final speed= 16.234 m/s

Explanation:

Given Data

height=5.72 m

distance=13.30 m

To Find

Initial Speed=?

Solution

Use the following equation to determine the time of the stone is falling.  

d = vi ×t   ½ ×9.8 × t²

Where  

d = 5.72m and vi = 0 m/s

so  

5.72 = ½× 9.8 ×t²

t = √(5.72 ÷ 4.9)

t=1.08 seconds

To determine the initial horizontal velocity use the following equation.

d = v×t

13.30 = v ×1.08

v = 13.30 ÷ 1.08

v=12.31 m/s

To determine stone’s final vertical velocity use the following equation

vf = vi+9.8×t............vi=0 m/s

vf = 9.8×1.08

vf= 10.584 m/s

To determine stone’s final speed use the following equation  

Final speed = √[Horizontal velocity²+Final vertical velocity²]

Final speed = √{(12.31 m/s)²+(10.584 m/s)²}

Final speed= 16.234 m/s

The energy of the electron in Hydrogen atom can be shown to be given by En = -13.6/n^2 eV, where n represents the principal quan
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

This represents radiation in ultra-violet region .

Explanation:

Energy of the orbit where n = 3 is given as follows

E_3 =- \frac{13.6 }{3^2}

E_3 =- \frac{13.6 }{9} = -1.511 eV

Energy of the orbit where n = 1 is given as follows

E_1 =- \frac{13.6 }{1^2}

E_1 =- \frac{13.6 }{1} = 13.6 eV

Difference of [tex]E_3 and [tex]E_1 = - 1.511+ 13.6

= 12.089 eV.

The wavelength of light having this energy in nm is given by the expression as follows

Wavelength in nm = 1244 / energy in eV

= 1244 / 12.089

= 102.90 nm

This represents radiation in ultra-violet region .

A block is sliding down an inclined plane that makes an angle of 65o with the horizontal. If the coefficient of kinetic friction
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

8.2 m/s²

Explanation:

m = mass of the block

μ = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.17

F_{n} = Normal force on the block by the ramp

f_{k} = kinetic frictional force

Force equation perpendicular to ramp surface is given as

F_{n} = mg Cos65

Kinetic frictional force is given as

f_{k} = \mu F_{n}

f_{k} = \mu mg Cos65

Force equation parallel to ramp surface is given as

mg Sin65 - f_{k} = ma

mg Sin65 - \mu mg Cos65 = ma

g Sin65 - \mu g Cos65 = a

(9.8) Sin65 - (0.17) (9.8) Cos65 = a

a = 8.2 m/s²

A cliff diver from the top of a 100 (m) cliff. He begins his dive by jumping up with a velocity of 5 (m/s) a. How
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

A.) 4.81 seconds

B.) 44.6 m/s

Explanation:

He begins his dive by jumping up with a velocity of 5 (m/s).

Let us first calculate the maximum height reached by using third equation of motion

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

At maximum height, V = 0

0 = 5^5 - 2 × 9.8H

19.6H = 25

H = 25 /19.6

H = 1.28 m

The time taken for the diver to reach the water from the maximum height can be calculated by using second equation of motion.

Where height h = 1.28 + 100 = 101.28 m

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

As the diver drop from maximum height, U = 0

101.28 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

4.9t^2 = 101.28

t^2 = 101.28/4.9

t^2 = 20.669

t = sqrt ( 20.669)

t = 4.55s

As the diver jumped up, the time taken to reach the maximum height will be

Time = 1.28 / 5 = 0.256

The time taken for him to hit the water below will be 0.256 + 4.55 = 4.81 seconds

B.) Velocity right before he hits the water will be

V^2 = U^2 + 2gH

But U = 0

V^2 = 2 × 9.8 × 101.28

V^2 = 1985.09

V = 44.6 m/s
