For the first question you could devise a way to test the question to find the answer. You could create a sample of black cats, a sample of white cats, and a control sample of a both black and white cats. 
<span>You would measure how much the cats eat each day. The study could be repeated or reviewed by your peers. </span>

<span>For the second question, there is currently no way to sample a person's thoughts, but even if there was a way, there would be no way to repeat the moment. It is not testable and not repeatable and thus cannot use the scientific method. </span>

<span>Calories can be measured and compared. </span>

<span>The tide can be observed until someone hypothesizes the right testable notion to determine the answer.</span>

Decompose the forces acting on the block into components that are parallel and perpendicular to the ramp. (See attached free body diagram. Forces are not drawn to scale)

• The net force in the parallel direction is

∑ <em>F</em> (para) = -<em>mg</em> sin(21°) - <em>f</em> = <em>ma</em>

• The net force in the perpendicular direction is

∑ <em>F</em> (perp) = <em>n</em> - <em>mg</em> cos(21°) = 0

Solving the second equation for <em>n</em> gives

<em>n</em> = <em>mg</em> cos(21°)

<em>n</em> = (0.200 kg) (9.80 m/s²) cos(21°)

<em>n</em> ≈ 1.83 N

Then the magnitude of friction is

<em>f</em> = <em>µn</em>

<em>f</em> = 0.25 (1.83 N)

<em>f</em> ≈ 0.457 N

Solve for the acceleration <em>a</em> :

-<em>mg</em> sin(21°) - <em>f</em> = <em>ma</em>

<em>a</em> = (-0.457N - (0.200 kg) (9.80 m/s²) sin(21°))/(0.200 kg)

<em>a</em> ≈ -5.80 m/s²

so the block is decelerating with magnitude

<em>a</em> = 5.80 m/s²

down the ramp.

A person is placed in a large, hollow, metallic sphere that is insulated from ground. (a) If a large charge is placed on the sph
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is given that the sphere is insulated from ground and a large charge is placed on the sphere. The charge on the hollow sphere will always remain on the outer surface of the sphere and there will be no charge on the inner surface of the sphere.

If a person touches the inner surface of the sphere then he will not be harmed as there is no charge on the inner surface of the sphere.

If a person carries the charge of the opposite sign of the same magnitude then the sphere and person get neutralized upon touching the sphere.

If a person does not touches the sphere then the charge on the outer surface will be zero and there will be a positive charge on the inner surface of the sphere

A large helium filled balloon is used as the center piece for a graduation party. The balloon alone has a mass of 222 kg and it
inn [45]

Answer:

The buoyant force is 3778.8 N in upward.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of balloon = 222 Kg

Volume = 328 m³

Density of air = 1.20 kg/m³

Density of helium = 0.179 kg/m³

We need to calculate the buoyant force acting

Using formula of buoyant force

F_{b}=\rho_{air}\times V_{b}\times g

Where, \rho_{air} = density of air

V = Volume of balloon

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value into the formula

F_{b}=1.20\times321\times9.81

F_{b}=3778.8\ N

This buoyant force is in upward direction.

Hence, The buoyant force is 3778.8 N in upward.

An object is allowed to fall freely near the surface of a planet. The object has an acceleration due to gravity of 24 m/s2. How
Alborosie

Answer:

12 m

Explanation:

The object is in uniformly accelerated motion, so the distance covered can be found using the following suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the distance

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

For this problem,

g=24 m/s^2

and

u = 0, since we are considering the first second of motion

So, substituting t = 1 s, we find

s=0+\frac{1}{2}(24)(1)^2=12 m

An electric field of intensity 3.80 kN/C is applied along the x-axis. Calculate the electric flux through a rectangular plane 0.
lakkis [162]

Answer: 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1

Explanation: The electric flux, electric field intensity and area are related by the formulae below.

Φ= EAcosθ,

Where Φ= electric flux (Nm²c^-1)

E =electric field intensity (N/m²)

A = Area (m²)

θ= this is angle between the planar area and the magnetic flux

For our question E=3.80KN/c= 3800 N/c

A= 0.700 x 0.350= 0.245m²

θ= 0° ( this is because the electric field was applied along the x axis, thus the electric flux will be parallel to the area).

Hence Φ= 3800 x 0.245 x cos(0)

= 3800 x 0.245 x 1 (value of cos 0° =1)

= 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1

Thus the electric field is 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1
