The differences between models and scientific laws and theories.

Physics
1 answer:
pogonyaev3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

A scientific theory can be said to mean a set of statements that are developed through a process of continued abstractions. These theories are aimed at a generalized statement usually used in explaining a phenomenon. A theory is quite concerned about the truth, much more than being understood. They are not expected to be stories

A model, on the other hand, is a purposeful representation of reality. They provide a local understanding of any given phenomenon. Models are more particular about being understood, rather than the truth

NeTakaya

Water evaporates at 100⁰C

So change in temperature = 100-20 = 80⁰C

Amount of water to be evaporated = 1 liter = 1L*1kg/liter = 1 kg

Specific heat of water is 1 calorie/gram ⁰C = 4.186 joule/gram =4186 J/kg

So heat required E = mcΔT = 1 * 4186 *80= 334880 J =334.88 kJ

So amount of heat require to evaporate water = 334.88 kJ

3. What exerts a greater force on the table of 2 kg book lying flat or a 2 kg book on its
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

A book on its side exerts a greater force.

Explanation:

Pressure = Force / Area

Assuming that 1kg = 10N

2kg = 20N

Area of book lying flat = 0.3m × 0.2m

                                     = 0.6m²

Pressure of book lying flat = 20N / 0.6m²

                                            = 30Pa (1 s.f.)

Area of book on its side = 0.2m × 0.05m

                                        = 0.01m²

Pressure of book on its side = 20N / 0.01m²

                                               = 2000Pa (1 s.f.)

Since 2000Pa (1 s.f.) > 30Pa (1 s.f.), a book on its side applies greater pressure than lying flat.
