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

The largest graduated cylinder in my lab holds 2 L and has an inner diamter (the part that holds the water) of 8 cm. When it is
mestny [16]

Answer:

<em>3924 Pa</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Volume of cylinder = 2 L = 0.002 m^3  (1000 L = 1 m^3)

diameter of the inner cylinder = 8 cm = 0.08 m  (100 cm = 1 m)

radius of the inner cylinder = diameter/2 = 0.08/2 = 0.04 m

area of the inner cylinder = \pi r^{2}

where \pi = 3.142,

and r = radius = 0.04 m

area of inner cylinder = 3.142 x 0.04^{2} = 0.005 m^2

<em>height h of the water in this cylinder = volume/area</em>

h = 0.002/0.005 = 0.4 m

<em>pressure at the bottom of the cylinder due to the height of water = pgh</em>

where

p = density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

h = height of water within this cylinder = 0.4 m

pressure = 1000 x 9.81 x 0.4 = <em>3924 Pa</em>

It's a cloudy and rainy day. The air pressure is most likely _____.
kramer
The air pressure ( or atmospheric pressure ) is the force of air over a unit of area. Changes in the air pressure causes the weather changes. High pressure usually brings good weather with dry and cool air. But in a low pressure zone warm air is rising up. This vertical movements are caused by winds high in the troposphere. Water molecules stay as a gas in warmer air. After the vertical movement they condense and bring steady continuous rain. Therefore the low pressure brings cloudly and rainy weather. Answer: The air pressure is most likely low<span>. </span>
