A hypothesis is a statement, not a question.

<em>Can swimmers hold their breath longer that people who don't swim ?</em>

I have no idea. What do you think ? <em>The hypothesis is what you think.</em>

I see three possibilities here:

1). Swimmers can hold their breath longer that non-swimmers.

2). People who don't swim can hold their breath longer than swimmers.

3). Average swimmers and average non-swimmers can generally hold their breath for the same length of time.

These are three possible hypotheses. There may be others that I didn't think of.

What do you think ? Once you decide what YOU think, you have a hypothesis. Your next job is to set up some kind of test or experiment to find out whether your hypothesis is true or not.

A 750-kg automobile is moving at 16.8 m/s at a height of 5.00 m above the bottom of a hill when it runs out of gasoline. The car

Answer:h=19.4 m

Explanation:

Given

mass of automobile $m=750\ kg$

Initial height of automobile $h_o=5\ m$

Velocity at this instant $v=16.8\ m/s$

If the car stops somewhere at a height $h$

Thus conserving total energy we get

$K_i+U_i=K_f+U_f$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh_o=\frac{1}{2}m(0)^2+mgh$

$\frac{v^2}{2g}+h_o=h$

$h=5+\frac{16.8^}{2\times 9.8}$

$h=5+14.4$

$h=19.4\ m$

Describe the agronomic significance of the upper and lower plastic limits, and of the plasticity index?

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:It shows the size of the range of the moisture contents at which the soil remains plastic. In general, the plasticity index depends only on the amount of clay present. It indicates the fineness of the soil and its capacity to change shape without altering its volume.

A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly over a time of 18 seconds for a distance of 390 m. Determine the acceleration o

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

$a=2.4\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial speed of a car, u = 0

Time, t = 18 s

Distance, d = 390 m

We need to find the acceleration of the car. Let it is a. Using the second equation of motion to find it.

$d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

$d=\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\a=\dfrac{2d}{t^2}\\\\a=\dfrac{2\times 390}{(18)^2}\\\\a=2.4\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the car is $2.4\ m/s^2$ .

How speed and position affect the energy possess by an object?

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

more speed means that an object has more energy, now if an object's place is something such as a hill, the potential energy will increase meaning an object will have more speed and acceleration. this is because you have the earth's gravity helping you out when the object goes downhill, giving it the higher potential energy
